‘Surgical Strike is Something We’re Proud of’ Says Vicky Kaushal

Vicky Kaushal, who is set to give yet another enthralling performance in Uri, says the forthcoming film is based on an incident that left a deep impact on every Indian. The film bravely brings back the real-life chapter of the surgical strikes of 2016 carried out by the Indian Armed Forces and the actor says that the significant event is something that “we all are proud of”.

“When we come to people who are securing us, they can be attacked so mercilessly. When they are sleeping in their tents unarmed, that’s when they got attacked and it’s just an episode where the army took a stand that it won’t be taken down silently. And they did a surgical strike in ten days with official planning and it was the most covertly performed operations and at the same time it’s something we all are proud of,” Vicky said in an email interview.

“Even the youth knows what happened, so do the elders. It just happened two years back and we all saw it on TVs or read it in newspapers and we were affected by it. This film just shows what happened behind the closed doors and how it all happened, how it all took place, all teams came together and all of that. That’s ‘Uri’ for you,” he added.

The film’s trailer has been received well not just by critics but also by some of the political parties.

To that, Vicky Kaushal said: “See, the thing is that any film that is made, it is made for the audience. It’s not for any political party. It’s just for the audience.” (IANS)
