Amid rising tensions between India and Pakistan, cricketer Virat Kohli and his wife, actress Anushka Sharma, showed their support for the Indian Armed Forces. On Friday, Anushka posted a heartfelt message on Instagram, expressing her gratitude to the defence forces for protecting the nation. She called them the real “heroes” and thanked them for their sacrifices.

Anushka’s post said, "Eternally grateful to our Indian Armed Forces for protecting us through these times like the heroes that they are. Heartfelt gratitude to the sacrifices they and their families have made. Jai Hind" with a folded hands and heart emoji.

Shortly after, Virat Kohli also took to Instagram to praise the Indian Army. He shared a similar message, acknowledging the army’s bravery and dedication. 

His post read, 

"We stand in solidarity with, and salute our armed forces for fiercely protecting our country in these difficult times. We are forever indebted to our heroes for their unwavering bravery and heartfelt gratitude for the sacrifices they and their families make for our great nation (sic)."


These posts came just two days after India launched Operation Sindoor, targeting terrorist centers in Pakistan and Pakistan-occupied Kashmir. This action was in response to a brutal attack in Pahalgam on April 22, which killed 26 people, including tourists and a foreign national.

The day after Operation Sindoor, Pakistan retaliated with missile drone attacks targeting border areas in Jammu, Rajasthan, and Punjab. However, the Indian Army successfully stopped these threats, preventing significant damage and loss of life.
