India’s decisive military strike, ‘Operation Sindoor’, carried out across Pakistan and Pakistan-occupied Jammu and Kashmir (PoJK), has drawn wide support from across the country — including from some of the biggest names in the film industry.
Launched in response to the April 22 Pahalgam terror attack that left 26 dead, the operation is being hailed as a strong, unambiguous statement against terrorism.
In the early hours of Wednesday, the Indian Army launched this high-precision mission, targeting multiple terror camps believed to be run by groups like Jaish-e-Mohammed (JeM) and Lashkar-e-Taiba (LeT).
According to sources, nine such camps were neutralised in the swift offensive, which was reportedly monitored through the night by Prime Minister Narendra Modi himself.
As news of the operation broke, the country rallied behind its armed forces. On social media, a wave of patriotic messages poured in — and the film industry was no exception.
Veteran superstar Rajinikanth took to X (formerly Twitter) to show his solidarity. “The fighter’s fight begins… No stopping until the mission is accomplished! The entire NATION is with you. Jai Hind!” he declared, tagging both the Prime Minister’s Office and the Home Ministry.
