The twenty-one-year-old Arun Khetarpal showed extreme bravery in the face of fierce and unrelenting attacks by the Pakistani military during the 1971 India-Pakistan war. Khetarpal was honoured with India’s most-prestigious and highest-standard military medal for courage and gallantry – the Param Vir Chakra, posthumously.
Meanwhile, actor Varun Dhawan also took to his official Twitter handle to wish the lieutenant on his birthday. Through the post, Varun announced the news of his forthcoming film.
The note reads, “Happy Birthday 2/lt #ARUNKHETARPAL. It’s always been my dream to play a soldier of INDIA. This is my most important film! Can’t wait to be directed by the mad genius Sriram Raghavan one more time, to bring to big screen the life of 2/lt #ARUNKHETARPAL. Can’t wait to begin working with Dinoo Vijan my producer, who always has a vision but this time with emotion. Hope to make you proud #MukeshKhetarpal and #Poonahorse. JAI HIND.
