It's heartwarming to see such genuine support between co-stars. Janhvi and Varun's friendship is so cute! The film's collections are insane, crossing 190cr already. Well deserved success.

Respect to the entire team. Films like these remind us of the sacrifices of our armed forces. However, I hope the focus remains on the soldiers' story and not just the star power. A bit too much hero-centric promotion sometimes.

The box office numbers are phenomenal! 57cr on a single Sunday is no joke. The Republic Day holiday definitely gave it a huge push. Great to see patriotic films doing so well.

Sunny Deol is back in his element! The combination of him and Varun worked wonders. The scene where they stand together gave me chills. Anurag Singh has directed it brilliantly.

Diljit's cameo was a surprise package! And Ahan Shetty held his own amongst these veterans. The film's message "Love will always triumph over hate" is so relevant today. Must watch!
