Tailbone fracture is no joke, it hurts like crazy just sitting down. Can't imagine doing action sequences with that. Hats off to his dedication. Hope he's fully healed soon.

The film is fantastic! But honestly, this makes me think about the safety protocols on set. If an A-list star can get hurt this badly, what about the junior artists and crew? The industry needs to do better.

Saw the movie on Republic Day. The passion shows on screen. When you see actors going through such pain to get the shot right, you appreciate the final product even more. Get well soon, Varun!

This just shows the commitment of the team to do justice to the story of the 1971 war and our soldiers. A small injury for an actor, but a great tribute to the massive sacrifices made. Jai Hind!
