Along with the video, the actor wrote a long caption and revealed the challenges they faced while shooing for the scene. He wrote, “Recreating the Kargil war. This scene was particularly shot to give the audience a real life experience of challenges faced by our Indian army soldiers, while keeping in mind Vikram Batra’s character. We were shooting at actual locations after having done multiple drills on military gun firing and grenade handling. The feeling of breathlessness is quite natural at 12,000 ft above sea level, although the Indian army troops are stationed at a much higher peak. #Shershaah #BehindTheScenes #MakingOfShershaah” Take a look:

But right now I am just enjoying the fact that people are enjoying my work and the craft. I think it’s one of the most prestigious awards that an actor can receive from the government. I am not really thinking about it as of now, but just really soaking in the love and the appreciation that is coming to the film.”
