After a prolonged silence marked by a series of blank posts on X (formerly Twitter), veteran actor Amitabh Bachchan has finally spoken out regarding the recent India-Pakistan tensions and Operation Sindoor. In a heartfelt post, he recounted the harrowing Pahalgam terror attack from the perspective of a widow who witnessed her husband’s brutal killing. Bachchan drew upon his father Harivansh Rai Bachchan’s poetry to honor the Indian Armed Forces and their response through Operation Sindoor.
In his post, Bachchan wrote:
“While celebrating the holidays, that demon dragged an innocent husband and wife outside. He stripped the husband naked, and after fulfilling his so-called religious duty, when he started shooting him, the wife, falling to her knees and crying, pleaded again and again, ‘Don’t kill my husband.’ But that cowardly demon, with extreme cruelty, shot her husband – making her a widow.”
He concluded with a tribute to the Indian Army, invoking his father’s poem:
