The lead actors Sidharth and Kiara have left everybody stunned and with tearful eyes in the end. The film took hearts of many audiences and was watched in over 4100 Indian towns and cities as well as in 210 countries and territories around the world according to the reports.

Sidharth Malhotra took to his instagram handle to post all the behind the scene videos and the music of his new release throughout, after the movie was loved by the audience. People mostly appreciated the bonding that was shown between Captain Vikram Batra and Dimple Cheema which was acted by Sid and Kiara.

Vijay Subramaniam, Director and Head, Content, Amazon Prime Video, India also shares his thoughts for the film. He says, “We have always believed in content being paramount and seeing Shershaah’s resounding success further strengthens what we, as a service, have set out to do. It was important for us to bring the inspiring story of braveheart Captain Vikram Batra and the Indian army during the Kargil war to audiences far and wide. The movie is a tribute to these sons and daughters of the soil for whom nothing matters more than the love for the country. Shershaah is a very special film and we are absolutely delighted to see it receive such an unprecedented amount of love and success from all corners.”

Karan Johar also penned down a heartful of words for the fans,says, “Shershaah has always been

While talking of the film, Sandeep says that the film reviews say that Kiara had really less scenes in the film and her character was “reduced” to just playing the girlfriend of Captain Vikram Batra. But to this the writer had a different point of view, where he said it was just the perfect timing and role to capture the ‘essence’ of their relationship, considering how little time Dimple and Vikram had actually spent with each other.

In an interview with News18 Sandeep said, “When I was doing my research, and I interacted with Dimple, she said that Captain Batra and she knew each other for four years but the time they spent together was just about 40 days. I think that we have captured the essence of those 40 days, which means a lot to the wonderful lady whom I have a lot of respect. It is the essence of her feelings that is coming through the way Kiara has played the character, and that’s what’s really sticking to people.”

He then added, “So I do not think there was a need to add anything. It’s just the right amount. She is a very integral part of Captain Vikram Batra’s life, you cannot tell his story without his relationship with Dimple, and without what he did in the war. I think what we have done is struck the right balance. There are also so many views, which are just the contrary and they are saying that it is a perfect blend of his personal life and his life as a soldier.”

This depicts that the screenplay writer has done a lot of homework on the life of Captain Batra, for making this film the way it is.
