JP Dutta ji, thank you for trusting me with the most emotional role of Dimple. This was one of my most memorable experiences as an actor. Working opposite Abhishek for the first time @bachchan, where he played Vikram Batra to perfection (AB it’s 20 to us too as co-actors) was simply an unforgettable journey filming LOC Kargil. Congratulations to the entire star cast and team… Salute Jai Hind… yeh dil mange more.”
