There is no bigger acknowledgement and I only hope to always be reliably and humbly in service in any which way I can be to the bravest and most honourable members of the Indian army. As somebody who came from a life far removed from military exposure, this is truly mind boggling for me”.
He further mentioned, “I only did my best as an artiste to bring authenticity to the role of a cavalier but this is fuel for a lifetime to keep giving my heart and soul to every role I essay. Conveying my deepest respect and many thanks for a lovely evening spent at the XLV Officers Mess. VEER BHOGYA VASUNDHARA. Jai hind”.

Such honors strengthen the bond between the armed forces and public figures while highlighting the regiment’s heritage and values. The tradition reflects the camaraderie, respect, and ceremonial pride deeply rooted within India’s armored formations and military culture.
