I am fascinated by Army officers. It gives me immense pride to see a man or woman in any uniform. In the 14 films I have done so far, I have directly or indirectly played some roles for which I have worn the police uniform- 'Dhruva', 'Zanjeer' and more recently 'RRR'. I am standing here today only because you all fought for us," the actor said.Ram Charan also thanked officials for inviting him to the event and also the students for participating in such a noble programme."I hope to continue to do some kind of service to this country and support the Indian Army and the Navy," he concluded with an intense Jai Hind.The actor did not stop with just participating in the event.
