Tension between India and Pakistan has been at its peak at the border areas. Amid this veteran actor Anupam Kher shared an emotional video revealing why he felt “heavy-hearted” before leaving for an international trip. The actor is scheduled to attend Cannes Film Festival 2025 for the premiere of his directorial Tanvi- The Great.
Kher admitted that his heart felt uneasy — a feeling rooted not in personal anxiety, but in his deep connection to his country. Taking to Instagram handle, Kher posted a video of him writing, “Country is the only one that can make you feel strong! Just like that! My mind was a little heavy, so I thought I should talk to you people from my heart. And didn't realize the video got longer! If you like it then watch it completely! If you like it more then share it too! Jai Hind! Hail India! #India #Hindustan.”
