Anupam Kher has reacted to Operation Sindoor.
Veteran actor Anupam Kher has publicly praised the Indian Army for the successful execution of Operation Sindoor, a reported military action targeting terror infrastructure across the Line of Control (LoC). The operation, though not officially detailed by the defence forces, is believed to have been a strategic response to the deadly Pahalgam attack in Jammu and Kashmir on April 22 that killed 22 tourists.
Anupam Kher took to X (formerly Twitter) to write, “Bharat Mata Ki Jai #OperationSindoor.”

The actor’s message followed shortly after the Ministry of Defence announced that the Indian Air Force had successfully targeted multiple terror sites located in Pakistan-occupied Kashmir (PoK) and Pakistan’s Bahawalpur region. Conducted from within Indian airspace, the strikes were characterised by officials as “measured and non-escalatory.”
The Indian Army later confirmed the action with a post from its official handle stating, “Justice is served. Jai Hind.” Prominent political leaders, including Union Ministers Kiren Rijiju and Bandi Sanjay Kumar, commended the military response, calling it a fitting tribute to the victims of the Pahalgam attack.
Sources revealed that Operation Sindoor, led by the Indian Armed Forces, eliminated at least 17 terrorists and left over 60 injured. The precision airstrikes were said to have hit strategic terror-linked locations in Kotli, Ahmadpur Sharqia, Muzaffarabad, Muridke, and Faisalabad. Defence officials stressed that the mission was carefully executed to avoid provocation and specifically excluded Pakistani military installations.
