Shershaah on Amazon Prime is getting praises and love from the audiences. Starring Sidharth Malhotra as Captain Vikram Batra, the film Shershaah traces the journey of the Vigorous Indian soldier from a young man from Palampur to the soldier who won a key victory against Pakistan-backed forces in Kashmir before he died in 1999.
As per reports in Live Hindustan, during a Ted Talk show in 2017, Vishal Batra, the twin-brother of Vikram, revealed that a Pakistani asked Captain Vikram Batra to hand over Madhuri Dixit. He revealed how his brother ferociously refused to give Madhuri to Pakistan.
“When he was going up again, his radio was intercepted by one of the Pakistani soldiers who challenged him, told him, ‘Hey Shershaah (his codename), don’t come up or you’ll have a tough time.’ That was the time Vikram thought ‘how can a Pakistani challenge me?’ And I believe true leaders are people who challenge themselves. They accept the challenge. It’s not an easy task… And that was the time that Vikram replied to this soldier that we would see in the next one hour who stays at the top. And during this course of interception by the enemy, Pakistani soldier said, ‘You know we are going to beat you. Throw you back. And we will take away one of your most famous Bollywood heroines.’
‘And that was the time when Vikram said, ‘not on’. He attacked so ferociously that he destroyed all the bunkers and before they could hoist a tricolour on the peak, Vikram lobbed a hand-grenade very softly and said, ‘To all of you with love, from Madhuri Dixit’.”
