When I first met the captain, I was taken by his pleasant smile and simplicity. Then I saw a scar on his neck. I asked him about it and he simply and politely told me, “The hijackers have seven guns and they cannot heal the wound.” I was transfixed. He smiled. I knew I was talking to a real-life hero. It was a great honour to be able to portray Captain Devi Sharan on screen. Her efforts to save lives amidst chaos and fear are truly inspiring! A story of resilience and honour, of critical thinking and duty, of patience and hope and above all, of bravery. We salute you, Captain.”
