"Ceasefire is fine but never forget Om Puri’s words": Why is Major Pritam Singh's advice to Hrithik Roshan in 'Lakshya' going viral after Operation Sindoor?

NEW DELHI: A scene from Bollywood actor Hrithik Roshan's super hit film 'Lakshya' is going viral on social media after Pakistan violated the ceasefire agreement yesterday. A conversation between famous actor Om Puri and Hrithik Roshan from the film is going viral.

In the film, Om Puri plays the character of Subedar Major Pritam Singh and Hrithik plays the character of Karan Shergill. "I have experience with these people; if Pakistan loses, it turns around and comes back again… if you win, don’t become careless immediately. Remember my words' - says Om Puri's character. To this, Karan Shergill replies, 'I will remember'.

After the central government announced through a press conference that an agreement has been reached on ceasefire, the Pakistani army violated the agreement and carried out drone and shell attacks on the borders of Jammu, Rajasthan and Punjab last night. Pakistan also attacked an army post in Nagrota, Jammu. India strongly condemned the attack and has instructed the army to give a strong response. It is in this context that the scene in the film is being widely circulated.

Social media is flooded with comments like 'Never trust the snake Pakistan - dialogue in the film Lakshya', 'Ceasefire is right, but don't forget Om Puri's words' - 'Even though it is a dialogue in the film, it has a real message'.
