We’ve just finished an extensive outdoor photoshoot with Sidharth Malhotra and Kiara Advani. It’s been a long day’s work and while everyone else is close to exhaustion, the cover stars are raring to go. They are crackling with palpable energy. Maybe it’s the black coffee they’re having, maybe it’s the excitement for their big release Shershaah, maybe it’s just the way they are... Their energy is something we could use in large measures, right now. Exhausted as we are from the heat outside. As they sit down for a chat in their suite at the Taj Lands End, we can clearly see the pride in their eyes. They’ve put in a lot of hard work in the film and can’t wait for the world to witness the heroic tale of the Kargil martyr, Captain Vikram Batra (PVC). Amazon Prime Video’s Shershaah is a biopic on a braveheart who gave up his life for his country during the Kargil War. The trailer of the film was unanimously appreciated. It gave a good idea of the blood and sweat Sidharth has put in to portray his character convincingly. Kiara Advani plays Dimple Cheema, the martyr’s fiance and his biggest emotional support. The experience of doing this film has definitely been an enriching journey for the two actors. Hearing the real-life stories, reliving their struggles has changed their perceptions about love, life and the armed forces. What’s more, the film has also bought the two of them closer than ever before. Professionally speaking, the film has all it takes to be a complete gamechanger for both Sidharth’s and Kiara’s careers.
