Television actor Shaheer Sheikh expressed gratitude to the Indian Army after revealing his concern for his family's safety in Jammu amid escalating tensions between India and Pakistan. The conflict intensified after Pakistan launched a series of drone and missile attacks targeting key military installations in Jammu, Pathankot, and Udhampur in response to Operation Sindoor.
The actor, who hails from Bhaderwah in Jammu, revealed through a heartfelt social media post that he hadd been experiencing "sleepless nights" due to worry for his family's safety, as they continue to reside in the conflict-prone region.
On Monday, taking to his Instagram story, Shaheer wrote, "Eternally indebted to our armed forces! My mother & sister are in Jammu...& the attacks gave us all sleepless nights. But to see the precision, swiftness and bravery with which our forces responded is remarkable. I can only imagine what the families of a soldier go through when their 'own' is on the frontline."

He added, "Hats off to the soldiers, hats off to their families. This bravery on and outside of the battlefield is what keeps our country & its countrymen safe. My sincere condolences to the people who lost their loved ones in these trying times. Jai Hind."
