Talking about reciting the verses for the tribute to the Indian Army, he says, "When it came to giving voice to the undying spirit and the sheer passion that's manifested by our soldiers, when it comes to fighting to protect one's country from the enemies of the land, I grabbed this opportunity with both hands."

He added, "Their contribution to society is unmatched and beyond measure, so this is my way of thanking them and paying homage to them for doing what they do selflessly."

The film presents a well-rounded story of the spirit of the army and also the contribution of the soldiers' support system, their families. It captures the emotional strength of war widows and is Vivek's thank you letter to the warriors of war and has been co-produced by him.
