On her Instagram stories, she said, "Unhone kaha tha Modi ko bata dena. Aur Modi ne inko bata diya (They said tell Modi. Now Modi has responded to them) #operationsindoor.” 
 
Speaking to news agency ANI, Kangana Ranaut noted, "The country is in a war and we are all nervous.

Operation Sindoor  Terrorist infrastructure located at nine different sites in Pakistan and Pakistan-occupied Jammu and Kashmir (PoJK) were targeted by the Indian armed forces in the early hours of Wednesday.
