Actor Janhvi Kapoor has shared a special post dedicated to retired flight lieutenant Gunjan Saxena on her birthday. Janhvi plays her in an upcoming film on her life titled, Gunjan Saxena – The Kargil Girl.
Calling Gunjan's story rousing and daring, Janhvi imparted an image to her on Instagram on Saturday. "Happy Birthday Gunjan mam! Thank you for teaching me the true meaning of bravery, the importance of working hard and sincerely and for paving the way for millions of women in our country. You're an inspiration and a hero, without ever having tried to be. Your story has helped me believe in myself, and hopefully will help others too," she inscribed the image.
The photograph indicates Janhvi in her outfit from the film while Gunjan is found in a blue salwar suit. Both are seen grinning for the camera. Janhvi's fans adored her image with Gunjan and expressed gratitude toward her for acquainting them with her. "Real Gunjan Saxena with reel Gunjan Saxena omg so beautiful," wrote one. "Can't wait to see you playing Gunjan Saxena onscreen," composed another.
