The play reaches its emotional climax when Captain Raghav makes the ultimate sacrifice during an anti-terrorist operation in Kashmir, eliminating three terrorists despite sustaining nine bullet wounds.
The powerful performances were delivered by a talented ensemble cast, including Ashish Singh, Vinay Gujjar, Sushrut Gupta, Abhishek Gujjar, Sarvjeet, Shaani Kaur and Seema Pal. The production successfully captured the essence of military valour and family bonds, receiving widespread appreciation from the audience.
The play serves as a poignant reminder of the sacrifices made by our armed forces and their families in service of the nation.
