Films like #GroundZero aren’t just stories with loud rhetoric; they bring to the screen the very real sacrifices of our soldiers and civilians. These films carry a painful truth we can’t afford to ignore. We all hope justice follows, swiftly and surely. Hope it works big time…

Emraan Hashmi’s Ground Zero is the first film in 38 years to get a red carpet premiere in Srinagar, Kashmir. Emraan had recently also spoken about the challenges he faced while portraying the character. “Every day brought new challenges. I gravitate towards roles that make me slightly nervous—because that fear pushes me to work harder. There’s always that thought on set: “I need to do something outstanding today.” That nervous energy keeps you sharp. Portraying a BSF officer for the first time meant I had to work harder physically and emotionally. The psychological state of a soldier—what they carry internally—was especially challenging to express. But that’s what ultimately shows up in the performance,” Emraan told IANS.
