Anushka Sharma had said, ‘Kargil war was a very difficult war for us emotionally. I was very young at that time, but I used to get scared seeing my mother. She used to keep the news channel on all day, and when there was an announcement of casualties, she used to get sad. When my father used to call, he could not say much, but I used to keep talking about my school, friends, and everything else, without realizing that he was fighting a war. I am proud to say that I am the daughter of an army officer, more than being an actor.’
