Veteran actor Amitabh Bachchan has finally broken his silence on the tragic Pahalgam attack with a powerful and emotionally charged message on X (formerly Twitter), saluting the Indian Armed Forces and expressing his support for Operation Sindoor — India’s retaliatory action following the brutal attack in Jammu and Kashmir. This marks the first time the legendary actor has spoken directly about the incident, following days of cryptic silence that saw him posting numbered tweets with no content since April 23.
Amitabh Bachchan breaks silence on Pahalgam Attack and Operation Sindoor with poignant post
Sharing a vivid and heart-wrenching description of the violence faced by a couple during the attack, Bachchan’s post highlighted the inhumanity of the perpetrators while echoing a poetic reference from “Pujya Babuji” – his father and famous poet, Harivanshrai Bachchan. The tweet read, “While celebrating the holidays, that monster dragged the innocent couple outside, stripped the husband naked, and after fulfilling his duty, started shooting him. Even after the wife fell on her knees and cried and requested not to kill her husband, that cowardly monster shot her husband very ruthlessly, making the wife a widow. When the wife said “Kill me too”!! So the demon said, “No! You go and tell “….”! On my daughter’s mental state, I remembered a line from a poem by Pujya Babuji: Suppose, that daughter went to “…. ” and said: ” There are ashes of the funeral pyre, the world is asking for vermilion ” .. ( Babuji’s line) So “….” I gave you the vermillion!!! OPERATION SINDOOR!!!”
The actor followed up with a stirring tribute to the Indian Army, quoting lines from one of his most impactful and iconic films, Agneepath, – “Jai Hind Jai Hind’s Army You will never stop; you will never turn back; you will never bow down Take an oath, take an oath, take an oath! Agni Path! Agni Path! Agni Path!!!”

Bachchan’s post instantly struck a chord with fans and netizens alike, many lauding his dignified silence in the immediate aftermath and now his heartfelt expression of solidarity and pride in the Armed Forces. For days, the actor had maintained a curious pattern of posting tweet numbers without any accompanying content, which many believe reflected his silent mourning and disappointment over the tragic events of April 22.
The emotional post arrives at a crucial juncture when tensions between India and Pakistan remain high. Although a ceasefire was announced by former US President Donald Trump on Saturday, reports have already surfaced suggesting that Pakistan violated the terms within hours, reigniting anger and distrust among Indian citizens. Amitabh Bachchan’s words — poetic yet piercing — have once again reminded the country of the deep emotional undercurrents this conflict stirs, not only among citizens but also in the hearts of icons who carry the voice of the nation forward.
