When Real met Reel: Janhvi Kapoor Pens Heartfelt Post for Gunjan Saxena

It was yesterday that the makers of Gunjan Saxena: The Kargil Girl released the first posters of Janhvi Kapoor’s look in the film. The biopic is based on the first woman pilot to fly into the combat zone during the 1999 Kargil War. Janhvi looked plausible in the uniform of an IAF pilot and the posters received appreciation from fans all over. Besides, the Kapoor siblings too couldn't resist showering their lovely Janhvi with words of appreciation.

As the real-life Gunjan Saxena celebrates her birthday today, Janhvi took to her official social media to pen down a sweet note to wish her. She also shared an unseen picture with Gunjan, clad in the Indian Air Force uniform. 

Janhvi wrote, “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.”
