Mumbai, August 13 – The television series ‘Jagdhatri’ has given actress Sonia Batra a fresh appreciation for India’s defence community.
Batra disclosed that when she dons the iconic warrior costume, she gains a fleeting but powerful connection with the real protectors of the country. ‘The uniform makes me pause and think about the countless lives that soldiers, police officers and sailors put on the line,’ she said.
