In the recently released promo, talking about Operation Sindoor, Col Sofiya Qureshi says, “Pakistan yeh karta chala araha hai. Toh jawab dena banta tha sir. Isiliye Operation Sindoor ko plan kiya gaya. (Pakistan has been doing this for years; it was important to answer back, which is why Operation Sindoor was planned.)” Wing Commander Vyomika Singh said, “Raat ko ek baj kar paanch minute se lekar dedh baje tak, pachhis minute me khel khatam kar diya. (At night, between 1:05 am to 1:30 am, in just 25 minutes, we ended their game.)” Commander Prerna Deosthalee also added, “Targets were destroyed and koi bhi civilians ko koi harm nahi hua tha. (Targets were destroyed and no civilians were harmed.) Sofiya then went on to say, “This is a new India, with a new mindset.”

In the promo, Amitabh Bachchan was also seen chanting “Bharat Mata Ki Jai” along with the audience as he welcomed the officers on the show. Operation Sindoor was executed by India against Pakistan. The defence operation was executed after the unfortunate Pahalgham Terror Attacks in Kashmir that claimed the lives of 26 people.
