To honor the milestone, Shroff took to Instagram, posting a video on his story that featured some of his memorable dialogues from the film, evoking nostalgia among fans and celebrating his impactful role.
‘Mission Kashmir’, directed by Vidhu Vinod Chopra and co-written by Chopra and Vikram Chandra, told the powerful story of a young boy, Altaaf Khan, portrayed by Hrithik Roshan. Altaaf’s life takes a tragic turn when his family is accidentally killed during a raid led by police officer Inayat Khan, played by Sanjay Dutt.
Inayat, feeling remorse, adopts Altaaf, raising him as his own. However, as Altaaf matures and uncovers the truth about his family’s death, he becomes embroiled in terrorism, with vengeance becoming his driving force. With an intense storyline and strong performances from the lead cast, ‘Mission Kashmir’ went on to become the third-highest-grossing film of 2000.
