Sidharth Malhotra essays the function of Capt Batra whereas Kiara Advani performs his girlfriend Dimple Cheema.
In a brand new interview, Shershaah author Sandeep Srivastava has addressed the criticism of a piece of critics who felt Kiara’s character was decreased to simply Captain Batra’s fiance, and her display screen presence was not utilized correctly. The author instructed News18, “I don’t agree with these reviews. The thing is, Kiara has done such a wonderful job that people want to see more.”
Talking about his homework for the movie, he mentioned, “When I was doing my research, and I interacted with Dimple, she said that Captain Batra and she knew each other for four years but the time they spent together was just about 40 days. I think that we have captured the essence of those 40 days, which means a lot to the wonderful lady whom I have a lot of respect. It is the essence of her feelings that is coming through the way Kiara has played the character, and that’s what’s really sticking to people. So I do not think there was a need to add anything. It’s just the right amount. She is a very integral part of Captain Vikram Batra’s life, you cannot tell his story without his relationship with Dimple, and without what he did in the war. I think what we have done is struck the right balance. There are also so many views, which are just the contrary and they are saying that it is a perfect blend of his personal life and his life as a soldier.”
In an earlier interview, Vikram’s parents-Giridhar Lal and Kamal Kanta Batra, spoke fondly of Dimple Cheema, who vowed to by no means marry after Vikram Batra’s demise. “She calls up about twice in a year on our respective birthdays,” Vikram’s father mentioned.

In one other interview, Vikram Batra’s brother Vishal had recounted, “I remember Dimple and I were having lunch together, six days before the ill-fated day. She had come to see me off; I was headed to Delhi for some work. She told me: ‘Jab Vikram vapas aa jayega toh aap hamari shaadi mein nachoge na (After Vikram comes back, you’ll dance at our wedding na)?’ I said, ‘Of course, nachunga (I will definitely dance)’,” he recalled. He had clarified that whereas the 2 weren’t engaged, the 2 households needed to marry them finally.
