While interacting with Col Bheemaiah P.S., Farhan gets nostalgic about his film ‘Lakshya’.
He says: “2003 is when we shot ‘Lakshya’ so before that I spent a lot of time in Ladakh mainly but now when I am here, I really feel very nostalgic about it. The time that we spent because you became a family and I think of them dearly today and I miss them a lot.”

Farhan also opens up on what amazed him during the rigorous drills and said, “From training with them, to be their buddy, to sharing stories, I’ve learned this one thing. It is difficult, to sum up, the life of a soldier in words. I had to live a day in their life. It’s a day that is going to become a part of my stories.”
He also said: “I have had an exceptionally interesting experience and I’m really glad I got to do this. It really opened my mind”.
‘Mission Frontline’ will be starting from January 20 on discovery+.
