Uri: The Surgical Strike Is Re-Releasing In Theatres And You Can Watch It For Free This Time

Before the Kabir Singh storm took over the box-office, Vicky Kaushal Uri: The Surgical Strike was the film that made us super excited about films in 2019. Whether its Vicky Kaushal’s performance or Aditya Dhar’s superb direction, all of it made Uri a phenomenal success. But apart from the cinematic aspects of the film, what really resonated with the audience was the emotional connect and genuine national pride that the films embodied.

It is to celebrate the same spirit that Uri would re-release in theaters on Kargil Diwas which is celebrated on July 26^th. The government has taken the initiative to run the film for free in 500 theatres in Maharashtra in order to inspire the youth. Talking about the incident, Aditya Dhar, the director of the film, said, “The greatest validation for any filmmaker is to know that he has inspired youngsters to think about the valor and sacrifice it's a wonderful initiative by our Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis and I’m glad people will get to see the film for free this time.”

Recently, Vicky Kaushal had shared a heartfelt message from a young fan of him and the film who revealed that he was inspired to join the Indian Army after watching the film and just wanted to make his love and respect known for the cast and crew of the film before his training next week.
