The Pulwama Attack, which happened in February this year, left the entire nation in a state of shock. Over 40 CRPF personnel were killed when a suicide bomber attacked on a convoy of vehicles with CRPF jawans sitting in them. As a tribute to the fallen heroes, a special song 'Tu Desh Mera' has been shot with many Bollywood stars including Ranbir Kapoor, Amitabh Bachchan, Aishwarya Rai Bachchan, Kartik Aaryan, Aamir Khan and others. Now joining the list of celebs who paid their tribute to the CRPF personnel martyred in the Pulwama attack is none other than Shah Rukh Khan, who reportedly shot for the four-minute video last week.
According to a report in a leading daily, the makers were following up with Shah Rukh for some time and after the shoot, the actor was grateful to feature in the video. As per a production member, Shah Rukh Khan sang these lines for 'Tu Desh Mera' – "Tere liye jiyen marein, vaade jo tujhse kiye poore sab karein. Desh ke rang mein ranga hua, kehta hai ye lahu mera, aanch bhi aaye tirange ko to beh jaaun katra-katra. Tu desh mera, main hu tera" Abhishek Mishra, MD, Happy Productions India, told the daily, “To say that we were excited by the prospect of Shah Rukh Khan joining us for the video is an understatement. He was travelling that week and was quite busy. We are grateful that he took out the time to shoot for the video. We shot Shah Rukh’s part of the video at the Mehboob Studios in Mumbai after midnight.”
