Amidst this, Tamil Nadu State BJP President K Annamalai has lauded the Rajkumar Perisamy directorial. “Happened to watch the movie ‘Amaran’. This is a very important one in many aspects. The bravery, courage and the integrity that our men in uniform display. The vivid portrayal of the cost a family pays when our nation’s best sacrifices themselves to protect the rest of us. Why some will always be more special than the rest of us – because they wear their uniform with pride and willingly go into harm’s way. The emotional toil and pain – the family of an army man will carry but with pride. Major. Mukund Varadharajan’s life is an inspiring story for the ages. His ultimate sacrifice for our nation in 2014 made all of us feel that we had lost something within us, as I distinctly remember those emotional moments as I was in my Khaki then,” he wrote on social media.
