Rajinikanth commended Prime Minister Narendra Modi for the successful execution of 'Operation Sindoor', stating, "The fighter's fight begins... No stopping until the mission is accomplished! The entire NATION is with you. @PMOIndia @HMOIndia #OperationSindoor JAI HIND," on X.

Akshay Kumar also shared his support, posting, "Jai Hind. Jai Mahakaal" alongside a message about 'Operation Sindoor' on his official X account.

Kangana Ranaut, who is also a Member of Parliament from Mandi, reiterated the government's commitment to a "zero tolerance" policy against terrorism. She expressed her wishes for the safety and success of the armed forces on her Instagram Stories, stating, "May god protect those who protect us. #operationsindoor."

Allu Arjun, known for his role in 'Pushpa', also voiced his support, stating, "May justice be served. Jai Hind #OperationSindoor" on X.

Pawan Kalyan, the Deputy Chief Minister of Andhra Pradesh and actor, quoted lines from the nationalist poet Ramdhari Singh Dinkar's poem, emphasizing the importance of bravery. He expressed gratitude towards the military leadership for their decisive action in 'Operation Sindoor'.

Sidharth Malhotra, known for his role in 'Shershaah', also shared his thoughts on Instagram, stating, "Zero Tolerance for Terrorism. Jai Hind Ki Sena."
