Mumbai, May 14 (NationPress) Television actor Karan Jotwani has voiced his profound concern and affection for the boys he encountered at Dal Lake, Srinagar, in light of the recent terror-related unrest. He aspires for their safety, tranquility, and a future filled with love, despite the challenges they've faced.

Karan shared a series of photographs from his visit to Dal Lake on Instagram. In one image, the actor is captured embracing some young boys he met during his visit in 2019.

“I often reflect on these wonderful boys from Dal, Srinagar. Recently, my thoughts have been more frequent due to the terror incidents, blackouts, and the ongoing anxiety about what might occur next,” he stated.

The actor recounted his encounter with them in 2019.

“I met them in 2019 and the photographs fail to capture the emotions I felt while at the boathouses, playing and finally attending the wedding of the owner’s daughter. If you ever visit, the Switzerland boathouse at Dal is the warmest place. We just didn’t want to part ways, and the little one overwhelmed me with hugs.”

Karan shared a heartfelt wish for those he deeply cares about.

“I can only pray that as life unfolds for them, amidst everything they’ve witnessed, they receive love and compassion multiplied from everyone they meet. I eagerly look forward to visiting them again. It’s been a nerve-wracking time. My extended family lives in Chandigarh, Jalandhar, Amritsar, and I have friends in Rajasthan and Jammu and Kashmir, and I can hardly comprehend the uncertainty they are enduring.”

The actor mentioned a message from his “maasi,” stating, ‘Don’t worry, God is great,’ indicating that “they’ve unfortunately become accustomed to this for years.”

“We will never fully grasp their reality, even though the emotions ran deep.”

He concluded: “A war is not a movie; emotions escalate beyond comprehension. Wars obliterate lives. We stand firmly behind our nation’s resolve against terrorism. May peace be restored in regions affected by such acts in the future. To these young souls, feel how you must, and apologies for the turmoil you have to endure. Always tender and caring. See you soon; I will find you and hug you tightly, boys.”
