They also shared a teaser where a voiceover introduces the initial plot of the series. The series will closely focus on the Pahalgam terror attack, which caused several deaths, including newlywed couples, and India's Operation Sindoor as a reply to the terror attack.
The name Sindoor, which refers to the mark of vermilion worn by Hindu married women, was chosen to symbolize the erasure of this symbol of marriage due to the invasion and to represent the mourning of women who lost their husbands.
The terror attack took place in April in Pahalgam, Jammu and Kashmir. The attack was brutal, with many men killed in front of their wives. The targeting of Hindu men in particular made the attack deeply personal for many families.
The operation involved strikes on nine terror camps in Pakistan and Pakistan-occupied Kashmir, marking India's most significant retaliatory action in recent years.The naming of the operation aimed to humanize the victims and ensure their stories were not forgotten, rather than simply presenting the response as a purely military action.
