Bhumi Satish Pednekkar recently marked a deeply personal and memorable chapter in her journey with a visit to the Assam Regimental Centre in Meghalaya. The actress spent three days at the training facility, interacting closely with members of the Indian Armed Forces and gaining first-hand insight into the lives of soldiers who serve the nation. The visit, which formed part of her Jai Jawan special, left a lasting impression on the actor, both emotionally and personally.

Sharing a video from the experience on social media, Bhumi spoke about the emotional connection behind the gesture. “It’s a special day for me. Throughout my life, my mom has shared her experiences from her days at the NCC. Today, I’m at the Assam Regimental Centre and we had a sweet show for all the Agniveers. And I felt there couldn’t be a more apt place for me to wear all her medals.”
The actress also penned a detailed note reflecting on her time at the centre and the inspiration she drew from the soldiers she met. “There couldn’t have been a better moment than this to wear my mother’s medals she won during her time in the @nccindiaofficial , @sumitrapednekar you are my hero.
