Mumbai, March 2 – Punjabi actor Ammy Virk has expressed his distress over the current situation in the region, particularly as his wife and 6-year-old daughter are currently in the UAE.
In a post on his official Instagram handle, the actor, known for his role in "Qismat," wrote, "The situation in the UAE has been weighing heavily on my heart. My wife and my 6-year-old daughter are there, and as a husband and father, it's impossible not to feel emotional and tense during times like this."
Sharing what his daughter told him, while trying to remain brave amidst the uncertainty, he added, "Papa, I will hide under my bed if something happens. I'm a strong girl, Papa, don't worry" – this is not what a father wants to hear. Every news update feels personal. No matter how strong we try to appear in public life, at the end of the day, we are still family people."
Ammy Virk further expressed his gratitude to the UAE government and authorities for ensuring the safety of the residents.
Praying for the safety of all those affected, the actor, known for his role in "Saunkan Saunkne," hoped that this difficult phase would soon come to an end.
"At the same time, I know that there are so many other families going through the same fear and anxiety. My prayers are not just for my loved ones, but for every single person affected. I also want to acknowledge and appreciate the efforts being made by the UAE authorities and the UAE government. From what I'm being told, they are working tirelessly to ensure people remain safe and supported during this time. For that, I am truly grateful. Let us continue to pray for peace, stability, and the well-being of everyone there. May this phase pass soon, and may all families feel secure and protected," the post concluded.
