SRK pens poem for Jawans on Diwali
Bollywood superstar Shah Rukh Khan was at his poetic best on Diwali as he recited a beautiful poem thanking the unsung heroes of our country — the Indian soldiers.

The video clip, that has now gone viral, was shared by King Khan on Twitter as a part of #Sandesh2Soldiers initiative, kick-started by Prime Minister Narendra Modi. But what makes SRK’s message special is that it’s a self-written poem he recited.
Through two Twitter posts, he shared a video clip captioned, “Wishing everyone a Happy Diwali. May the Festival of Lights bring with it brightness and goodness in all our lives. Be safe and enjoy,” adding, “I sent my #Sandesh2Soldiers. This Diwali let us all remember our soldiers!” Here is the complete text of his poem. “I’ve written a little poem for them. Hope it reaches them. Our feet on. Our feet on carpet, their boots on ground. Our days are steady, theirs, new challenges unravel. Our nights blissful, theirs, stressful. It’s our life to live because it’s theirs to give. The heroes should not remain unsung because we can’t imagine their plight. We grow stronger and bolder because theirs is the fight. The fight of a soldier.”
