When I watched #Neeraj Pandey's 'Special Ops' I was deeply impressed by the presence and performance of #KaranTacker. #Khaki TheBiharChapter was equally impressive! Karan has this unique ability to make his performances look effortless but still carry the weightage of a seasoned actor. “
“The role he plays in #TanviTheGreat had these requirements! He carries the Indian Army uniform and the responsibilities that come along with it with finesse, dignity and majestic grace. You will love him in TTG! Thank you Karan for your love, dedication and BRILLIANCE! Happy Birthday once again my friend. Jai Ho and Jai Hind!” he added.

To debut on the big screen with a film like Tanvi The Great, under the direction of someone I’ve admired for years — Anupam Kher sir — is not just a professional milestone, it’s a dream manifested. Playing Capt. Samar Raina challenged me in ways I’d never imagined. Getting the opportunity to represent India at Cannes with this film is humbling beyond words.”
