Actors Taapsee Pannu and Bhumi Pednekar hosted a special screening of their upcoming film Saand Ki Aankh for Vice President M. Venkaiah Naidu, and the lead actors were overwhelmed when he appreciated their efforts in depicting the characters of India’s oldest sharpshooters, Prakashi Tomar and Chandro Tomar.

The Vice President on Saturday met the actors and watched the glimpses of their film, which is based on the lives of the Tomar sisters. Naidu showered love on the movie and tweeted: “Conveyed my best wishes to the entire team of Saand Ki Aankh. The movie realistically depicted the manner in which the two sharp-shooters overcame all odds and became symbols of women empowerment.”
