New Delhi: Actor Randeep Hooda, who played the role of the late Sarabjit Singh in the 2016 biographical drama ‘Sarbjit’, reacts after learning about the killing of Sarabjit Singh’s murderer in Pakistan. On Sunday, the actor thanked "unknown men" after Amir Tanba, the person behind Sarabjit Singh's murder in 2013, was killed in Lahore.

Reposting a tweet by India Today, Hooda took to X (formerly Twitter ) and wrote, "Karma..Thank you Unknown Men. Remembering my Sister Dalbir Kaur and sending love to Swapandeep and Poonam, today some justice to Martyr Sarabjit Singh has been served."

Unknown gunmen killed Amir Tanba on Sunday in what is thought to be a targeted killing. Two unidentified motorcycle-borne gunmen opened fire at Amir while he was outside his residence at Islampura in Lahore. Tanba was a major player in the murder of Sarabjit Singh in Lahore's Kot Lakhpat Jail. 

Randeep Hooda calls it 'karma'

While speaking to IANS, Randeep said it’s all about Karma. “While doing the Sarabjit biopic it was always a very tragic feeling that when things were on the verge of working out to extradite him to India and get him back home to his family he was murdered in the jail,” said the actor.

“Hearing about his attacker being killed, I wonder what Dalbir ji would have felt. I’m sure it would have been a feeling of some justice served after she fought to get him for years on end,” the actor said.

Sarabjit’s sister Dalbir Kaur passed away in 2022. Randeep Hooda had also attended her last rites.

Randeep said he would soon call Sarabjit’s daughters and talk to them. “Karma does catch up even if through unknown men,” said the actor.
