On a closing note she added, “As someone who has barely escaped a war zone, I cannot be more grateful today…l’m back home and safe with my family and my loved ones. But with an experience that has made me immensely grateful for the safety and security that we almost take for granted. I am ever so grateful to Government of India, the Indian Embassy and the Israeli Embassy, for their help and guidance in bringing my team and me back safe. I would also like to thank each and every one of my well-wishers from the bottom of my heart for their wishes and prayers for my safety.”

Nushrratt was in Israel to attend the Haifa International Film Festival. Her film Akelli was showcased at the film festival. On Saturday, when the attack took place, her team told India Today that they spoke to Nushrratt shortly after the attack but they had lost touch with her since Saturday afternoon.
