Actor Esha Gupta, currently in Abu Dhabi, reassured fans of her safety amid rising tensions in the Middle East. The conflict began on February 28, when the United States and Israel launched a massive, coordinated military operation against Iran.

Calling the situation scary and tough, Esha wrote, "To everyone checking in and messaging, I'm sorry for not replying. We are ok, we are safe! Times are scary, very tough. God is there to protect us."
Lauding the Indian government, she continued, "We trust the @modgovae is doing the best in protecting and interception." The actress also prayed for their safety, adding, "Praying for everyone affected. All those stranded and safety for all above all."
"Hope to be home soon," Esha concluded.
