Dhurandhar Real-Life Story: Major Mohit Sharma Shot Terrorists Point-Blank With Their Own Weapon, Then Sipped Kahwa as His Unit Arrived.
Major Mohit Sharma of the Indian Army’s elite 1 Para (Special Forces) is remembered as one of the most daring undercover operatives India has ever produced. Among the many stories about his courage, one incident stands out for its sheer intensity — the moment he eliminated two terrorists at point-blank range using their own weapon, and then calmly drank kahwa while waiting for his team to reach the spot.
In 2004, Mohit undertook a covert mission under a false identity to infiltrate a militant group in Kashmir. For days, he lived among the terrorists, doing everyday chores for them — cooking, cleaning, collecting firewood and preparing tea — all while gaining their trust. His calm behaviour and convincing cover story made the terrorists believe he was one of them.
On the day of the operation, Mohit joined the militants on a routine outing. To prove his loyalty, he even handed one of them an AK-47 rifle and said they could shoot him if they doubted him. That single gesture convinced them he was trustworthy. When the right moment came, Mohit swiftly turned the situation around. Using a concealed weapon, he shot both terrorists point-blank before they could react.
After neutralizing the threat, he sat down in the same room and quietly sipped the kahwa he had prepared earlier, waiting for his unit to arrive. When the Special Forces team reached the location, they reportedly found him sitting calmly with the cup in his hand, as if nothing extraordinary had happened.
This episode has now become a symbol of Mohit Sharma’s extraordinary composure, intelligence and fearlessness. His ability to switch from undercover subtlety to precise action — and then return to complete calm — reflects the legendary discipline of India’s Special Forces. While many details of the mission remain classified, the story continues to inspire countless Indians and is widely believed to be an influence for the film Dhurandhar.
