Khan joined a unique attempt to remember those who lost their lives on the eventful day by painting on a wall at Marine Lines even as Bollywood remembered the day the city was hit by one of the most bloody attacks in it's history. "It was a very tragic event, but the good thing that happened was that the tragedy brought the people of Mumbai together and closer," said actor Aamir Khan.
Actor Akshay Kumar, whose wife Twinkle was at the Taj when the terrorists stormed in, saluted the spirit of the city which defied all odds to get back on it's feet. "I know I am the luckiest guy in the world as my family was saved from a tragedy but I would like to extend my support and love to those who have lost there loved ones," Akshay said. The actor's upcoming film 'De Dana Dan' incidentally began shooting the same day as the attacks and will release a day after the first anniversary.

His co-star actor Suneil Shetty said that terror attacks are meant to disrupt the peace and economy of the country but the best way is to fight back. "I am very happy the way we have fought back and resumed with our responsibilities. This is the perfect way to tell the terrorists that they have not succeeded," Shetty said. Actress Neha Dhupia recalled that she was shooting for 'De Dana Dan' when the attacks happened. "We were shooting when the news broke out but our director Priyadarshan said that we would be not be affected by it and will continue our jobs and that is to entertain people and give them a reason to smile at such times," Neha said.
