Adivi Sesh starrer Major completed one year since release on June 3. On the special occasion, the actor met 26/11 martyr Sandeep Unnikrishnan's parents. Sesh's role in Major was based on Unnikrishnan's heroics during the terror attacks in Mumbai in 2008. He also spent time with retired ISRO scientist K Unnikrishnan and his wife Dhanalakshmi Unnikrishnan. 

Sesh took to social media and shared a series of photos from his meeting with Unnikrishnan's parents. In the first photo, he could be seen hugging Dhanalakshmi.

Another frame captured him with Unnikrishnan's mother as they looked on at an old photo of the slain soldier resting on his mother's lap.

It was evident in the photos that behind their smiles, they were fighting back tears. Sharing the photos on Instagram, Sesh said that he met 'Amma and uncle' on the first anniversary of his film Major. He shared that 'Amma' cooked for him food despite having pain in her shoulders.
