Actress Lara Dutta, who returned from Dubai along with her daughter, said her residence was 10 km away from the Jebel Ali Port, which was attacked by Iran amid Middle East war. "[It] was being literally bombed and hammered every day...It was scary," she said. Lara recalled telling her 'Airlift' co-star Akshay Kumar that the situation felt like 'Airlift 2'.
