REUTERSIt has been 10 years since the 26/11 Mumbai terror attack shocked India to the core. Dark memories of shooting and killing of innocent people by terrorists still flicker alive.

The Hindi film fraternity took to social media on Monday (Nov 26) to pay tribute to those who sacrificed their lives, reports IANS.

Producer Ronnie Screwvala and makers of upcoming film 'Uri', based on the Uri attack of September 2016, showed their respect to all those martyred on that day by observing silence across 300 radio stations all over India on Monday morning.

As many as 164 people were killed and over 300 injured after an attack masterminded by the Pakistan-based Lashkar-e-Taiba was orchestrated in Mumbai on November 26, 2008.

On the tenth anniversary of the attack, Bollywood celebrities like Abhishek Bachchan and Varun Dhawan paid tribute to the victims and martyrs and said it's a day that can't be forgotten.

Here's how celebrities remembered the day via Twitter:

Abhishek Bachchan: Never forget! - ABhishekh. 26/11

        

Varun Dhawan: Will never forget 26/11. We have only grown stronger. Mumbaikar. Jai Hind.

 

Arjun Kapoor: Remembering our heroes of 26/11. Everyone who helped each other through the tough time. My heart goes out to their courage and sacrifice and for all the innocent victims.

 

Vishal Dadlani: 26/11. We will never forget. What has changed since, Mumbai? Are we any safer? We were promised Police Reforms, counter-terrorism training and modern equipment for a woefully understaffed and underpaid Mumbai Police Force. Seen any?

 

Aftab Shidvasani: Let's not forget the sacrifices of these brave sons of India.
