Bollywood actor Nimrat Kaur on Wednesday woke up to a wrong news report about her that mistook her with Pakistan Army's first female Lt General. On Tuesday, the official handle of Pakistan's Armed Forces announced that Major General Nigar Johar became the first woman officer in the Pakistan Army to be promoted to the rank of Lieutenant-General.
The media report published the news but instead put Nimrat Kaur's picture from Alt Balaji's series 'The Test Case' where she plays the role of the Indian Army's first-ever female Combat officer. Reacting to the news, Nimrat wrote, "Waking up to ‘news’ about a new profession, promotion, and passport for me. July just got in line with the year! 👏🏼 #NormalDay" [sic]
A fan wrote, "U are impacting lives across the borders too :):)". To this, Nimrat said, "Here and happy to serve my own ‘Homeland’ and none other." [sic]
For those unaware, in 2015, Kaur played the recurring role of Inter-Services Intelligence (ISI) agent Tasneem Qureishi in the fourth season of the American television series Homeland.

For a moment, I thought this could have been a great script for Homeland season 9. Then slowly reality sunk in. 😂😂
