A cleverly concealed propaganda film
25 December 2012
Warning: Spoilers
Rakesh Omprakash Mehra's attempt at making a feel good movie for the pseudo seculars. The script appears almost surrealistic at times, because of the biased and critical nature of the movie. First of lets just think this through shall we? Who would just up and decide to assassinate the defense minister of a country without even conducting a basic investigation to see if he was guilty? And to compare these nimrods with the likes of Bhagat Singh and Chandrasekhar Azad? I am sensing they didn't know much about our freedom fighters other than the part about they getting hanged. Nothing of the kind that is showed in the movie happened during the right wing rule. As if their blatant crap throwing at the ideals of the conservatives weren't enough, they had to end the movie with a purely impossible logic. Who would send commandos to massacre college students? I cant believe people bought into this propaganda crap. The Migs were bought before that government came to power. So if you re going to blame someone, blame our royal family and their Italian arms dealer/friend.

I do have to congratulate these people though. In showing how easily the average person can be manipulated with the help of good acting and great music(credit where it is due). This is a great way of campaigning for the ones in power. Make malicious movies about the opposition and throw dirt at them, while ban the filming of movies that show them in a bad light like the one about Jawaharlal Nehru, because it was going to portray his love affair with Lady Mountbatten.
