Airlift works because it conveys a time when armies will attack civilians - you’re struck by how IS was born from the Iraqi army’s core - and raises Bollywood’s generic bar.
Plus, it movingly celebrates the most beautiful flag in the world.
Fabulous movie that is definitely worth a watch and it depicts the mother of all airlifts which very few are aware of, what our guys accomplished was nothing short of a miracle. Lovely casting, fine acting and tightly edited scenes, thankfully no melodrama, excellent visuals and CGI. Move over Khan brigade, this is Akshay at his best.
