The Movie is an attempt to bring into limelight the Historic Battle of Longewala located in Rajasthan.
The Pakistan Army opens Western Front against India to force away Indian effort to liberate Bangladesh from tyrant Pakistani rule.
The Pakistani Army assuming that Indian Forces have an only limited presence on Western Border attacks through Rajasthan in Longewala. The movie depicts true event and is not a piece of fiction as far as Battle is concerned.
It's true that there was a company of only 120 men against almost 2500 Pakistani Troops along with over 60 Tanks engaged in the Battle of Longewala. The Indian Post at Longewala had the strategic advantage of being at the higher level and also was one of the prime reasons for the shameful defeat of Pakistani Tank Column and Infantry at the hands of a handful Indians!
The characters have been carefully chosen and developed beautifully in the movie. The Battle appears almost real with men at their respective positions as in actual battle. The intensity is high and so is the depiction of morale. The Indian Air Force striking the Pakistanis in the morning was clearly seen although there was a little more role that IAF played in the actual battle. The dramatic scenes are good enough to make you shed a tear for the unsung hero's.
Overall the movie is great considering the complexities involved in shooting a real war scene. Its a must watch for all the people who do not know about the battle that is considered a strategic one in defeat the Pakistani Army by Indian Forces in 1971 war.
The movie is complete with patriotic moments, is well shot and well delivered. A must watch for every Indian.Also for those who like Real War Flicks!
