Mission Majnu

Sidharth Malhotra and Rashmika Mandanna starrer Mission Majnu, directed by Shantanu Bagchi, was released on Netflix today.

A part of the review read, “What’s nice is that the film steers clear of jingoism. A Pakistani character says that the Partition was ‘done’ by the ‘angrez’. [The Indian Express](https://indianexpress.com) film critic Shubhra Gupta gave two stars to the movie and said that it is “a sedate, by-the-numbers drone”. Excited for you guys to watch and experience something that I personally enjoyed!” He added, “Thank you to the whole cast and crew for this beautiful journey, a journey that is unforgettable. I’ve enjoyed exploring a character so intense that puts forth many shades/ disguises for you guys to witness.

Sidharth Malhotra and Rashmika Mandanna starrer-Mission Majnu leaves fans emotional. However, many of them also wish for a theatrical release of the spy ...

The Hindustan Times review of the film read, “Mission Majnu boasts of a winner plot that's high on patriotism and heroic deeds. However, the story, jointly written by Aseem Arrora, Sumit Batheja and Parveez Shaikh, falters at several places and doesn't let Mission Majnu hit hard.” The trailer showed Sidharth playing the 'simple' tailor who moves in and out of key places in Pakistan to report back to India about their nuclear facility. Ye dono film nahi feelings hai (Shershah and Mission Majnu are feelings).” Yet another one pointed out, “I would have loved to watch this movie in the theatre.” Directed by Shantanu Bagchi, Mission Majnu is based on true events from the 1970s. The film also stars Kumud Mishra and Sharib Hashmi. It is also affecting people a lot because patriotic slogans are given as much as possible and are the most preferred thing. Amazing performance from Sid, steals the show in it. Loved the climax part, might bring tears. “Just finished #MissionMajnu Unlike most movies, this one shows us that you don't need chest thumping to be called a patriotic. Going by the Twitter review of Mission Majnu, fans have heaped praises on the fresh on-screen pair.

Sidharth Malhotra needs to stop being formulaic or else be ready to accept the fate many 'A-listers in Bollywood have - Mission Majnu Movie Review Out!

[Google News](https://news.google.com/s/CBIwo7yAqUE) This is Shantanu Bagchi’s debut film, apart from this he has made an ad for Nycil Cool Shower (as per IMDb) & I knew he had some connections with the bathroom to keep a ‘western toilet’ espionage trick in the film. We’re bored of female actresses taking up roles just to serve the unidimensional purpose of keeping the actors’ happiness without contributing a single glance (here, pun intended!) to the story. Sidharth Malhotra shouldn’t have taken this route after Shershaah for two reasons – firstly, it will plow a seed of doubt in viewers’ minds about him taking the routine ‘patriotic’ route (tried & failed by Akshay Kumar), secondly, this is nowhere near to Shershaah. That’s how Tariq tries to get the information and is successful in doing so along with marrying his love Nasreen (Rashmika Mandanna) and also making her pregnant. Of course, he’s the best student in his batch, so R&AW head RN Kao (Parmeet Sethi) chooses him for this mission.

The spy thriller gave fans what they wanted most- Siddharth Malhotra back in army action after his previous whooping hit Shershah.

No matter how many times Bollywood twist and turn the ‘Indian spy’ genre, it always ends up sweeping over the audience with tings of patriotism.

This movie is an embarrassingly directed and half-heartedly enacted exercise from start to finish.

Mission Majnu is the kind of film that Netflix was a dump yard for until a few years ago. Directed by first-timer Shantanu Bagchi, Mission Majnu labours on for well over two hours, with not a single scene or moment putting you on the edge of your seat, as one would expect from a film of this genre. Tasked with finding out the location of Pakistan’s nuclear bomb facility, Tariq embarks on a one-man mission, even as he is constantly insulted by his handler (a one-note Zakir Hussain) for his father’s betrayal. Raazi humanised the enemy and didn’t resort to chest thumping; Mission Majnu is just the opposite. She was just a young girl with a passion to carry on her father’s duty to the country after his death. But given that this is a job that needs to be done, let’s just spend the next 800 words telling you why Mission Majnu is possibly one of the most amateurishly mounted Bollywood films seen in recent times.

Stream It Or Skip It: 'Mission Majnu' on Netflix, a Loosey-Goosey Bollywood Outing That Blends Serious Political Intrigue with Romance, Action, and Comedy.

And the action sequences are deeply silly – watch Amandeep take on a horde of Pakistani soldiers atop a moving train in a sequence that makes a Bruce Lee showdown against a million-zillion ninjas seem plausible. So the pressure’s on Amandeep to hold together his string of crazy gambits and prevent a terrible, terrible war! So maybe the oddly juxtapositional tone is a tad problematic, and Bagchi’s attempt at cramming in a few things shy of the kitchen sink renders the film about 20 minutes past the point of testing our patience – but at least it’s generally entertaining. And so Tariq and Nasreen get married and live a very, very modest life on the pitiful salary of a sub-tailor. And so Amandeep never seems to work at the tailor shop or be home, and Nasreen never thinks to question what he does at all hours of the day and night. He’s disarmingly handsome and is so good at playing a simple, illiterate fellow, his sneaky interrogation of a Pakistani general – Amandeep talks his way into his house under the guise of repairing the buttons on his uniform – seems like the innocent questions of a lowly needle-and-thread man.

We discuss the ending of the Netflix film Mission Majnu which will contain significant spoilers and plot points.

Simultaneously, we see Nasreen go on the plane and settle in, while Tariq is running through the airport trying to dodge the cops. So to save his wife and his baby, he distracts the cops. Right as he leaves her, the cops at the gate somehow recognize her and go after her. Nasreen is heavily pregnant now and Tariq tries his best to get her and the baby out of the country safely. Tariq and Nasreen are trying to leave the country amidst the war between India and Pakistan. Once she gets pregnant, he has flashbacks to his own father and wonders if the same fate is waiting for him because he is an undercover agent himself.

Calling Alia Bhatt-starrer Raazi 'a good film', Sidharth Malhotra welcomed comparisons between his latest movie Mission Majnu and Alia's 2018 spy thriller.

[Shershaah](https://www.hindustantimes.com/topic/shershaah), which is based on India and Pakistan, and the battle that we had, which was documented. I think it is fair (the comparison), and we will have a better conversation when the film is out and we could discuss it.
