Must Watch. The untold story of the biggest evacuation ever.

Rating: 9/10 (23 January 2016)

AIRLIFT, what an incredible movie. Raja Krishna Menon has efficaciously presented the biggest evacuation ever.
Akshay Kumar delivers a power-packed performance. Ranjit Katyal is undoubtedly his best performance ever. I wonder why does he do movies like Tees Maar Khan and Singh is Bling, when he can make movies like AIRLIFT ,Baby and win our hearts. Nimrat Kaur is equally hot and talented. I am her fan now. She plays her character with such an ease and finesse, that you start wondering if she actually is like her character in real life. I wish she starts doing more movies now. Not just the lead cast, even the supporting cast has done a brilliant job. Special mention to Innamulhaq who has played an Iraqi major and Prakash Belawadi who plays a not-so-common man.
Raja Krishna Menon, the director deserves an applause for making such an amazing movie and also for sticking to the reality and not making AIRLIFT a typical bollywood one. I, however was expecting a more impactful climax, but I guess for that the director had to move a bit from reality which would have diluted the essence of the movie. So, I won't complain about it.
The background music, the songs (Soch na sake) , the screenplay everything is perfect.
This movie has to be in your MUST WATCH list. This movie shows that patriotism runs in our blood, no matter which part of the world we settle in.
