The Ghazi Attack

In all the excitement of recreating a major historical event, don't you think that the director or anyone involved could have done a basic research on the naval uniforms of both sides - at least the difference between those of Officers and Men. Here the Indian officers are seen with their shoulder boards as well as insignia of sailors. Commander of the boat also has a Petty Officers arm badge. Engineering, communication and other officer ranks also messed up. Plots shamelessly copied out of Crimson tide, Das boot, U 571 and Hunt for red October to name a few that I have watched. Why do they have to show the opposite number captain as "angry". The creators of such movies should stop taking us audience for granted

Seldom do we have amazing war dramas made in India. The Ghazi Attack breaks the mould to give us an edge of seat, gripping movie. Not many know about this war and I'm among them. Though the movie is a work of fiction and the events have been dramatized, the premise is the same.

The movie has an ensemble cast consisting of Kay Kay Menon, Atul Kulkarni, Rana Duggabati. All 3 deliver power packed performance which add to the amazingness of the movie. We also get to see how a submarine works with detailed sets of the interiors of a submarine. Most of the other underwater scenes are courtesy special effects which are mildly average to be very frank. The movie is very tight with just a little over 120 minutes and does not feel stretched even a bit.

The movie beautifully shows the internal conflict in between the indian naval officers. It adds to depth of the film . Sankalp Reddy does a fine job considering this is his directorial debut. He lets the movie stay in its genre and does not indulge in mainstream elements to try and sell the movie. Patriotism and nationalism is high in the film as expected. The unique experience the movie offers being an underwater film is reason enough to watch it.

First review of the year, second month of the year and probably the most celebrated movie of the year not in terms of financial budget, but in terms of story line up. Since years, I saw lots of Hollywood movies on War on all three wings of Defense Forces. Famous Bollywood movies were, Border, Lakshya, LOC Kargil and many more (I don't remember much). All these years I was thinking why there is no movie based on Indian Navy and today I got the answer to this question. First thing first, few key points to be noted: 1. Well scripted story. 2. True patriotic movie, would have released on 26th Jan or 15th Aug. 3. Technicality of submarine is well explained on screen. 4. Hats off to VFX director who made look things utmost real. 5. Please appreciate the people who were involved in the development of submarine prototype.

Now not in detail, but overview on movie. The Ghazi Attack starrer Famous Kay Kay Menon (S21 submarine Capt. Rann Vijay Singh), Rana Daggubati (Lt. Commander Arjun), Atul Kulkarni (Exe. Officer Devraj) and Tapsee Pannu (Bangladeshi refugee). This movie is battling with two other simultaneous releases Running Shaadi & Iraada. This is the first Indian War film at Sea.

Movie starts with the ongoing civil war between East (Now, Bangladesh) and West Pakistan in 1971. As Pakistan wants to put firm hold on Bangladesh, they launch an offensive confidential mission to eliminate INS Vikrant. Few of the intercepts are decode which clearly indicated that Indian Navy will go for search operation only, not on attack mode. So S21 Indian Navy submarine was deployed to monitor the location at Bay of Bengal covering East coast of India. Hence during several search operations they detect nothing but yet they find PNS Ghazi is on some mission to Chittagong even though war wasn't declared from both the sides. So there was a tense situation of ethics, rule book theories and orders.

All characters, dialects, interior were so well crafted that there is mere possibility of finding mistakes. And yes audience of India, they take lots of time in accepting these kind of movies. Kay Kay Menon - superb, Rana Daggubati - making a mark, Atul Kulkarni - support to both mentioned characters, Tapsee Pannu - mere role but justifiable.

Defence forces implies on Leadership skills, Team work, Ethics, Valor, Confidence, Decision taker, Discipline and Patriotic. Because of these warriors only we could spend our day peacefully. Must watch movie for everyone. Movie making is an art, not a joke so respect it and appreciate it if possible. See it on big screen only not on your laptop or mobile devices. STOP PIRACY.

"Bold" "Motivating" "Patriotic" "Must watch" Rating: 4/5
