    Major - You may take me , but not my Country

    Major is a 2022 biopic of one of the heroes of '26/11' attacks, "Sandeep Unnikrishnan" . Diving in his life, all you'll find is patriotism. Which we all knew, but what about his love life ? To present his personal life is the main motto of the movie as well as the makers. So 'Major' is not about how he died, it's about how he lived his life. Talking about the performances, I felt casting crew which includes , Adivi Sesh , Saiee Manjarekar, Prakash Raj , Revathi , Murali Sharma they were very well selected as they did not just perform it they lived in it. Sesh just nailed the role, When released the first look of the Major, everyone felt Adivi Sesh is the lookalike of the Major. This factor made the movie more relatable. Saiee's acting seemed mature enough as compared to her previous works. No need to tell about the other leads (Prakash Raj, Revathi etc). Their style of acting/versatility is impeccable.

    Story and execution Sandeep Unnikrishnan a guy who took birth in Kerala,was enthusiastic and dedicated to his deeds. He always wanted to serve the Nation ,hence joins the Indian Army after Completing the training later he becomes the NSG Commandos trainer. When got the news about the 26/11 attacks he gets himself and his troops ready to save the hostages and to finish the darkness spread over the city. How he saves the hostages and plans made by him to kill the terrorists is to be watched.

    When , making a biopic the makers focus more on attracting the audience, which often misleads in showing up the reality . But in this case, Sesh just showed his skills as he didn't just meet the family of Sandeep he adopted the nature of him. And this needs appreciation.

    The execution was quite decent.

    Story and screenplay by Sesh was very engaging.

    Direction by Sashi Kiran Tikka was too good.

    Music by Sricharan Pakala was rocking.

    The bgms and sound effects were awesome.

    Editing by the duo Vinay and Pawan didn't let audience feel flat.

    Production values were of top class Few shots esp, in the second half gives you thrilling vibes.

    Few scenes were abrupt and over the top emotions. But when watching with the same emotion it doesn't matter to the audience.

    Hence, the team is successful in bringing people to watch Major by free screening, promotions etc.

    Verdict 'Major' shouldn't be missed and is a perfect tribute to the legend 'Sandeep'. 'Don't come up I'll handle them' this one line is enough to describe his life and to get your tickets booked.

    Worth watching

    Thanks to GMB Entertainment for bringing this Film to the audience.

    Just came out of the theatre with a heavy heart and cud not stop my self to write. As if someone in my family died saving people in the taj hotel saving hostages. We'll get connected to Major Unnikrishnan very well. Good job by Director Mr. Kiranraj.

    Kudos.

    Touching Tribute to Major Sandeep!

    Very touching tribute to courage shown by Major Sandeep and the movie also tries to depict the sacrifice a soldier has to make .

    It's a very tough choice and a job which doesn't get deserving respect from common public. Rest In Peace Major and thanks you for your service.

    A definite movie for cinemas.
