Major

Movies like these are very important to honour the lives of our brave soldiers and pay tribute to them. Their efforts are not going unnoticed. Heroic movie with legendary direction and music.

This is a very good movie, really inspiring, the way Adivi potrayed Major Sandeep, he could not have done a better job than this. Amazing acting !!! .............. Accha hai movie hai mai dekha hai bohot hee badiya movie hai.

In order to make the film presentable to the masses, the makers have opted for a very commercialized version of Major Sandeep's biopic. The creative liberties come into picture during the main part of the film, that is, the 26/11 part and it is understandable because as i said, masses will enjoy it.

The first 30-40 mins i would recommend you skip. It was boring and the school sequences between Sandeep and his gf was kinda boring to watch. In fact, the love angle is the most bollywoodish thing in this film , a typical cliche love story. Hence it did not click for me.

Now coming to the main part, the last 1 hr 20 mins of this film is a treat for commercialized action lovers. They have maintained a balance between realistic and rather commercialized unrealistic sequences. This last 1 hr or so held on to my attention right till the last second of this film. It was that interesting and gripping!

The last part made me really emotional. His parents , unsure about what Sandeep's condition is, suddenly finding their son on tv being shown martyred was really painful and emotional for me to watch. Don't miss these parts.

Other than that, there are certain fictionalized sequences that are far from realistic like some of Sandeep's acrobatics (mind you , as i said, it is done to make the film presentable to masses) or the terrorists being shown arriving at daytime while actually they arrived in the evening in dark time. Of course, by now we have seen so many 26/11 based films and sequences and all present that day in their own way.

The media angle is presented in a sarcastic way here with little fiction. We all know how terrorists were using the idiotic media to track commandos but here Watch out for a fictional sequence where Sandeep would turn the tables and use the media to wreck the terrorists instead. That was like an "ooooooooo" moment. In fact there is one hilarious sarcastic sequence where a media guy covering Nariman Point would see the commandos getting killed and says on live news "I can't understand how the terrorists are able to figure out that commandos are coming " as he keeps covering them live. It was sarcastic.

Songs , not one to remember. Performance by Adivi Shesh is terrific. He looks just young enough to represent Major Sandeep. He excels in the last 1 hr. Saiee Manj is average as she carries her one expression throughout the film. Prakash Raj too does a good job .

Overall, must watch! Full on entertainment guaranteed . If you miss the first 30 mins also due to some delay to reach theatre, then nothing to worry you haven't missed anything .

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.

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.
