Airlift Review:

Airlift is a thriller film directed by Raja Krishna Menon. The film stars Akshay Kumar and Nimrat Kaurin the lead roles. It is being produced by T-Series. Airlift will hit the screens this Friday.

Expectations:
The promos of the film has received terrific response from everyone. We are expecting a full fledged thriller with some inspirational story. Lets check out Airlift review to find out if it lives up to the expectations.

Airlift Review – Akshay Kumar
The film tell the story of Ranjit Katyal (Akshay Kumar) who is a powerful business tycoon living in Kuwait married to Amrita Katyal (Nimrat Kaur). He considers himself as a Kuwaiti rather than an Indian. He was enjoying his luxurious life till one day Iraq invades Kuwait. The whole scenario changes and he finds out that he does not have any command over Iraqi soldiers. One Iraqi major offers a safe exit for Ranjit and his family which he declined saying that he cannot leave his fellow Indians. Later the actor transforms from a mean businessman to a generous, kind-hearted leader of the underdogs.

Ranjit Katyal contacts Indian embassy and asks for help. He and other fellow Indian managed to survive the Iraqi invasion, and against all odds decide to travel a thousand kilometers across the border into Amman, Jordan. What fellows next is a shocking turn of events which leads to dramatic and thrilling journey.

The story is gripping. The first ten minutes itself set the pace of this thriller. This is a completely nail biting tale and has you hooked to it. The story is on the face and the script with terrific dialogues completely bowls you over.

The story is quite simple, well-explained and the plot is clear. The choice of setting for the plot which moves from Kuwait, Iraq, Jordan and India is well thought out.

Airlift Review: Direction, Editing, Screenplay
But the problem lies within the direction. Raja Krishna Menon’s inexperience is quite visible in some sequences. Luckily the film get over it soon and kept most of the film real. The screenplay is decent. The editing could have been better as some scenes are very short.

Technically the film is brilliant and definitely deserves some accolades. The cinematography by Priya Seth is excellent. She has done some terrific job to recreate the war zone which looks real.

The music is good especially Soch Na Sake will melt your heart. The background score drives the film perfectly as it rises the tempo.

Airlift Review: Star Performances
♦ Is there anything that Akshay Kumar cannot do? The actor once again excelled in this thriller and deliver award worthy performance. He is superb in emotional sequences and expresses his fear and terror. The award functions continue to ignore him and the actor replies them with his stellar performances one after another. Respect

♦ Nimrat Kaur impresses in his short role. She kept it simple and real as the wife of Ranjit. Though we wish to see more of her in the film.

♦ Purab Kohli and Feryna Wazheir also does well in their supporting roles.

What’s Good:
♦ Script
♦ Brilliant Cinematography
♦ Terrific Performance by Akshay
♦ Dialogues
♦ No melodrama
What’s Not
♦ Weak Direction
♦ Some Loopholes
♦ Rushed Climax
Airlift Movie Review: Verdict
Overall Airlift is a thrilling, engaging and an inspiring tale which should not be missed. Go for it.

Rating:
3.5/5

Film review: Akshay Kumar pilots a gripping ‘Airlift’
If you have lived in the Gulf long enough, chances are that you too were affected by Iraq’s invasion of Kuwait back in 1990, maybe through a family member, a friend, a neighbour, or perhaps, even your own experience that you have long forgotten.

‘Airlift’ flips through the pages of history to relive those turbulent times through the eyes of multiple Indians – over 170,000 of them – who survived the ordeal and became a part of one of the world’s largest civilian evacuations till date.

While ‘Airlift’ itself takes plenty of cinematic liberties, the film’s premise will touch an emotional chord with Gulf Indians, nearly 25 years after the invasion that fateful morning of August 2.

The film’s opening scene takes viewers to a day before the invasion, setting the backstory of lead star Akshay Kumar as Ranjit Katiyal, a Kuwaiti businessman of Indian origin, who shuns his nationality and ancestry for the life and riches the Gulf has offered him and his family.

However, 24 hours later the world turns on its head as Katiyal and wife Amrita (Nimrat Kaur) find themselves victims in a power play that will force them to choose between personal interests and selflessness, as they unwittingly become leaders in the charge of tens of thousands of Indian refugees trapped in Kuwait.

‘Airlift’ is no ‘Argo’, as many have touted it to be.

The similarity between the two films is simply the premise of an underdog who champions for a cause and succeeds through grit and determination.

What ‘Airlift’ excels at is its ability to deftly weave through the layers of human emotions with select personal stories, without trapping itself in the quagmire of glycerin-induced histrionics.

The subtle underplay of sentiments stands out in several key scenes, with director Raja Krishna Menon allowing raw emotions to speak rather than overburdening the moment with mindless dialogues.

Of particular note is the morning following the invasion, when Katiyal first witnesses the horror that lays before him as he comes home to find his wife and daughter missing and his home looted.

His breakdown will possibly leave a viewer choked up, while underscoring why Kumar really is one of the best in the business.

Kumar really is the backbone of this film, with his maturity as an actor evident in his subtle transition from an arrogant businessman to a humbled refugee who bears the burden of saving the lives of thousands around him.

Even his body language changes, with squared shoulders now drooping, as desperation sets in with days passing and no government help on the horizon.

Kaur lends credibility to her performance as well, with the same level of restraint that saw her excel in the sleeper hit ‘The Lunchbox’.

While most of the support stars perform effectively, actor Purab Kohli’s Ibrahim stands out particularly and proves yet again that he is one of the most underrated performers in Indian cinema today.

Where ‘Airlift’ perhaps stumbles is its over-simplicity in handling some of the proverbial landmines strewn in its path; and Inaamulhaq’s Arab accent as an Iraqi major is quite laughable.
But such trivialities are best ignored when you look at the grand picture. In this particular case, ‘Airlift’ takes off with minimum turbulence at the cinemas this week.
