Story Line
In the race of ‘Who will build a Nuclear Bomb first” Pakistan tries to copy India after its first successful attempt at testing the bomb in 1974 which was codenamed ‘Smiling Buddha’. India hears about it and now wants someone from its cover agents in Pakistan to find out everything about the same. Enters, ‘Gadaar baap ka prayshchit karta hua ladka’ Amandeep Ajitpal Singh (Sidharth Malhotra) using the alias of Tariq making his living as a tailor in Rawalpindi.
Of course, he’s the best student in his batch, so R&AW head RN Kao (Parmeet Sethi) chooses him for this mission. So, in 1974, how will you figure out where Pakistan is testing its Nuclear Bomb without letting everyone know about it? By figuring out which is the only store that makes western toilets on the order because the leading man of the mission uses it. That’s how Tariq tries to get the information and is successful in doing so along with marrying his love Nasreen (Rashmika Mandanna) and also making her pregnant.
Mission Majnu Movie Review: Star Performance
Sidharth Malhotra shouldn’t have taken this route after Shershaah for two reasons – firstly, it will plow a seed of doubt in viewers’ minds about him taking the routine ‘patriotic’ route (tried & failed by Akshay Kumar), secondly, this is nowhere near to Shershaah. The disguise portion doesn’t sit well with his act and the weak script of the investigation process restricts him from proving his performing prowess.
Rashmika Mandanna can’t see in the film because she’s blind and even we can’t see her in the film because we’re bored. We’re bored of female actresses taking up roles just to serve the unidimensional purpose of keeping the actors’ happiness without contributing a single glance (here, pun intended!) to the story.
Sharib Hashmi, yet again, gets the role of the hero’s that friend who will sacrifice himself by the end of the film because that’s his purpose – to guide the hero and get himself killed. He’s not the only brilliant actor to get martyred by the weak storyline, we’ve Kumud Mishra & Parmeet Sethi following the same suit.
