1971: Beyond Borders

1971: Beyond Borders is a war film directed by Major Ravi. The film stars Mohanlal, Allu Sirish and Arunoday Singh.

The film is a fictional story based on the backdrop of 1971 India Pakistan war from a soldier's point of view.

This is probably one of the worst war films i have ever seen. The worst part is the casting and the film doesn't looks natural. A pot bellied major who seems to be more interested in drinking, an hapless looking Indian army and an second lieutenant who is more interested in love letters. This film is more about preaching and less about war and even the war scenes doesn't looks natural.

Screenplay of the film is slow and acting in the film is decent. The one more factor that makes this film less then a war film is that the film is more and more based on just one man and no war can be described on the viewpoint of just one man. The film also lacks facts.

Only true and hardcore Mohanlal fans will like this film for others who are coming to watch a war film will be disappointed as this film is anything but a war film.
