Audiences' attention has been drawn to Mission Raniganj because it appears to be a film that mixes several genres. An exciting and interesting viewing experience is ensured by the blend of action, biography, and drama. The story's exploration of the difficult and deadly world of mining is what makes it so interesting, and it's all based on real occurrences. The rescue operation for the 65 trapped miners keeps spectators on the edge of their seats with its sense of urgency and suspense. Furthermore, the casting choices are fascinating, featuring such well-known actors as Akshay Kumar and Parineeti Chopra. Tinu Suresh Desai, a director with a track record for crafting compelling stories, is at the helm of the film.....
I saw the movie today. Sound mixing & Tinu Suresh Desai's direction is the first number. I didn't know that this incident happened. After watching the movie, I came to know that Jashwant Singh Gill has worked. This movie is from an engineer department. Every industry. The owner should show this film to the worker
Vasu Bhagnani & Jaki Bhagnani & Deepshikha Deshmukh have done very good direct work, they have used a lot of hard work and money to make a good film. Vipul Rawal's screenplay is good and the film has been shot nicely in Calcutta. Thanks to Tinu Suresh Desai & Pooja Entertainment.good.

Uplifting!
Superb script, screenplay and acting by Akshay Kumar. ParineetiChopra role small but beautifully acted, she looked sweet and genuine. Great acting by everyone.
I have been to many old coal mines which are closed now and watching how they were shown and picturized especially the water scene and later rescue gives goosebumps. Thrilling experience to watch in big screen.
This movie must be watched in theater to feel the impact.
Story flowed smoothly . Best part is it's not a fiction story but a true story which makes it very inspirational and uplifting that we have such brave 💪 countrymen!.

One of the very best movies of Akshay Kumar.
This is one of the rarest gems from the Indian cinema. A real story which is inspiring and courageous in itself and is wonderfully showcased in the film.
The storytelling is so engaging, a totally edge of the seat experience, an absolutely no nonsense film, but not at all boring. One will literally feel like being a part of the film while watching it.
It's about a successful rescue mission of 65 miners trapped in a flooded situation whose plan is made and led by Jaswant Singh Gill, a mining engineer.
The performances, especially by Akshay Kumar is one of his finest, I actually recalled his performance in Kesari; absolutely natural and convincing. The supporting cast was the perfect choice too; Ravi Kishan was a lovely presence a miner; Kumud Mishra, Pavan Malhotra, Varun Bhadola were all amazing and you will recognise all the actors from here and there.
There are a couple of songs; I really loved the first song; it was a wedding dance number by Akshay; and what a lovely performance; the movie just took off thereon.
It's a must watch film. Watch it to witness the courageous act of a mining engineer who also received the honour for being the Best Life Saver and it's showcased in an utmost sincere, engaging manner.
