How it was stopped in its tracks is the story of Given our long experience in Bollywood spy sagas replete with song-and-dance and romance, we do not blink an eyelid when we witness the double life of the handsome Tariq. A dirty bomb in the possession of an unstable democracy could be lethal.

Mission Majnu Movie Review: This is no Shershaah, but Sidharth ... (India Today)

Mission Majnu, starring Sidharth Malhotra and Rashmika Mandanna, premiered on Netflix on January 20. The film has its heart in the right place, ...

Sidharth is good in scenes where he is battling the stigma and pain of his past yet wants to move ahead and show his loyalty to his country and team. I am worried that the actor doesn’t take the success of his film too seriously and is typecast in similar roles, becoming the poster boy for jingoism. Shantanu Bagchi’s treatment of the subject in MM feels a bit lost and confused in places. But as the plot progresses and things get serious, the direction feels out of focus. After India’s first successful nuclear test in 1974, a worried Pakistan decides to carry out its own test with the help of shady allies willing to sell them material to build its own bomb. Tariq has a murky past across the border where his father was labelled a traitor in his motherland - India.

Mission Majnu Review: Lively Performance By Sidharth Malhotra ... (NDTV)

Cast: Sidharth Malhotra, Rashmika Mandanna, Parmeet Sethi, Sharib Hashmi, Mir Sarwar, Kumud Mishra, Zakir Hussain and Rajit Kapur. Director: Shantanu Bagchi.

But this hero and Sidharth Malhotra's interpretation of the character might have had a greater impact had this been a film less ordinary. Yet, parts of the film, especially in the second hour, do spring to life. It isn't hard to grasp the drift of the man's statement, especially when seen in the context of today's hyper-nationalism. So, when Tariq is confronted by a bunch of Pakistani soldiers, he is a handful. He isn't a conventional man of 'action' but he knows what he is in Pakistan for. It reimagines the circumstances that forced Pakistan to abort its nuclear programme in the 1970s. One of the characters with whom Tariq works asserts that patriotism does not flow in one's veins but resides in the soul. He stops at nothing to obliterate his identity as he seeks to gather intelligence about Pakistan's covert counter-moves in the wake of India's first nuclear test in Pokhran in mid-1974. In this respect, it is no different from other spy thrillers of the day. Kao (Parmeet Sethi) to ferret out the details of Pakistan's plans. Much of the intrigue that the film generates hinges on the hero's head-versus-heart conflict. Neither strand of the narrative is able to keep flaccidity at bay.

Mission Majnu movie review: Weak story makes you miss Sidharth's ... (Hindustan Times)

Mission Majnu movie review: Despite Sidharth Malhotra in top form the film's weak story ruins the overall experience. | Bollywood.

Full marks to the way he has picked the dialect and the way he emotes. I mean it sounds hilarious how makers equipped Tariq with this super power to crack the most difficult tasks and instantly act on them. Rashmika brings a freshness to the film but doesn't have much to do. He is on a covert mission in Pakistan to expose a nuclear weapons program. On learning that several R&AW agents are living in Pakistan, the shootout that follows killing almost everyone on the radar is a rather well-shot sequence. Sidharth Malhotra in kurta pyjama, with kohl-rimmed eyes, plays an R&AW agent in Pakistan who marries an innocent girl and using her as a cover in his mission to expose a nuclear facility.

Mission Majnu Review: देशभक्ति की शानदार कहानी है Sidhartha ... (ABP News)

Mission Majnu: सिद्धार्थ मल्होत्रा की मिशन मजनू नेटफ्लिक्स पर रिलीज हो गई. ऐसे में आइए जानते ...

फिल्म का म्यूजिक भी अच्छा है. कहानी- नाम से ही पता चल रहा है कि फिल्म में हीरो का एक मिशन होगा और मिशन क्या है ये फिल्म के ट्रेलर से ही पता चल जाता है. ये मिशन कैसे पूरा होता है और फिर रश्मिका का क्या होता है. पाकिस्तान 1971 का युद्ध हारने के बाद न्यूक्लियर बम बना रहा है और हिंदुस्तान को उसके इस मिशन को नाकाम करना है. शांतुन बागची का डायरेक्शन अच्छा है. अगर देश भक्ति की अलख ठीक से जला दी जाए तो फिल्म लोगों के दिलों को छू ही जाती है.

Mission Majnu Review: Sidharth Malhotra Looks for Pak Nuclear ... (Film Companion)

Director: Shantanu Bagchi. Writers: Sumit Batheja, Parveez Shaikh, Aseem Arrora. Cast: Sidharth Malhotra, Rashmika Mandanna, Kumud Mishra, Sharib Hashmi.

While stitching, Tariq laments that Pakistan is behind India in the nuclear race and that’s all it takes for the brigadier to confirm to Tariq that Pakistan is developing its own nuclear program, that a scientist from abroad is heading it, and the facility is near Rawalpindi. The latter is another Indian spy, named Aslam (Hashmi) and there’s no explanation for how a man who sticks out like a sore thumb in every setting and is constantly behaving suspiciously, has evaded Pakistani intelligence. Rashmika Mandanna’s Nasreen is about as important to the plot as the third spare wheel of a two-wheeler. The brigadier’s response is not to send the uniforms back, but to call for the tailor to sew those buttons in his presence. This is a shame because Mission Majnu had the potential of being a thought-provoking look at patriotism, viewed through the lens of an action adventure film. [Mission Majnu](https://filmcompanion.in/tag/mission-majnu) finds its way to the toilet, literally and metaphorically. If not for the bullet-riddled climax and its lethargic pace, Mission Majnu could have easily passed as a screwball comedy thanks to the profusion of ridiculous plot points. He is told to find out more about Pakistan’s nuclear program and it’s in the process of doing this that Because it seems that in 1977, there was just one Western-style commode in Rawalpindi and it belonged to Khan, who has a foreigner wife. You’d think that a spy whose only job is to gather intelligence would already know this since the news is about three years old, but Tariq seems to be taken by surprise. The gent manning the phone at the “undercover RAW desk” in New Delhi informs Tariq that after India’s “Diwali” celebrations — that’s code for the nuclear bomb test — its neighbour also wants to celebrate “Diwali”. [Sidharth Malhotra](https://filmcompanion.in/tag/sidharth-malhotra)) the tailor is actually an undercover Indian agent named Amandeep Ajitpal Singh.

Mission Majnu Review: कमजोर कहानी ने सिद्धार्थ मल्होत्रा की डुबोई ... (Hindustan हिंदी)

फिल्म: मिशन मजनू · कलाकार: सिद्धार्थ मल्होत्रा, रश्मिका मंदाना, शारिब हाशमी, कुमुद मिश्रा, ...

फिल्म की कहानी 70 के दशक पर आधारित है। भारतीय जासूस अमनदीप अजीतपाल सिंह पाकिस्तान में तारिक (सिद्धार्थ मल्होत्रा) बनकर पहुंचता है। पंजाब के अमनदीप को देशद्रोही का बेटा कहा जाता है लेकिन अब वह अपनी मां के नाम से यह दाग हटाना चाहता है। वह पाकिस्तान में मिशन मजनू पर जाता है। उसका लक्ष्य परमाणु हथियार कार्यक्रम का खुलासा करना है। इस मिशन में उसका साथ दो अन्य भारतीय जासूस शारिब हाशमी और कुमुद मिश्रा देते हैं। बॉलीवुड फिल्म है तो जाहिर है लव एंगल भी होना है। तारिक को नेत्रहीन नसरीन (रश्मिका मंदाना) मिलती है जिससे वह शादी कर लेता है। नसरीन को उसके इस मिशन के बारे में कुछ भी पता नहीं होता। इधर भारत में सरकार बदल जाती है जो कि पाकिस्तान के साथ संबंधों को बदलना चाहती है। इन सबके बावजूद रॉ प्रमुख (परमीत सेठी) मिशन मजनू जारी रखता है। क्लाइमेक्स तक आते-आते कन्फ्यूजन भी दिखता है, कहानी ढीली सी पड़ती है। फिर भी कई मौके आते हैं जब रोंगटे खड़े हो जाते हैं। [हिंदी न्यूज़](/) [मनोरंजन](/entertainment/) [फिल्म रिव्यू](/entertainment/film-review/)Mission Majnu Review: कमजोर कहानी ने सिद्धार्थ मल्होत्रा की डुबोई नैया, ‘शेरशाह’ जैसा दम नहीं Mission Majnu Review: कमजोर कहानी ने सिद्धार्थ मल्होत्रा की डुबोई नैया, ‘शेरशाह’ जैसा दम नहीं

Mission Majnu Review: I Spy Silly (Rediffmail)

If you want to make your enemy look like a threat, at least make them formidable, sighs Sukanya Verma.

If you want to make your enemy look like a threat, at least make them formidable. Another source of constant exasperation is how Tariq is berated by a grump (Zakir Hussain) he reports to on the other side of the landline for being a traitor's son. Wearing a nose ring and smiling in response to everything is Rashmika's role in a nutshell. If you want to make your enemy look like a threat, at least make them formidable, sighs Sukanya Verma. Of course, it's no stationery but a hush-hush nuclear power plant that Pakistan conspires to set up after learning about India's successful nuclear bomb test run in Pokhran. That vitriolic tone of hyper-nationalism championed by Sunny Deol in the late 1990s makes a toned-down return in Mission Majnu's reproachful voiceover that paints Pakistan like a petulant child crying for a fancy pencil box because India has one too.

Mission Majnu Movie Review: Sidharth Malhotra Leads A Mission ... (koimoi)

Sidharth Malhotra needs to stop being formulaic or else be ready to accept the fate many 'A-listers in Bollywood have - Mission Majnu Movie Review Out!

[Google News](https://news.google.com/s/CBIwo7yAqUE) This is Shantanu Bagchi’s debut film, apart from this he has made an ad for Nycil Cool Shower (as per IMDb) & I knew he had some connections with the bathroom to keep a ‘western toilet’ espionage trick in the film. 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. 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. 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. Of course, he’s the best student in his batch, so R&AW head RN Kao (Parmeet Sethi) chooses him for this mission.

'Mission Majnu' movie review: Siddharth Malhotra cannot be ... (The Hindu)

Half as entertaining as the title, Shantanu Bagchi's spy thriller, starring Siddharth Malhotra and Rashmika Mandanna, evokes more yawns than wows.

Siddharth is a little too eye catchy to slip into the character of a spy in a film that is trying to be realistic. However, what irks is how a spy can find true love while serving undercover in a foreign land, but his assumed religious identity never comes his way in our spy films. Kao (Parmeet Sethi) and the political figures involved in the political and intelligence slugfest.

Mission Majnu Twitter review: Sidharth Malhotra's film wins fans over (Hindustan Times)

Sidharth Malhotra and Rashmika Mandanna starrer-Mission Majnu leaves fans emotional. However, many of them also wish for a theatrical release of the spy ...

The Hindustan Times review of the film read, “Mission Majnu boasts of a winner plot that's high on patriotism and heroic deeds. However, the story, jointly written by Aseem Arrora, Sumit Batheja and Parveez Shaikh, falters at several places and doesn't let Mission Majnu hit hard.” The trailer showed Sidharth playing the 'simple' tailor who moves in and out of key places in Pakistan to report back to India about their nuclear facility. Ye dono film nahi feelings hai (Shershah and Mission Majnu are feelings).” Yet another one pointed out, “I would have loved to watch this movie in the theatre.” Directed by Shantanu Bagchi, Mission Majnu is based on true events from the 1970s. The film also stars Kumud Mishra and Sharib Hashmi. It is also affecting people a lot because patriotic slogans are given as much as possible and are the most preferred thing. Amazing performance from Sid, steals the show in it. Loved the climax part, might bring tears. “Just finished #MissionMajnu Unlike most movies, this one shows us that you don't need chest thumping to be called a patriotic. Going by the Twitter review of Mission Majnu, fans have heaped praises on the fresh on-screen pair.
