It is always a relief to watch a film that sticks to the facts, considers every character seriously, and works carefully with issues that worry about the nation. The producers of ‘Ground Zero’ do the same, and offer an attractive film. Real-Life BSF (Border Security Force) officer Narendra Nath Dhar Dubey starring Emraan Hashmi, the film is based on an operation in Kashmir, with a prominent name responsible for the 2001 Parliament attack and a prominent name for the 2002 Akshardham attack in India.
The story of ‘Ground Zero’ begins on the field – Ground Zero – and ends there. Director Tejas Prabha Vijay Deoscar ensures that you are given nothing extra or less. This is the story of an understanding of a soldier as to whether he is at stake, and his commitment to the nation which depends on that and his armies, who nabs the Jai-e-Mohammed leader. No one said for this, but the film’s time cannot be more relevant. It is only a coincidence that a film based on a successful military campaign in Kashmir is released a few days after the cowardly Pahgam attack – when every Indian is beating for heart victims, is demanding justice for every life. That the manufacturers did not try to throw their relevance in our faces, it makes even more real watch in theaters.
Hashmi demonstrated ND Dubey with such honesty that only an old school actor can still find on the screen. He is brilliantly contained as an actor, never using melodrama, working completely like a soldier on duty. There is a feeling of calming on his face, when a storm is enraged from inside. Neither Hashmi nor the film rely in a big way on the idea of revenge and ‘Kashmir is ours‘Trop. Even if the latter is the motivational power of the operation. The mission is clear: to find the terrorist, and what he is planning further. You do not even listen to Pakistan once in the story.
What works for us how the film discovers the valley. Many films have not portrayed Kashmir in their entirety. ‘Haider’ is an exception, but ‘Ground Zero’ successfully brings the depth of the state, its colors, its mood, grief and a sense of fear to the streets. From the famous Shankaracharya Temple and Dal Lake to snow -covered mountains, the colorful arches of the traditionally built houses and the people filled with people dressed bright clothes coffin And FerringKashmir became an extended character in the film.
‘Ground zero’ is largely away from jingoism, although attempts to show the spirit of force “like” inspired by “like” like “like”This is Kashmir, Yahan Kuch Sure, Uncendent Nahi Hota. Bass is mock (This is Kashmir. Nobody is certain or uncertain, it is all about an opportunity), “or” or “or”This is Kashmir (This is Kashmir. You never know when the weather changes), “or a simple”Now there will be glory (It’s time to attack). ,
Hashmi’s chemistry with Tamhakar never looks strange. Her cameradery with her partner Jawans And friends connects enough pleasure and feelings to the film to establish their story. It neither makes you emotional nor fills you with anger, because it is also not the intention of the manufacturers. ‘Ground Zero’ simply presents a story closer to honesty, and tries to give you a good big screen experience.
It also does not make his villain a big man from life-a good step not to glorify a terrorist, but to make him look as small and irrelevant as possible. Not only for your dramatic relief, to build a character for the story.
‘Ground zero’ almost everything is correct, except for its dull speed. The second part of the film could be crisp. It could definitely look better with two less songs, and a well -closed climax. The end seems to be a miss – suddenly cut despite its ability. The film lacks closure.
Emraan Hashmi film has one-person force, and it is a regret that we do not get to see his earnest performance much often. He is probably a rare actor who has completed the right balance between settling a character completely and still looks like himself. ‘Ground Zero’ is one of his best performances. This is a surprising additional addition to Bollywood’s military-based stories and a subtle comment on the politics of the inner agency.

The idea that a soldier takes not because of his duty but to a mission because of that kind of man, is naturally powerful about it. This is a conflict that becomes even more difficult to deal with when he cannot show his patriotism loudly. He does not believe it. His relationship with his country is not accidental on his chest-tannas bravery on the field, but when he burns on fire, he remains a man looking for a good and safe life for his family. And not just his – a safe life for manipulation and injustice by both system and terrorism.
