War Chhod Na Yaar movie review: This war is fun

The last week's action comedy not only disappointed the mass audience in a big way but also tremble their belief over the big names.Stars: Sharman Joshi, Soha Ali Khan, Javed Jafferi, Dalip Tahil, Mukul Dev, Sanjay MishraDirector- Faraz Haider Ratings-**1/2Capitalising over the loss made to ‘Besharam' through the negative word of mouth, the debutant director has come up with his slapstick comedy which has many things in unique. It's been years that any director attempted to make flicks on war and now when we have one, its fun. The idea surely sounds good but is it fascinating enough? Let's find it out. Story starts off with Rut Dutta (Soha Ali Khan), Reporter of a new channel who gets the opportunity to cover the war between India and Pakistan. She ventures towards Indo-Pak border where she meets Raj (Sharman Joshi) captain of Indian army. Down across the border we get to meet Qureshi (Jaaved Jaaferi) Captain of Pakistan army and Pak's Commander in Chief Khan Saab (Sanjay Mishra) who doesn't have the balls to control his army. Now how the war, which looks so tense from outside, takes place amusingly, that is what Faraz Haider delves into. Director Faraz Haider who knows the violent nature of Indo-Pak relationship doesn't emphasize over the rage factor in the combative war to make the neighboring nation anxious but teases them by making their fun through his drama. Though, looks unauthentic and unreasonable but despite of numerous flaws, the media coverage of the entire war being one of them, the style of engaging is worth to be noted. You may also not digest the India, Pakistan America and China's official communication which has Dalip Tahil representing all four nations. But we get director's intention of not making the plot of violent. Faraz through his characters make the battle field looks like a comedy circus which is silly in larger way still tickles your funny bone. However the climax go a bit stereotype but till then you well get ample of laughter dose. Look out for the ‘tension handling session' between Sharman Joshi and Javed Jaaferi followed by Antakshari between their army.Following them is Pak's unprepared and lethargic nature of commencing war too is pleasant. The actors did a commendable job. Sharman Joshi is man in command as he adds one more good performance in his bank. Soha Ali Khan could have been more zealous in her act. Javed Jaafery displays a good show altogether. Sanjay Mishra was recently seen in ‘Phata Poster Nikla Hero' where he excelled. He did it again with ‘War Chhod Na Yaar'. Music by Aslam Keyi will just work for the flick. But there is nothing commendable. It will go with two and a half stars for ‘War Chhod Na Yaar'. It works if you don't look out for sense.
