War Chod Na Yaar, just watched this pleasant touching war comedy. It's a refreshing fun packed satire and arguably India's first war comedy. Sharman Joshi as a Jat Captain acted really well so is Javed Japhri as Captain Kurashi from Pakistan. I came across this nice review and I second with it.
I give it 4/5. A quality movie not to be missed in these days mindless bull$hits.
Faraz Haider's War Chhod Na Yaar is a welcome and refreshing satire on wars. The Indo-Pak border counts as one of the world's most hostile regions but Haider's tender story dishes out a wickedly told film filled with engaging humor that will have you in splits. The commendable effort and the clever take on the theme of war puts across a more poignant message of futility of wars without trivializing the intention of it!
"The film's script and execution is both so interestingly done that watching it will be amply satiating. Luckily it is a simply told story that focuses on making you laugh and yet drives home the reason why the camaraderie works! A humorously weaved satire on how the mechanics of war works, we are presented with a story where soldiers from either end of the border discuss what's for lunch. They sit across the line of control and play cards.
"Director Faraz Haider has carried out his job quite well and you know that for sure when at the end of the film audiences burst into a loud applause.
"Faraz Haider's War Chhod Na Yaar is a treat of film that manages to evoke moments of ecstatic delight with its simplistic take on the horrific brutality of war which pointlessly creates havoc in the lives of people. The film could have gone massively wrong but the good part about this flick is, it convinces you about its premise entertainingly."
Sometimes try Stanley Kubrick's - Dr. Strangelove
