Mayank C @RT22934259 Jun 11 I went into this expecting a generic, over-the-top patriotic movie, but it’s actually a really solid political thriller. The second half, especially the whole cat-and-mouse game trying to hide from the US satellites and spies, keeps you totally hooked. John Abraham does a great job playing a smart, regular guy instead of just his usual action hero persona.

See more 07/19/2020 Movie - paramanu Director- Avisek Sharma Cast- John Abraham, Diana penty, Mark beniggton etc Paramanu : the story of Pokhran is a good acceptable thriller which tells you the story of India's one of the most initial Nuclear Test conducted by India. Story starts in 1995 where an unsuccessful attempt is made because of lack of interest and focus of politicians; but opportunity knocks on John's door in 1998 where one of chief officer (Bomon Irani) shows interest and willingness in that idea. John is back to work and audience get ready to witness the preparation of testing nuclear weapons. To keep the operation covert is the biggest challenge ahead of the team because there is spy from Pakistan & satellites through which USA is keeping eye. Now to watch how they keep up with the operation going on with avoiding the satellites is the most intriguing and fun part of the movie. You know how it will end but it succeeds in creating that urgency and excitement, especially in the second half. First half has its own unwanted scenes which could have been avoided i.e. John's wife accusing him of being unfaithful and all, which creates unintentional humour in such serious situation. Screenplay is mostly good but it could have been more crispier if some scenes were edited. John Abraham does his best as a patriotic R&D officer, Diana did a faithful job and Boman is amazing as always with other cast. Overall Abhishek Sharma directorial is an entertaining movie providing a glance inone of chapters of Indian history.John and all other producers should be encouraged for choosing such a winner subject. See more 06/07/2020 Good movie with Decent acting and great story. See more 03/11/2020 Abhishek Sharma's execution doesn't lack in the much needed lightness of touch. But keeping aside a few especially rousing and emotional monologues, 'Parmanu' is a far from perfect recreation of a truly historical event. John Abraham doesn't deliver the punch the film could have used for being atleast superficially gripping. There is nothing really delivered on a deliberately tense note, largely because the screenplay consists of inconsistent and forgettable dialogues. See more Read all reviews
