Story (Sarfira Movie Review 2024)

The story of Akshay’s {Sarfira} film is about a common man who, with the support of his family, friends and strong will, fights against the world’s most capital-intensive sector to fly the common man in an airplane. This film is inspired by a real incident that happened in the life of Air Deccan founder Captain G.R. Gopinath.

Let us tell you that this film tells the inspirational story of Jagannath Mahatre, who dreams of challenging social barriers by launching a low-cost airline. Adapted from GR Gopinath’s memoir “Simply Fly: A Deccan Odyssey” and directed by Sudha Kongara, the film stands out for its unique treatment and execution. The script effectively balances emotions as it delves into Veer’s fight against corruption, power dynamics and class disparities in pursuit of his dream.

Talking about acting, apart from Akshay Kumar and Radhika Madan, all the stars including Paresh Rawal and Seema Biswas have done justice to their characters. You will find everyone’s acting perfect. The first half of the film will excite you so much that you will start waiting for the second half and by the time the second half arrives, you will become very emotional. The film will end, but you will feel as if the story continues and you just keep watching.

What a wonderful direction Sudha Kongara has done. You can watch this film made under her direction with your entire family. Apart from emotions, there is a lot more in this film, which will boost your morale. It is said that cinema is the biggest medium of communication and if films like ‘Sarfira’ start being made, then a very good message will reach the people. The music of GV Prakash Kumar, Tanishk Bagchi and Suhit Abhyankar in the film is also very good. 3 -4 stars for ‘Sarfira’ from my opinion.
