Jai Jawaan Jai Kisaan (named after the late PM's popular slogan) is merely a textbook representation of the iconic leader's life, which probably caters to kids under the age of 10. A school play could be more effective than this.
Film review ·
If you are a Lal Bahadur Shastri fan and revere history, don't waste your sentiments on this film. A primary school skit is put together with more finesse.
Film review ·
Usually, if anyone dares to criticize the craft behind 'well-intentioned tributes', the perpetrator's lack of patriotism and respect is invoked. However, today I am fighting for freedom: from mediocrity, and from oppression in cinema halls.

this 'film' certainly does not deserve a ticket sold… leave alone being called a biopic on India's second Prime Minister, and someone who had the heart to send his own kids on public transport while he was the country's most important man!
