The movie starring Amir Khan and Kareena Kapoor Khan is a remake of Hollywood movie " Forest Gump starring Tom Hanks ". This movie traces the different time zones of India starting with Emergency of 1975 to Kargil war and Vice versa, to showcase those events it uses real time video clips that were then recorded by some media channels.

When it comes to acting performed by Amir Khan, it gives glimpse of Ranchho from 3 Idiots movie so there was a place to work with as in the remakes you are supposed to be the actual version actor if not better so Amir's acting did not do any justice to Tom hanks.

According to me there wasn't any need to show the Golden temple attack & the riots that broke out in capital and other places aftermath of Mrs. Indira Gandhi's murder because it was like adding pinch of salt on wounds especially in the contemporary period when after Farmer's agitation and some swelling up of Khalistan protesters in world as it poses a threat to the integrity of Our country. The production team could have choosen other time period of significant interests.

This movie shows the communal riots as Malaria, a disease, which is obviously great theme to name the riots. It also shows the soft power when Mr. Lal singh carry out the excursion of a terrorist from kargil to Indian safe camp because he wasn't able to distinguish between friendlies and enemies due to his psychological imbalance. But then this movie goes on to showcase how soft power can overcome a hardline terrorist who is brainwashed by the preachers of his community, This man helps Mr. Lal in handling his business then goes back to his house where to open a school and providing mainstream education to the children living there.

In the climax where he goes on a wild goose run this movie shows the different shades of India and different cultures. Overall it could have been a masterpiece teaching communal harmony and peace & tranquility among other nations if it had choosen some different time periods of History and few other significant changes in Script.
