'Mission Majnu' Ending, Explained: Is It Based On True Events ... (Digital Mafia Talkies)

The central figure of this action drama is Amandeep Ajit Pal Singh, portrayed by Sidharth Malhotra. Amandeep is a covert agent who goes by the name Tariq in ...

While Amandeep was ridiculed for being the son of a traitor, he had a fire burning within him to prove his love and dedication towards his country. He did not wish for his child to remember him as a traitor; he wanted his child to be proud of the sacrifice their father made for India. He was shot to death, and Nasreen learned the truth after reaching Dubai from the Chief of RAW, R. Amandeep was hated for being the son of a traitor, but instead of succumbing to the hate, he remembered the love that he was showered with. He took pictures of the town, but just as he was about to take pictures of the facility, he and Aslam were caught by the Pakistani military. To distract the military’s attention from Nasreen, he declared that he was an Indian. He contacted General Zia and disclosed that India was aware of Pakistan’s nuclear facility in Kahuta, and he demanded that he shut down the facility. He could not allow Pakistan’s reputation to be spoiled, and the immediate shutting down of the facility was the necessary step. Initially, he thought of risking his life to get to the facility, but later, when he heard a man discuss the side effects of X-ray emission, he was struck by a brilliant plan. The mission was labeled “Mission Majnu,” and Amandeep dedicated his life to making the mission a success. Amandeep was aware that he had to get the exact location, but he needed time to find out all about the plant. He knew that Tariq was uneducated and earned a meager wage, but when Nasreen declared that she wanted to get married to him, he could not say no.

Stream It Or Skip It: 'Mission Majnu' on Netflix, a Loosey-Goosey ... (Decider)

Stream It Or Skip It: 'Mission Majnu' on Netflix, a Loosey-Goosey Bollywood Outing That Blends Serious Political Intrigue with Romance, Action, and Comedy.

And the action sequences are deeply silly – watch Amandeep take on a horde of Pakistani soldiers atop a moving train in a sequence that makes a Bruce Lee showdown against a million-zillion ninjas seem plausible. So the pressure’s on Amandeep to hold together his string of crazy gambits and prevent a terrible, terrible war! So maybe the oddly juxtapositional tone is a tad problematic, and Bagchi’s attempt at cramming in a few things shy of the kitchen sink renders the film about 20 minutes past the point of testing our patience – but at least it’s generally entertaining. And so Tariq and Nasreen get married and live a very, very modest life on the pitiful salary of a sub-tailor. And so Amandeep never seems to work at the tailor shop or be home, and Nasreen never thinks to question what he does at all hours of the day and night. He’s disarmingly handsome and is so good at playing a simple, illiterate fellow, his sneaky interrogation of a Pakistani general – Amandeep talks his way into his house under the guise of repairing the buttons on his uniform – seems like the innocent questions of a lowly needle-and-thread man.
