Airlift will not bring a lump to your throat nor does it make you cry. Then what does it exactly do? Itt ells things in a straight-forward manner without any melodrama. But again, it manages to strike the right chord in you. That’s where the success of the movie lies.
Plot
During August 1990, about 1,70,000 Indians were stranded in Kuwait, which was raided by Iraq. Ranjit Katyal, who likes to see profit in his business, doesn’t have any great feeling for his home country, India. Also, he is affluent enough to move away from Kuwait with his wife and daughter. But he doesn’t do so. He sees to it that 1,70,000 Indians are also safe.
Star Performances

, the director of Airlift, succeeds in making a film on an unsung hero. There is a sense of prudence in every scene, and the script is written in a sharp manner. The movie is all about the disgusting effect of military heroics on the common people. At the end, of the movie, we learn that the character Ranjith Katyal is inspired by two men who were instrumental in the biggest military evacuation.
What’s there?
What’s not there?
The second half seems to lack little pace.
