Sam Bahadur, All Aboard, Pippa, Trip to Greece

Watched four movies as mentioned above.

Sam Bahadur

  • This movie was watched on the big screen.
  • I liked the movie.
  • Facts which can be deduced from the movie
    • Bahadur was like a honorific surname as he was part of Gurkha (Nepal) regiment (Bahadur is common surname amongst Nepalis).
    • Sam decided the date when India Pakistan war would happen and that is December 3.
    • He gave two chits to Mrs Gandhi which had the details.
    • Sam also decided what would be broadcasted on the radio by Mrs Indira Gandhi.
    • Sam just needed the time to make Indian Army "get ready" 
    • It also means that Pakistan might never have targeted 12 airfields across North India as was accused of in the first place.
    • It could have been a "false/fake news" and based on that India wages war.
    • Based on the news in 13 days the war was over and Bangladesh emerged.
    • Though he retired in 1973 he led a quiet life till his passing away in 2008.
  • Worth watching this movie

All Aboard

  • This French movie was watched on Bookmyshow stream.
  • A fun adventure movie where elders lose sight of the young and the young "have a blast" across several hundred miles in train journey.
  • Worth watching this movie.

Pippa

  • This 1971 war movie was seen in Amazon Prime Video.
  • Too good war scenes and worth watching.
  • Sam Manekshaw is also in the movie.
  • He requests Mrs Gandhi to do military operation 10 kms inside East Pakistan unofficially and that makes Yahya Khan go crazy and he attacks India officially.
  • So that makes Pakistan guilty in the eyes of the world and India attacks with full force.
  • It stops like suggesting that there was fake news involved.
  • Worth watching.

Trip to Greece

  • This movie seems like final instalment or Part 4 of "The Trip" series starring Steven Coogan and Rab Brydon.
  • Well made and shows the beauty of Greece, blue skies, green forests, emerald and blue seas.
  • Worth watching.
