Nuclear weapons and Star Wars...
Parmanu: The Story of Pokhran
Directed by Abhishek Sharma, film Parmanu: The Story of Pokhran is based on the nuclear bomb test explosions conducted by the Indian Army at Pokhran in 1998 under the leadership of India's future President Dr. APJ Abdul Kalam during the time of PM Atal Bihari Vajpayee's tenure. John Abraham plays the lead member of the Pokhran Nuclear test team. The film tells the audience about the failures and the hidden facts that no one paid attention to and brings out the unsung heroes of the experiment that put India on the map as global nuclear superpower.
Inspiration galore
This is the first time we got to see what happened in 1998. Such movies inspire our minds. After watching such films one respects the Indian Armed Forces and recognizes its worth.

More the merrier
This is a brilliant movie. Mostly, John Abraham produces great films that relate with Indian masses and this film’s theme is good too. More of such films should be made. I’ll give it four stars.

Nationalist spirit
Such films make us feel proud to be Indians and John Abraham’s acted really well.

The good and bad
It was a good movie, but it could have been a little better. It was a little boring in parts.
