Code Name Tiranga film assessment: Parineeti Chopra’s spy thriller doesn’t provide a single second of pleasure

2 min read

The solely manner you possibly can wade via Code Name Tiranga is to swing between disbelief and tedium. But first, a query. Can you swallow Parineeti Chopra being the form of lethal Indian agent who is ready to deal with a dozen and extra gun-laden terrorists and their harmful mastermind all on her ownsome? Like single-handedly? In that case, this movie is for you.

If not, that is what it’s important to face. Chopra as Durga, valiant undercover spy, cosying as much as good-looking half-Indian half-Turkish physician Mirza (Hardy Sandhu), someplace in Afghanistan. Sharad Kelkar because the enemy primary, the dastard chargeable for the assault on the Indian parliament, now hiding out in Turkey. Divyendu Bhattacharya as Durga’s handler, talking urgently into walky-talkies, and sneaking his manner out of ambushes. Rajit Kapoor as a canny operative, diving into save courageous ‘desis’ in overseas lands. And Shishir Sharma as a Pakistani agent, attempting to be very sensible.

Skilled feminine operatives will not be new: just a few months in the past, we had Kangana Ranaut as Agent Agni in ‘Dhaakad’. But even that movie, which died for all the precise causes, had a number of moments of curiosity. Here, the whole lot seems to be as if it has been plucked out of comparable spy flicks each in Hollywood and Bollywood. Middle-Eastern places. Locals concerned with the unhealthy guys. A fortress-like hideout which has many rooms just for unhealthy guys to tumble out of.

The solely time you watch is when Durga and Mirza murmur candy nothings to one another. The relaxation is nothing however a rinse-and-repeat expanse. Not one second of pleasure. Not even when Chopra goes on a solo rampage, knocking off one terrorist after one other in pursuit of the largest of all of them. Nope.
