Both Saif and shahid were aware that the film will be a disaster and that's why these two didn't even show interest in promoting with the psycho kangna who not only embarrassed herself but the whole team by making a joke out of the film's promotions.

The entire blame for this failure should be on her shoulder since she got the most attention and buzz and was given the stage to promote. Also she herself said that she's doing a favor by working with Saif and shahid so basically I don't think the male leads can be blamed much .

The movie was not relatable because I don't think we or our history highlights the Burma war stuff as something significant. It's not part of our history lore so to see a story set there without any new insights felt insignificant. Also I felt VB got carried away with Hollywood where they have many war movies based in south Asian countries and where major stars entertaining troops during war was very popular. I am not sure if we had that tradition but even if we had it was not a very popular or well known one for people to relate to. For me I think that was the biggest disconnect, you make a supposedly historical reference film where nobody could connect with the history. The history felt too westernised.

Could have done with more intrigue. Both Saif and Kangana and to a certain extent Shahid were really good. Saif especially was really good. He personified the character. Would have loved to see the love triangle play out without the backdrop of Rangoon war but instead the backdrop of Bollywood during that time with all its liberalism and yet conservatism.


Agreed. Saif better than Kangana & Shahid. Before released, everyone talking about Kangana & shahid is the best item in Rangoon. Nobody mention Saif. But, when I'm watched the movie online, I was surprised, Saif stole the show. He is the best thing in Rangoon. And also his on-screen wife. Betted than Kangana.
