We all have seen many films full of action, romance, and thriller, but this is one such movie which tells the tale of the real heroes of the country. When did corona happen, how did it happen, and how much did it happen? Almost everyone in the country knows that people lost their lives due to corono. But you might not know how much struggle many people had to make the Corona vaccine and how much opposition they had to face during this time. The film has emphasised on women scientists in the country who have made the biggest contribution in making of the vaccine. 

The passion of the country's scientists 

A film is judged on certain parameters be it actor, acting, story, dialogue, music, etc. But this film is based on a true incident so it will be judged on its treatment. If such a film is made worth watching even on subjects like science and Covid vaccine, which keeps you engaged for 2 hours and 41 minutes, then it is indeed a big achievement of the film. Initially, you will definitely find this film boring because it shows what is virus, what is science, and lab testing which only a scientist can understand, but later on seeing the passion of the scientist for the country, you will start finding this film entertaining.

Story of the film:

The film begins with the lockdown. During this time, there is silence on the entire road but the policemen continue to perform their duty and are seen paying attention to ensure that people do not come out of their homes. After this, the story starts from January 1, 2020, when the whole country is celebrating New Year, during this time ICMR Chief Balram Bhargava comes to know about a virus whose patient is found in Wuhan, China. Then the country's fight against an epidemic like Corona begins from here.

During this time, the obstacles faced by the scientists were shown. Seeing the passion with which they work, you will definitely feel proud of them.

By writing posts, they were trying to defame the government and the country. They were saying that 'India cannot do it.' But in this film, Nana Patekar in the role of ICMR Chief Balram Bhargava proved with his India can do it dialogue that if the people of India decide to do something, they can definitely do it. It was very pleasant to see Nana in this important role on the big screen.
