Talk About Your Favourite Movie.
- What Is the Name of The Movie?
- What Is the Theme of The Movie?
- Why Do You Like It?
In this modern era, with the advent of technology, there are vast sources of entertainment in society. One of these sources is the theatre, where one could feel relaxed by watching his favourite movie π¬πΏ.
Movies are based on different kinds of themes like comedy, action, drama, horror, romantic, historical, religious, and patriotic. Today, I would like to talk about my favourite movie, which I saw with my friends at Orbit Cinema a few years ago.
It is a patriotic movie directed and produced by JP Dutta, who is a renowned filmmaker in the Bollywood industry. The movie is Border.
Border is a 1997 Indian war film based on the Battle of Longewala during the Indo-Pakistani War of 1971. The film starred an ensemble cast including Sunny Deol, Sunil Shetty, Akshaye Khanna, and Jackie Shroff in pivotal roles π₯.
The film is an adaptation of real-life events that occurred during the Battle of Longewala. It was screened retrospectively on August 13, 2016, at the Independence Day Film Festival, commemorating the 70th Indian Independence Day. It was the second-highest-grossing Bollywood film of the year worldwide and the highest-grossing film of the year in India.
Major Kuldeep Singh Chandpuri (Sunny Deol) and his battalion of 120 soldiers were prepared to face about 2000 Pakistani soldiers with their tank regiments, despite India having no tank regiments of its own.
They had no armed forces either, just 120 soldiers and their courage. They requested help from the Air Force, but unfortunately, only hunter flights were available, which couldn’t operate at night.
These aircraft could only be used in the morning. This meant that the 120 soldiers had to hold off the 2000 Pakistani soldiers with their tanks overnight.
Despite orders from higher command to retreat, Major Kuldeep Singh and his battalion stood their ground, fighting to the death but not surrendering their motherland to the enemy.
They fought until the end, and when the first flight of the Air Force arrived on the battlefield, the Pakistani soldiers retreated. A tribute and a salute to all those 120 soldiers who fought against 2000 Pakistani soldiers ποΈπ.

Q-1: What kind of movies do you like other than patriotic movies?
Ans: I enjoy comedy movies other than patriotic ones because, in this fast-paced world, everyone feels stress and tension in their life. The same thing happens with me. So, to relax, I prefer to watch comedy movies like Hera Pheri, Housefull, Golmaal, etc. ππΏ.
Q-2: What is the difference between techniques for making films in the present and past time?
Ans: In the past, when movies were new to the market, techniques were not so developed. The print of movies was black and white. However, with the advent of technology, a variety of techniques have come into the film industry. Nowadays, films are released not only in colour but also with three-dimensional features ποΈπ.
Q-3: What kinds of films are more successful in this modern era?
Ans: Producers make films on different topics, but as I mentioned earlier, worries and tension in people’s lives are increasing day by day. To get relaxation from their worries, they prefer to watch comedy movies ππ.
