Sara Ali Khan's new movie, "Ae Watan Mere Watan," directed by Kannan Iyer and produced by Karan Johar, is now available on Amazon Prime Video starting today, March 21.
The film gets into India's fight for independence in 1942, revolving around the courageous Usha Mehta, who establishes an underground radio station during the Quit India movement to propagate unity, leading to a gripping cat-and-mouse game with British authorities.
Starring Sara Ali Khan alongside Anand Tiwari and Sachin Khedekar, the film's Twitter reception has been mixed.
Social media is abuzz with divergent opinions as netizens express their thoughts on the historical biopic.
While some laud its portrayal of the freedom struggle and Khan's performance, others critique various aspects of the film. As the virtual debate rages on, it remains to be seen how the movie fares amidst the contrasting reviews on Twitter.
One of the X users wrote, "Acting bhi to aani chahiye !! Sara is boosted only on nepotism !!Ae Watan Mere Watan Movie Review: Sara Ali Khan could have done a better job as freedom fighter Usha Mehta | Amazon Prime Video."
Another user said, "Freedom fighter biopic done wrong. They've done a good job making a real story look artificial. Generally a movie's job is to make a fictional story look real. But movie looks so artificial. Sara ali khan is a bit excessive in acting."
One user appreciated the movie but had doubts about Sara's acting and expressed, "Directed by Kannan Iyer, this historical drama is an engaging and well narrated tale of an unsung hero from India's struggle for independence, Usha Mehta. However, #SaraAliKhan really struggles to hit the high notes of the character. Emraan Hashmi's portrayal of Ram Manohar Lohia is impressive."
Meanwhile, Reddit users were also not happy with Sara's acting and were seen expressing their views.
One said, "When i saw the trailer. I knew the role was tailor made for sanya malhotra. She would have killed it."
Another wrote, "She is a bad actor. Was somehow okay in kedarnath but messed up atrangi re, another small town character."
Ae Watan Mere Watan is a movie that tells an exciting story about an underground radio station. The main character, a courageous young girl, leads the way in changing India's battle for freedom.
