ETimes review for ‘Wagah’
We gave the film a rating of 1.5 star out of 5 and our review reads, “What we get are mainly corny lines like how fences between nations cannot stop the wind from blowing from one side to the other, and how one country’s destruction will not result in the development of another. But with no proper set-ups, they end up as being unintentionally funny. The Kumaravelan who gave us Haridas would have latched on to such moments and underscored the bitter irony of how a person, who is from a place 3000km away is accepted in Kashmir, while another, who lives a mere 20km from her grandfather’s home, is told that she doesn’t belong there.”
Meanwhile, Ranya Rao recently made headlines after being arrested at the Bengaluru International Airport on March 3 for allegedly attempting to smuggle 14.2 kg of gold while returning from Dubai. The Directorate of Revenue Intelligence (DRI) has indicated that she was part of a larger smuggling syndicate.
