This looks like it'll be interesting for the sheer novelty of the subject, but oh lord there are a lot of inaccuracies. Probably the worst being that radio broadcast announcing the start of WWII, or the Germans wearing WWII style Stahlhelms and using British weaponry.
I bet with proper resources and help they would have made it accurate but we must consider that they don't have the same access to props and weapons. Not to mention to them WW1 was a conflict far away so their audience would not even notice those inaccuracies. Reason they all use british weapons is because that is all the old weapons they have in storage after british left.
I really applaud them for doing this, i can imagine there isn't any movies like this made in their country.
Like I said, it'll be interesting for the sheer novelty of it. Non-white soldiers in WWI are rarely discussed, so it's really cool to see a movie made about it.
bollywood action plus interesting war movie theme is a great mixture. excited to see how it turns out!
There's another one coming out next month about the Indo-China war which looks even more over the top and oh man I definitely want to see that one.

World War 1
God that bugs me
I like the idea (for both films) just a shame that they're going for soap opera melodrama.
Can't wait for the inevitable dance number, too.
More Crazy Bollywood Action is always a welcome in my book.
