Story: Movie is an adaptation of the book series India’s Most Fearless: True Stories of Modern Military Heroes by Shiv Aroor and Rahul Singh which contains a segment based on Mukund. We follow the voice of Indhu (Sai Pallavi) who recounts the life story of her slain husband Mukund (Sivakarthikeyan) in a flight journey from Chennai to New Delhi, where she is set to collect the Ashok Vir Chakra, which is India’s highest peacetime gallantry medal.

Flashbacks after flashbacks reveal Mukund as a son, boyfriend, husband and father, alongside his roles in the Army as an officer trainee, lieutenant, captain and major, as the story moves from Chennai to Kashmir and back. Mukund Varadarajan has his goals set right from fifth standard. A field trip to the Officers Training Academy (OTA) in Chennai sowed the seeds of joining the military in him.

Years later, while pursuing his graduation at Madras Christian College, he meets his ladylove Indhu Rebecca Varghese. They fall head over heels in love with each other. For Indhu, she has to love Mukund and his passion as well. When Mukund’s duty takes him across the country, she has no choice but to hold the fort for him at home.

While he fights a national war, she fights the war with herself. As Mukund gets promoted as Major, he heads the 44th Rashtriya Rifles. He takes on counterterrorism duties in Kashmir and drafts plans to eliminate the heads of a terrorist organization in Kashmir. The film showcases how Mukund grows up the ranks in the Indian army and finally loses his life while gunning the deadly terrorists in Kashmir.

Durgesh Tiwary’s View: When I watched the trailer of this film planned to watch this movie in cinemas on Day 1 as loved the trailer and fond of real-life heroes’ biopics. A true-life story of Major Mukund Varadarajan, a commissioned officer in the Indian Army`s Rajput Regiment, who was posthumously awarded the Ashok Chakra for his valor during a counterterrorism operation while on deputation to the 44th Rashtriya Rifles battalion in Jammu and Kashmir.

Biopics like this come with a unique challenge: since audiences already know the outcome, there’s little room for surprises. Directors often leverage the emotional depth of such stories to create resonance, sometimes stirring complex emotions or evoking our deepest fears. Filmmaker Rajkumar Periasamy as expected, focuses on these emotional elements, ultimately leaving the audience with a deeper understanding of the human conflict hidden beneath layers of turmoil. It follows a familiar path seen in previous biopics of Indian soldiers. However, the unique pairing of Sai Pallavi and Sivakarthikeyan creates an all-consuming cinematic experience. It skillfully highlights the complexities of the security situation in Jammu and Kashmir. He reveals how the Indian Army operates under immense constraints, displaying restraint, judgment, and courage in the face of forces that often blend into the crowd. Sivakarthikeyan as Major Mukund Varadarajan showcases a never-seen-before side in Amaran. His demeanor and body language suits the role he took up and does full justice to it. Amaran is strong on the technical front as well. Composer GV Prakash’s background score does the perfect job of elevating the mood of the film. Cinematographer CH Sai wonderfully captured the topography of Kashmir, and the battle sequences need special mention.

Amaran’s emotional sequences overpower the war sequences, and it could be because everyone knows how the story ends. Nonetheless, the war sequences are done with precision and keep us on the edge of our seats. It is also a film that highlights the struggles that the families of our army men go through. They fear the worst news and yet lead their lives with a smile on their faces. The first half of Amaran delves deep into the love story of Mukund and Indhu, and it puts a smile on your face. The slow buildup reaches a crescendo at the interval when Mukund neutralizes an important terrorist. This sets the tone for the pulsating second half that focuses on the repercussions of the Rashtriya Rifles’s action. It is undoubtedly a film one can watch with their entire family. There is something in it for everyone, from old people to children. However, as meritorious and well-made the movie is, one cannot help but wonder if it was a right choice for the makers of the film to release Amaran for Diwali. Overall movie stands as one of the finest portrayals of the Indian Army on screen. It is a beautiful, emotional and intriguing ode to Major Mukund Varadarajan and army men like him. Even with all the glitches in between, the film makes us cherish and celebrate Mukund and the courageous officer he was. My view on this movie Highly Recommended.
