Red Alert - The War Within (New Hindi Film / Bollywood Movie / Indian Cinema DVD) [DVD]

Red Alert: the War Within' is based on the true story of
Narasimha (Suniel Shetty), a poor farm labourer who desperately needs money to
fund the education of his children. To earn his way, he finds himself in the
midst of the Naxalite movement, forced to make difficult, and morally
questionable, choices.At first, he starts as a mere cook for the terrorist
group. Before too long, he graduates to weapons training, shootouts and
kidnappings. A good, kind man trying to earn for his family, Narasimha finds
himself in a position he had never bargained for; a man left with no
choices.The conflicted Narasimha's life gets more complicated when a
confrontation with the group leader (Ashish Vidyarthi) turns his world upside
down; now he's caught in the middle of the law and the militants.The only way
Narasimha can survive is when he finally takes matters into his own hands.
Does he follow his conscience and thwart the movement? Or, does he look out
for himself and his family, and embrace the Naxal cause?Though 'Red Alert: the
War Within' is the account of one man, it embodies the true conflict facing
the impoverished: Do we fight to protect a nation that has forgotten us? Or,
do we fight to survive and feed ourselves? Do we really have any choice?'Red
Alert: the War Within' is based on a real life story, culled straight from
today's torrid headlines. Review Suneil Shetty and Ashish Vidyarthi are
earnest and engrossing. Scene Stealer? Naseeruddin Shah, despite being
relegated to just a single scene. It may be politically correct in its tenor,
but Red Alert does make you sit up and demand attention. Specially in a season
when political cinema is raising its banner in Bollywood. --platform47.com
