PIPPA
STORY
REVIEW
This
film
offers
a
gripping
narrative
of
a
pivotal
battle
and
provides
a
firsthand
perspective
from
an
army
official,
drawing
inspiration
from
Brigadier
Balram
Singh
Mehta's
book,
The
Burning
Chaffees.
The
story
follows
the
journey
of
a
young
Mehta
and
India
as
they
both
rise
to
prove
themselves
in
a
war
aimed
at
liberating
another
nation.
The
battle
in
Garibpur
not
only
marked
a
significant
moment
in
Mehta's
coming-of-age
but
also
played
a
crucial
role
in
India's
triumph.
This
decisive
encounter,
led
by
Mehta,
marked
India's
first
successful
infiltration
and
occupation
of
enemy
territory,
ultimately
contributing
to
the
birth
of
Bangladesh.
As
expected,
Pippa
unfolds
as
a
compelling
narrative
with
an
intriguing
storyline.

Ishaan
Khatter
giving
one
of
his
best
performances

Priyanshu
Painyuli

another
fabulous
performance
and
stole
the
show
from
other
cast
members
along

Ishaan.
Mrunal
also
turned
out
to
be
a
strong
pillar
of
the
war

made
her

felt
as
Ram
and
Balram's
sister.
