The film presents the atrocities of war during Partition, with particular emphasis on the Punjab riots, where Hindus and Muslims kill each other on each group's migration to their destined country (India/Pakistan). Set during the 1947 India-Pakistan Partition, the film tells the love story between Tara Singh, a Sikh truck driver, and Sakina, a girl coming from an aristocratic Muslim family. Indeed, Gadar is pulp history, and it's not the best picture in its presentation of the warring sides. The film is a big blockbuster and was Amisha's 2nd blockbuster after her debut KNPH The film depicts the partition period but more on the love story actually and also mixes Sunny standard dishoom dishoom and anti Pakistani dialogues The film has several good emotional scenes and also the escape of Sunny- Amisha and the kid is well handled but there are too many loud and OTT scenes and Sunny removing a handpump and bashing 20000 goons at once or making people run away just with a shout The film also takes too many cinematic liberties like many scenes don't look like a period film and too modern In fact one doesn't feel they r watching a period film many times Also the KEY SERA SERA song was actually composed in 1956(the film depicts 1947) The climax is clichéd and too prolonged Direction by Anil Sharma is good Music is good Sunny does his role in his own style but is superb in emotional scenes which he was criticised before Amisha is too good in her part though at times her voice is a problem Amrish Puri does his usual villainy act but leaves a mark Vivek Shauq is decent, Lilette Dubey is good so are the rest
