Anti-war film!


"TANGO CHARLIE" — what a weird name for a Hindi film starring Ajay Devgan, Bobby Deol, Sanjay Dutt and Tanisha? This film is directed by Mani Sharma who had made that racy "December 16" and a forgettable "Rudraksh". "Tango Charlie" is a universal telegraphic code used by soldiers and seamen. Here T and C represent its hero Tarun Chauhan (Bobby Deol) and it is India's first anti-war film, a popular genre in Hollywood. It highlights the impact of war and the destruction it causes on society. In "Tango Charlie", set against the backdrop of the Bodo rebellion, a group of soldiers, led by Bobby Deol and Ajay Devgan, are airdropped into a jungle and made to combat their way through. "Tango Charlie" is basically an action film with some great special effects.
