Cast: Akshay Kumar, Sonakshi Sinha, Govinda, Sumeet Raghavan, Farhad Daruwala, Gireesh Sahedev, Zakir Hussain
Direction: A.R. Murugadoss
Duration: 2 hours 50 minutes
Story: The remake of of the Tamil ‘Thupakki’. Holiday is a story of an army man Virat Bakshi (Akshay Kumar) who is on a leave to do bride hunting and meets Sahiba (Sonakshi Sinha). While he is Mumbai a terror blast kills school kids in a bus and along with his friend (Sumeet Raghavan) he catches a terrorist who is part of a sleeper cell. After this his holiday becomes havoc and he is engaged in a cat and mouse game with a terror mastermind (Freddy Daruwala to salvage Mumbai from exploding into flames.
Music: The music of the film is composed by Pritam Chakraborty and lyrics are by Irshad Kamil. The romantic number Shaayraana is sung by Arijit singh and is a beautiful number. Tu Hi Toh Hai is a surely Kunal Ganjawala’s comeback song and brings a pep to the album. The clubbing number Blame the night is really catchy. Overall all the whole album is good.
Why to watch: The film is worth a worth for Akshay’s action sequences from a chase sequence in Mumbai streets while rush hour traffic to the fight sequences. Secondly the best thing is that they have not mentioned Pakistan rather Sarhad and dushmans are mentioned. The screenplay is tight and the story line is quite gripping.
Why to miss: If you are a Sonakshi fan than you can easily give it a miss because she has been wasted in the movie and if you are not into action films than you can easily give it a miss. Also the movie is a bit too long close to three hours. Some parts could have easily been edited.
Special Mention: A mention about Akshay’s action sequences in the movie and Govinda’s guest appearance.
Rating: 3/5
