Satrangee Parachute Review

Satrangee Parachute
Reviewed by Sab Khan

Unlike its colourful name, Satrangee Parachute is a very depressing children’s film. After watching the movie, I was thoroughly depressed by the fact that film makers have completely run out of impressive ideas to appeal to the younger audience. Unlike Hollywood movies like Wall E, Madagascar or Narnia, Satrangee Parachute was not even close to the being smart, clever and impulsive. Kids’ entertainment needs a major revamp in this industry.

Satrangee Parachute is about a bunch of boys from Nainital who travel to Mumbai from, in search of an amazing parachute for a blind girl. But when they reach Mumbai, the scenario is entirely different. The innocent boys are completely unaware of the darker sides of life and soon get stuck amongst gangsters and terrorists who plan on exploiting the kids.

There are some points to be noted hidden between the lines of the script but I think the genre was inadequate for the portrayal of such a grim idea. Being a children’s flick, it should be lighter, but it was far from being even funny, neither for the kids nor for adults.

I wouldn’t suggest any parent out there to let their kids watch the movie with the notion that it is a “kiddo type”. Avoiding the movie would be a better option.

Rating: 1/5
