But the way before them was very hard and the British government was against them. Can they fulfill their dream? In his Guru's absence who helped them most in their attempt? What were the difficulties faced by them? For an unexpected climax you please watch the film. The movie received mexed reviews more than that of positive ones. The attempt to make such a movie based on the life of Shivakar Bapuji was appreciable. The amalgamation of a love story into the film makes it more attractive and fast moving. We can see some beautiful songs connected with the scenes. But all these were not enough to make a hit. The performance of Mithun Chakraborty is appreciated but others are not up to the standered. The dancer and her alignment with songs makes the audience boring sometimes and it produce a negative effect in the mind of the viewers. Moreover the team failed to recreate the 1800's back ground in many situations and it actually became a love story film rather a historical story of making an aroplane.
