Mission Majnu is a thriller movie directed by Shantanu Bagchi starring Sidharth Malhotra, Rashmika Mandanna and Parmeet Sethi. It is written by Parveez Sheikh, Aseem Arora and Sumit Batheja. You can watch it on Netflix from January 20.
Mission Majnu is a Bollywood film for those first time viewers with its songs, sentimental characters and colorful, rhythmic vision in an action thriller.
This movie is in its original Hindi, so you need to take that into account.
Spies, intrigue, thriller and melodrama in this production with a political backdrop.
About the Movie Mission Majnu
We warn you: this movie promises more action in the tráiler than which it delivers later in the movie. However, it is entertaining… it uses a plot and treatment that is more or less lightweight at the beginning and transforms it into a more “serious” movie of political intrigue that gradually morphs into drama and even melodrama.

The love story between Kashmir and Bollywood began way back in 1949 when Raj Kapoor shot parts of his film ‘Barsaat’ in the Valley, taking its beauty to a wider audience. Ever since, the Kashmir Valley became the focus area of many film producers.
