REVIEW: Lahore

SOFT KICKS

You watch with a certain amount of disbelief that the film, Lahore, does not help you suspend. If the film were to be believed, then kickboxing is a major sport, the political relations between India and Pakistan depend on it, the media headlines it, a sports minister spends an inordinate amount of time on it,  players treat tournaments like battles, fans take out processions when an ‘incident’ happens and throngs collect for the funeral of a player.
