Ajay Devgnis back in an all-in-one avatar as an actor, producer as well as a director! This time he has developed his home production movie titled “跑道34”。主演自己是Skyline Airway Company的上尉Vikrant KhannaRakul Preet Singhas First Officer Tanya Albuquerque, the film takes off at theaters all across India on April 29, 2022.

Captain Vikrant was all set to depart from Dubai airport to pursue his journey along with 150 passengers on board to Kochi in India. He along with First Officer Tanya took off from Dubai. But when they reached Kochi, they encountered heavy air turbulence due to bad weather.

Captain Vikrant had an adamant attitude and he didn’t listen to Tanya’s advice to divert the plane from Kochi to Bangalore. Instead, he chose his own way and diverted the plane to Trivandrum airport where they got caught up in a cyclonic storm! Captain Vikrant realized his mistake and in zero visibility he took a huge risk and successfully landed the plane just a few meters short of a crash. He had even made a Mayday call moments before landing which he was required to make long before when he was facing zero visibility in mid-air.

Due to the erroneous pilot decisions made inside the cockpit, which endangered the lives of 150 passengers on board, Vikrant and Tanya had to face the wrath of the investigation and interrogation conducted by advocate Narayan Vedant (Amitabh Bachchan). The narrative moves away from the cockpit and evolves into a locked-door courtroom drama. Whether Vikrant and Tanya would come out clean and justify their decisions during their trial forms the crux of the story.

跑道34（（2022) Official Trailer:

好：

A Crisp Screenplay

剧本跑道34由Sandeep Kewlani和Aamil Khan撰写，因为它没有涉及任何缓慢的时刻，因此很清脆。剧本中最好的部分是，诸如Vikrant Khanna上尉（Ajay Devgn），倡导者Narayan Vedant（Amitabh Bachchan）和急诊官Tanya Albuquerque（Rakul Preet Singh）等中心人物都集中在2个小时的整个运行期间，并集中30分钟。然而，这部激动人心的航空戏剧中有很多角色。过分重视这些角色，因为它可能破坏了电影的流程。Dharmendra Sharma进行的精确编辑也完好无损。

Some of the insignificant characters of the passengers shown inside the plane aroused my interest. For instance, the flight’s passengers comprised an ailing senior citizen, an irate businessman, a crying baby, a middle-aged man who prefers free drinks on board, and even a popular YouTuber named Ajey Nagar who looked strikingly stupid showing his wide eyes and teeth to other fellow passengers and his tongue was sticking out of his mouth every now and then! These characters of the flight passengers added to the thrill of the drama while the plane faced stormy turbulence and ended up in an emergency situation.

跑道34当一位在飞机上的150名乘客中的一位老太太死于心脏病发作时，人们也具有情感的本质，这可能是由于盲人着陆期间造成的紧张局势。

Spectacular Cinematography

The visuals of跑道34简直令人着迷。这部视觉上沉浸的航空戏剧涉及尖端视觉效果和CGI的智能利用，这使场景看起来很现实。从跑道上的飞机税开始，它的起飞到围绕着旋风风暴陷入困境。一切看起来都很惊人。着陆场景看起来如此真实，以至于我几乎忘记了我实际上正在看电影！在现场，维克兰特上尉冒险，使盲目和奇迹般的着陆距离灾难性的撞车事故仅几米。我的称赞是对这项电影杰作的Aseem Bajaj。

Fascinating Performances By The Lead Cast

Ajay Devgnwith his hard-hitting dialogues and cool attitude in the shoes of Captain Vikrant did have a strong impact on the audience. Also, Devgn andRakul Preet Singhhave on-screen chemistry to watch out for! The duo shares a professional relationship in Runway 34 where Rakul Preet plays First Officer Tanya beside Devgn who plays Captain Vikrant. Captain Vikrant is shown turning a deaf ear to her suggestions to land the plane at Bangalore airport when they were caught up in the storm at Kochi. He refuses to listen to her and takes the plane to Trivandrum instead for a landing where they get caught up by the storm even more severely than before. However, together they successfully pulled the plane out of danger by finally making a risky landing with scenes filled with a gamut of emotions. I must say, the duo did rock the plane as well as the show throughout the first duration.

As跑道34是Devgn的创意以及独一主义的人，他可能知道，对面的最好的女明星就是Rakul Preet！屏幕上的二人组在2019年电影中受到欢迎。De De Pyaar De”。这可能使Devgn Select Rakul Preet成为这部电影的主角。

Ajay Devgn取得了演员只能梦想的目标！

If you would like to try your luck in the film industry, what would you desire to be; an actor who enthralls the audience with his performance, a director whose work receives praises from the audience, or a producer who owns a film? Well,Ajay Devgn这三个是跑道34！他仅制作并导演了这部电影，并且是首席演员本人。

Being a veteran actor inBollywood, Devgn has ruled the action genre for decades. His charisma, style, killer expressions, and unbelievable action stunts have fascinated the audiences since the 90s. Now by showing his caliber as a director and producer alongside being an actor in跑道34, Devgn has proved himself to be an all-rounder in the Bollywood industry.

The Bad:

Inspired By Hollywood Movies

Even if the screenplay is good, the story is not! I mean, if you have seen movies like飞行（（2012)或者玷污（（2016), this will be nothing new to you. Reports say that跑道34是基于一个真实的事件2015喷气Airw哪里ays’ Doha to Kochi flight had a narrow escape while facing visibility issues due to bad weather at Kochi airport. The pilots had to risk the lives of 150 passengers on board and make a blind landing on the runway without actually seeing it. The story of Runway 34 is the same but after watching it I can see a lot of resemblance to “飞行“ 和 ”玷污”。

我会告诉你电影制作过程中实际发生了什么。Devgn可能召集了两个最聪明的作家Bollywood（Sandeep Kewlani和Aamil Khan）让他们观看“飞行”和“ Sully”。之后，他们可能被告知要根据这两部电影设计一个脚本，他们做到了。最终结果是您在跑道34”, where the plot is actually a mix of the 2015 true incident as well as “Flight” and “Sully”.

The Thrill Builds But Ends Up In A Stodgy Courtroom Drama

跑道34has several captivating instances in its first half and was successful in building up a lot of thrill and excitement among the audience. However, the first half ends abruptly as the plane makes a risky landing. The second half of the film develops into a courtroom drama where Captain Vikrant was questioned for the abrupt and illogical decisions he made at 35,000 feet above the ground which endangered the lives of 150 passengers on board the plane. The investigation of Captain Vikrant and his co-pilot Tanya was carried out by advocate Narayan Vedant who interrogated them on the decisions they carried out during the flight.

During the courtroom investigation, it was revealed that Captain Vikrant was all drunk and wasted the night before the flight and perhaps the hangover got the most out of him! The court investigated whether he was dangerously drunk to be not considered fit for flying a plane. Also, Captain Vikrant didn’t listen to First Officer Tanya’s suggestion to divert the plane to Bangalore during the storm and instead chose his own alternate destination. And just moments before the landing, he had given a Mayday call to the air traffic control tower which should have been given by him long before! These were some questionable offenses of Vikrant which were investigated during his closed-door aviation trial. Vikrant was also shown smoking several times while flying a plane which is absolutely illogical! Wait, isn’t smoking supposed to be prohibited inside a plane? So, how come as a captain of a flight he smokes?!

法庭内部的场景全部加剧了紧张局势，维克兰特（Vikrant）的每个上升问题。但是我觉得他们拖了这部分太长了。法庭审判消耗了大部分叙事，但未能就为什么维克兰特上尉在空气湍流期间不遵守他的第一任官员的建议。封闭的小径突然结束了，某些调查和证据表明，维克兰特上尉是“英雄”，他拯救了这一天，而不是醉酒，过于自信和顽固的传单。

Amitabh Bachchan，原始的“愤怒的年轻人”Bollywood，即将到80岁。他曾经以对话交付和隆隆的声音而闻名。但是随着年龄的增长，他的声音失去了隆隆声。在与维克兰特上尉的审讯场景中，他的隆隆声有时看起来更像是喃喃自语。我必须说，在审讯场景中，对他来说，奇怪的极端特写相机对他来说看起来很苛刻，他即将年80岁，看起来也是如此！

伊朗的博曼played the role of Skyline Airway company’s aggressive and selfish owner Nishant Suri, who doesn’t care about anything except his own profits. He carried out his role diligently but his short role didn’t provide him too much space to prove his talent. Aakanksha Singh as Captain Vikrant’s wife Samaira too carried out her role proficiently. However, her role was short as well which didn’t give her much scope for an intriguing performance.

判决：

情节有队长Vikrant求救信号to the air traffic control tower just moments before the landing which he should have done long before upon sensing danger. Perhaps this is the reason why the original title of the film was decided as “Mayday”. However, just before the film’s shooting was wrapped up, Devgn decided to change its name to “跑道34”。

跑道34is based on true events and it really does showcase one of the scariest and near-disastrous mishaps in India’s aviation history. The first half of Runway 34 does portray a potentially fair-minded in-flight human error. I must say that the storyline and screenplay of Runway 34 are edgy, fast-paced, and engaging enough and will instill loads of thrills and suspense during the first half. However, you will experience that thrill fading away if you happen to be a Hollywood movie buff like me and are used to watching all types of Hollywood films that show such feasible air disasters quite often.

At times the savior does become the culprit! You must be familiar with the ending scene of the movie, “黑暗骑士”，当专员詹姆斯·戈登（James Gordon）向他的儿子讲述了蝙蝠侠时，他将哈维·登特（Harvey Dent）的罪行归咎于自己。当戈登的儿子问他为什么蝙蝠侠没有做错任何事情时，为什么蝙蝠侠逃跑了。他告诉儿子：“因为他是哥谭的英雄，但现在不需要的人。因此，我们会狩猎他，因为他可以接受。因为他不是我们的英雄。他是一个沉默的监护人；警惕的保护者；黑暗骑士”。维克兰特上尉也被标记为罪魁祸首，最终导致了他的调查和审讯。但是，与蝙蝠侠不同，人们确实将他视为“英雄”。

总体, I must say that跑道34could have been a runaway success if it had been solely inspired by true events rather than by building up a spiced-up storyline that involves instances inspired by other films. Such issues take a deep dig at the film’s originality and claim that it has been “inspired by true events”.

跑道34is basically a one-time watch movie. You won’t find that same excitement to watch this movie repeatedly because of the familiarity of its plot. I would suggest that you choose to watch this movie in theaters rather than on an online streaming platform. In theaters, you will get that ultimate cinematic experience with amazing visuals lining up as Captain Vikrant takes the flight to its destiny.
