Pippa, the brand-new Amazon Prime Video original film about the 1971 war, might come across as a conflict drama on the surface, but on a deeper level, this story is about familial dynamics. It is the tale of three siblings of the same family who each end up serving in the war in their own way. Radha Mehta’s brothers in the movie’s timeline served in the Indian Army, and so did her father until he passed away. This film managed to introduce the coming-of-age element for not just Captain Balram but Radha as well.

Actress Mrunal Thakur has delved deep into the world of cryptic language to bring authenticity to her role in streaming film ‘Pippa’, where she portrays a medical student who gets recruited to specialise in cryptography, adept at utilising this unique form of communication in defense operations.

Pippa is the brand-new Amazon Prime original, which trudges around the genres of war and coming-of-age drama. There is a lot of realism in the narrative, even though the screenplay had issues when it came to certain aspects of character development. Pippa is also about sibling dynamics amidst the East Pakistan war. This article will take the readers through what led to the war and how these siblings found their way back to each other.
Spoilers Ahead
Prologue
Pippa begins with Captain Balram Mehta’s voiceover narrating the history of East Pakistan, which involved constant conflict with West Pakistan over the question of language and lack of recognition for the Bengali population. This constant tussle between the two parts of the same country occurred mainly because of the geographical divide as well. It also caused widespread political upheaval, which forced the West Pakistani army to intervene.

Plenty of war films made in the Hindi language always cater to the jingoistic narrative. Most of them would include a plot that involves sheer hatred for a certain neighboring nation. Though the enmity between the two nations was at its peak during all the major wars, the filmmakers approached this subject matter by emphasizing nationalistic tropes and refusing to dial down the noise. They also do not focus enough on screenplay, direction, or other technical aspects.
Raazi, Border, Shershaah, Lakshya, and Uri: The Surgical Strike are a handful of films that did justice to war drama as a genre. Pippa belongs to the same category as well. This period war drama directed by Raja Krishna Menon was released straight on Amazon Prime Video on November 10, 2023, and is based on the book The Burning Chaffees: A Soldier’s First-Hand Account of the 1971 War by Brigadier Balram Singh Mehta.

Had Brigadier Balram Singh Mehta not written his book, ‘The Burning Chaffees’, on the urging of his battalion mates, the Battle of Garibpur in the run-up to the 1971 India-Pakistan War, would have been forgotten forever.
But the book inspired Raja Krishna Menon, previously in the news for the Akshay Kumar-starrer ‘Airlife’, to make the war film ‘Pippa’ with Ishaan ‘The Suitable Boy’ Khattar playing the war hero (and author of the book), then a 26-year-old who was made a Captain in the thick of the battle after his commanding officer died within three minutes of it.
The film is a compelling retelling of this tank battle, which was fought in present-day Bangladesh, against Pakistani fire power with Lt-General A.A.K. Niazi, who eventually signed the surrender documents for a defeated Pakistan.
