New Delhi: The latest film from the stable of director AR Murugadoss of 'Ghajini' fame, 'Holiday: A Soldier Is Never Off Duty' stars Akshay Kumar and Sonakshi Sinha in the leading roles.
A remake of the 2012 Tamil film 'Thuppakki', starring Vijay and Kajal Agarwal, the film revolves around Virat, an Intelligence officer, and his fight to bring down a terrorist sleeper cell in Mumbai.
At a mammoth 2 hours and 51 minutes, the film is definitely on the longer side. Will that time be enough for Akshay 'Virat' Kumar to penetrate the sleeper cell activities? What about his lady love? Prajakta Hebbar of IBNLive Movies was in the theatres, waiting to find out.
