‘War Chhod Na Yaar’ has a unique concept. It not only projects the thorny issue in light vein, but also makes a comical comment on the politicians of both sides as well as the Chinese and American interference. There's a lot of tongue in cheek humor and over the top amusement to drive home a message. Clearly, the director intends to say a big 'No' to warfare or hostility, but while the intentions are right and most honorable, what comes across on screen looks like a half-hearted, amateurish attempt. It highlights the relationship between Indian and Pakistani soldiers. The story takes a turn when war breaks out. If we talk about the performance then, Sharman Joshi and Jaaved Jaaferi are a delight to watch on screen. Sharman proves that he's one of the most sincere performers around, while Jaaved proves that he's truly a versatile actor.  While the first half portrays the friendship between soldiers of India and Pakistan, with some wonderful moments that engage you, the post-interval portions depict a precarious situation: What happens when war breaks out and the soldiers are pitted against each other? It's in this half that the film falters. On the whole, this flick is an interesting idea, coupled with noble intentions, but is treated amateurishly.
