War Chhod Na Yaar is a Bollywood war-comedy movie released in 2013. The movie stars Sharman Joshi, Soha Ali Khan, and Jaaved Jaaferi in lead roles. Directed by Faraz Haider, War Chhod Na Yaar is a satirical take on the serious issue of the India-Pakistan border conflict. The story revolves around Captain Rajveer Singh (Sharman Joshi) and his Pakistani counterpart Colonel Qureshi (Jaaved Jaaferi). Both are stationed on the Indo-Pak border and are responsible for monitoring and maintaining peace at the border. The movie explores the humorous antics of both the Indian and Pakistani soldiers in their attempts to outsmart each other while also dealing with the harsh realities of war.

Captain Rajveer is a witty and fun-loving soldier who loves to play pranks on his fellow soldiers. He is also a wise leader who is respected by all his men. Colonel Qureshi, on the other hand, is a stern and serious officer who is always on duty. He is portrayed as a by-the-books soldier who maintains discipline and orders his men accordingly. The two soldiers share a mutual respect for each other despite being from rival nations.

The Pakistani and Indian army are shown placing bets on who will violate the ceasefire first. This leads to a competition between the two sides to see who will outsmart the other. Amid this competition, some soldiers on both sides are shown questioning the point of fighting and risking their lives for a conflict that doesn't seem to have any end.

The movie also explores the issue of media representation in times of war. Soha Ali Khan plays the role of Ruth Dutta, a war correspondent who is keen on covering the border conflict. She is shown covering the war from both sides and trying to portray the situation as neutrally as possible. However, even she is not spared from the biases and prejudices of the media industry, which is shown to sensationalize the news and push their narratives.

The movie does a great job of addressing some serious issues while also providing much-needed comic relief. The satire is not limited to the war, but also extends to the political leaders who are shown as less interested in solving the issue and more interested in keeping their own positions of power.

The music of the movie is composed by Aslam Keyi and Gurbani Bhatia. The soundtrack includes songs like "Main Jaagun Aksar" and "Khwabon Si Jo".

Overall, War Chhod Na Yaar is a must-watch movie that beautifully blends comedy and satire with the serious issue of border conflict. The performances of Sharman Joshi, Soha Ali Khan, and Jaaved Jaaferi are commendable, and the direction by Faraz Haider is top-notch. The movie leaves a long-lasting impression on the viewer and makes them question the futility of war.

War Chhod Na Yaar is a 2013 comedy with a runtime of 1 hour and 53 minutes. It has received moderate reviews from critics and viewers, who have given it an IMDb score of 5.4.
