It is not often that a Indian military film gets everything right.
From the Kirans to the Oorials and their MiG-21s, to the Vijayantas and the 25 pounders, Vijeta has them all.
I will not repeat what the other reviewers have said but I endorse them all.
A magnificent film, it tells the coming of age story extremely well while never once falling into the trap of trying to be all things to all people.
If you think a Hindi film is all about singing and dancing and choreography, Vijeta will provide you with a new perspective.
An excellent story, well acted and with a strong message, Vijeta is a real classic that deserves to be better known.
Even though made in 1982, it puts the later movie Border to shame and is better made than the pretty decent Lakshya.
