The Indian Army is often associated in the film industry with patriotism. However, the recently released Tamil movie, ‘Amaran’ had more to offer than that. The bond between Sivakarthikeyan and Sai Pallavi in Amaran added layers to Major Mukund Vradarajan’s character.
While this movie is gaining love due to the overall portrayal of Major Mukund’s life, another part of the movie gaining recognition is the love story and the chemistry between the actors. However, this is not the first time that the film industry tried to attempt romance like this.
So, if brave soldiers turning soft in love is your genre, then watch these movies on OTT that will make you feel butterflies and sorrow at the same time!
When it comes to period romantic dramas starring army officers that have an emotional depth, nothing can beat Sita Ramam. The movie’s charm is in the sheer simplicity of its lead – Ram.
Lieutenant Ram is an orphaned army officer serving at the Kashmir border. He falls in love with an anonymous person named Sita Mahalakshmi. The awestruck chemistry between these will make you fall in love with Ram’s character.
