Review : Film opens in 1999 where you see this womens in their 60s hatching a scheme to be able to go to a shooting championship without alerting their husbands.This sets the tone for the entire film which is essentially a cat and mouse game of schemes and the fear of getting caught executing them.
Using Chandro and Prakasi Tomar story sand ki ankh owns to make a larger point about the patriarchal society we are grown up in and the fact that women literally have to take up arms to get away it.The film drives home the point of women empowerment, celebrates the bonhomie among women wholeheartedly, and attempts at every point to hit the bull’s eye.
It is an amazing story of Prakasi and Chandro Tomar. They are the oldest sharp shooters wining several gold medals over the years. Seema Tomar ( daughter of Prakasi Tomar)  is an Indian Trap shooter. She is the only Indian woman to win shotgun Silver Medal at the International Shooting Sport Federation World Cup.

Trivia : Neena Gupta and Soni Razdan had objected that much younger actress were cast to play older roles.Whereas they belonging to that age were not considered.
