Rating: 

Omung Kumar has a solid plot in 'Sarbjit'. This biopic, unlike the earlier one he made on Mary Kom, is not of the triumphant survival saga of an underdog. This is a story of Sarabjit Singh, a farmer, who, on a fateful night, is said to have just wandered off across the border in drunken stupor, never to return home as he gets caught by the Pakistani cops, tortured and kept in jail for 22 years. It is a story of helplessness, of despair and of an unending struggle for Sarabjit's feisty sister, Dalbir Kaur. It is the story of a simple farmer's family veering between despair and hope for more than two decades, as they struggle to prove Sarabjit's innocence and get him back home.
