Leans Traditional
Primary
The film's central thesis explicitly promotes nationalistic patriotism, military valor, and the defense of the homeland against an external enemy, aligning with conservative ideology.
The movie features a cast representative of its Indian setting, without engaging in explicit race or gender swaps of roles traditionally associated with Western mainstream cinema. Its narrative positively frames the traditional identities of its Indian heroes, focusing on patriotism and wartime bravery rather than critiquing established societal norms.
Secondary
The film features Laxmi Rathod, an Indian spy, who successfully engages in and wins physical combat against multiple male opponents using a knife and hand-to-hand techniques.
The film, being a patriotic Indian war drama, portrays Hinduism as a source of strength, cultural identity, and moral fortitude for the Indian protagonists. Religious symbols, prayers, and cultural practices are depicted respectfully and contribute to the narrative of national resilience.

Their actions, including aggression and violence, are implicitly linked to their national and religious identity, contributing to a portrayal where the religion is associated with the enemy's problematic actions without significant counterbalancing positive depictions of Islam within the film's central narrative.
