Tubelight (2017)
Tubelight is streaming in the UAE on Netflix.
The verdict
Tubelight has landed badly with viewers, and the numbers back that up. It carries a 5.3/10 on TMDB across 103 ratings — under the line most people draw. It clocks in at a standard 136 minutes. In the UAE you can stream it on Netflix.
Should you spend 2h 16m on it?
2h 16m of Hindi drama with a war streak. A little over the usual, so start it earlier than you think.

Story
Laxman Singh Bisht is nicknamed tube light by his neighbours because he is feeble-minded. Despite being special, Laxman lives by one life-lesson; keep your faith alive and you can do almost anything, even stop a war.
