Warning: Spoilers
While the core premise of this movie sounds interesting, the conclusions are problematic. I'll leave the political points aside, I don't sympathize with either side, both, given a certain intensity, are fascist and dangerous in their own senses.

What I really found stupid and nonsensical was the notion at the end that nothing can be changed. Everything that happens, happens - even though that would mean, as someone else pointed out here already, that the bomb attack that leads to the civil war is inevitable, too. Even more puzzling is the fact that her grandfather, given all the info he got now, wouldn't do everything so his granddaughter doesn't turn into a time traveling murderer á la Terminator and, even worse, gets killed at a very young age - by himself!!! How insane is the idea that it is better to kill your own grandchild than face the consequences we humans have brought on ourselves? How does he live for one second after learning that? And given how murderous the combined history of mankind had been I wonder how killing a few right wing crazies would bring peace forever? Or will the Indian time travel police go on and on until there's nothing left to kill off?

BTW, why doesn't that main guy (forgot the name, I mean that narcos guy...) commit suicide, which most definitely would stop the timeline - because we can see at the end (when no bomb exploded) that certain actions indeed change the future. It doesn't make sense at all. Another visually stunning turd from Netflix...
