This story has more twists and turns than a second-rate soap opera.

Very good comedy and actors have done a great job.. but didnt understand the point of blood and killing your associates ! we could have had blackmail without that aspect also.

I always feel Abhinay Dev is the Guy Richie(Snatch,Lock Stock 2 Smokin Barrels) of India...This film is also crime dark comedy like his previous brilliant Delhi Belly... The music by Amit Trivedi is just right for the right situations in the movie.The plot slowly unfolds keeping you engrossed with interesting characters...Its a pity that such movies are so underrated and don't do well at the boxoffice...instead mindless action packed movies of Salman and similar A listers get record breaking collections..Wonder when the Indian public will improve their taste for better movies like this one...

This was unexpected. I went in the hall with low expectations, having literally no idea of what the film was going to be about. I had no idea of what I was in for. Boy, did I enjoy every bit of the roller-coaster ride! On the surface, it looks to be simple - a man finds his wife is cheating on him, he plans to blackmail on his wife's boyfriend to pay off his bills. That's where it gets complicated. What follows is an impressive accounts lesson, money changing hands as frequently as nymphomaniacs changing clothes, and shades of grey revealed in every character. Friendship, love, jobs, loyalty - everything bows their head to the almighty rupee (or dollar, depending on where you are from). The music is impressive. The soundtrack is among Amit Trivedi's top five, easily. The acting is, for lack of a better word, amazing. Irrfan Khan steals the show. Smaller actors could have easily collapsed under the weight that the film demanded from the lead role, but boy, he does not disappoint. Other actors (Arunoday Singh, Kirti Kulhari, Divya Dutta, Omi Vaidya, et al.) also make handle their roles with grace, but your eyes will never stray from Irrfan. One word of caution, though - this is full of dark humor, not dark comedy - don't go into the film expecting laughs and giggles.
