Kangana shines, script falters
Kangana Ranaut, as we all know is one of the amazing actresses in the Indian Entertainment Industry, and she has proved her mettle an umpteen numbers of times in the past through movies like “Queen”.

But, the script fails miserably, so as the narration. Director Hansal Mehta literally failed to create any sorts of impacts on the minds of the audiences, and at times, on scenes which do not feature Kangana, audiences will get a feel of boredom for sure.
The basic thread of this film has all the potential to get itself molded as an action thriller, but Hansal Mehta tried to make it a comic drama, and this attempt failed poorly.
