The presentation of the film is questionable but watch the film for its story and Randeep Hooda!




You may look forward to:

• Randeep Hooda is a curious choice to play 'Charles Shobhraj' and very interestingly he does an incredible job at it. He looks hot, smart and very close to the real 'Charles'. His accent is pretty much put up, but he pulls the role with great aplomb! 'Charles' is known to be a Bikini killer, innumerous escapades with women, ever stylish, learned person with notable skills of convincing people. He is as charming as much dangerous. This film belongs to Randeep Hooda!
• Adil Hussain is the next important role in the film, this guy is a good actor, the movie talks a lot about his personal traits as well apart from the legal aspects! He is good to watch :)
• Richa Chadda and Alexx O'Nell, are the two very important supports in the story of 'Charles', in the portion of his life which is captured in this movie. I never liked the weird accent of Richa Chadda, nevertheless both of them do a pretty good job
• Rest of the cast have minor roles, to which they cater well
• This film is all about style. The various filmy dons and criminals you come across seem decorated, to which we generally don't relate, but the story of 'Charles' is am sure very much a dream for every other man barring the end he meets. The second half of the film specially is engaging and an open ending to it prompts you to go google the actual truth about the real guy!

What you can sleep over:

Randeep Hooda's put up accent and Richa Chaddha's natural accent :P




The dampeners you should be aware of:

The first half of the film fails to engage the audience. The direction of the film is not very impressive and it shows up in its first half which is a let down. With Randeep Hooda's put up accent, half the dialogues are unclear, teamed up with slow pace and not many incidents, you are very likely to not last until interval. Although the film catches up a lot in its second half which is in fact the part that earns the film its final rating!
