Detective Sherdil

I hoped that Diljit Dosanjh's natural likability and comic timing would make Detective Sherdil an entertaining watch especially if the core mystery is well conceptualized. Unfortunately Diljit's character comes across as a bit of an arrogant know it all detective with fake accent. The overall mystery is not bad but the movie ends up with more than required twists and turns and some plot holes which would not have mattered if we would have either got the fun loving Diljit of Good Newwz and Crew or even the serious Diljit of Jogi and Chamkila.

The production value of the movie looks good but the direction and execution feels a bit Amateurish. Even well established actors like Ratna Pathak Shah and Boman Irani feel a bit wooden at times in their delivery. I think that the usually likable Diljit could have lifted this decent murder mystery based on his pure charm but his character was not well created, hence for me this is a missed opportunity. It is not a poor movie but just a very average. I would recommend skipping it unless you are a big Diljit Dosanjh fan. 5/10.

As a Diljit fan, I had to watch this movie.

The film boasted great performances from Diljit, Boman, and Ratna, their acting truly carried the film. Diljit brought his usual charm to the screen with his light-hearted, witty character, and Boman added his usual flair of brilliance. It was nice to see Chunky Pandey in this movie - he brought 5 minutes of entertainment to the film, but otherwise his role was not needed. Unfortunately, the rest of the actors' performances were average, as their characters just weren't strong enough, a partial fault in direction, I think.

While the story did eventually come together, despite being a bit unrealistic, it wasn't the best storyline and certainly could have been better.

The journey there felt tiresome, the pacing was pretty slow, and some parts were unfortunately predictable.

It's a real shame because with tighter editing and a sharper script, this could have been a much more engaging watch.

After starting the movie i realised what this movie is copied from and only kept watching because of Diljit Dosanjh, as I am a big fan of his work and expected some comedy too but unfortunately I realised this is harf core copy of the famous movie Knives Out staring Daniel Craig with Indian masala, if you know those sequels you wouldn't want to see this movie unless until you're a Diljit fan. If you really want to enjoy a movie with such genre go watch the original Knives out movies, all 3 parts. Ofcourse the first part was the best but other three are also enjoyable. Overall not the worse movie I've seen but I feel it could've been better if they copied the original one ditto!

Nowadays, I watch lot of thriller movies. Enjoyed the thrilled & mystery throughout the movie but lead actor's performance disappointed me. His acting was pathetic for this type of movie. The "Shanti" & "Purvak" character was fine really loved their acting. BGM was poor too.

Still the Story was quite enjoyable no doubt.

Just an amazing film with a classic perfect cast. The movie has done wonders with its pace and story telling. No unnecessary stretch. Just story telling at the place we want. An el nino classic.

Sorry but just had to say this hence repeated the words.
