Despatch

There was a lot of buzz bout the film due to one of the most fabulous bollywood actor manoj bajpayee. I too was really excited for the movie. Initially when movie started I thought plot is great storyline must be even amazing even in the last 20 minutes of movie I thought maybe something will happen but it never. Absolutely waste of time, for someone like me who watches movie for story it wasn't upto the mark for which people need to see the movie. Effort was put in acting and directing but what can anybody do when the characters are not making any point. I wasn't able to connect with the movie even once.

Anwar Says: The film was marked as thriller but you are hardly thrilled. Tension is found only on the face of Manoj Bajpayee , not in the movie. It took eight years to get released, this Kanu Behl directorial debut, containing all the ingredients for investigating journalism but your wait doesn't end till the film is over. The role, though tailor made for Manoj , but he should reconsider the decision to carry the movie alone.

The supporting cast did well, particularly the females in the life of Manoj. His frustration of a disturbed married life, hardly get solace with a much younger girlfriend and the occasional fling with co-journalist Noorie, ably played by Rii Sen. So many angles were put in like 2G spectrum scam, shell companies , D-Company and hardly finds any breakthrough.

On the whole, I had lot of expectations after watching Behl's TITLI and AGRA , when Manoj is in the lead but was disappointed. 4 out of 10 from me.

The movie fails to engage with the storyline, and I don't understand why Manoj Bajpayee was made to deliver his dialogues so slowly as if he had some kind of speech problem. I was very excited about this film, but honestly, I had to look up the scam it was based on to better understand it. In a nutshell, if you're not familiar with this scam, you won't be able to grasp the movie fully.

If you are a Manoj Bajpayee fan and expecting something similar to Family Man, Aiyaari, Silence, 100 etc. Then you will be disappointed. Very slow. Unnecessary vulgar scenes. When the story and presentation does not have spice, making vulgar scenes will never. In Short, Bakwaas. 3/10 is a higher star rating for this. Too many characters possibly trying make reality in movie. Sometimes, as an audience one may start thinking which character is the story referring to and feel just lost. I am a great fan of Manoj Bajpayee and have seen many of his top quality movies or series. This one is even worse than Bhaiyaji. I think Manoj Bajpayee is almost in the end of his era of lead roles. Manoj sir. You have an image in public mind. Please don't destroy it.

Well I watched today this movie, it's because of Manoj Vajapeye who is my favorite actor. Movie revealed the black truth of IPL MATCH. It's biggest scam of India in which all politicians, actors, celebrities, businessman involved. The fun part is knowing this fact producer made this film. Knowing that film stars and bollywood involved in IPL we Indians watch such movie, wherein who all are involved in it symbolically disclosed but till today no names are leaked 😳 this is SECRET OF OUR BIG CRIMINALS. Manoj rocks as usual. Film dragged to 2.30 minutes actually it would have been 1.30 minutes. Added some spicy masala in it. Bit boring and below average. Overall it's go 3 out of 10.
