    good movie

    I dont know why the movie got flopped. its better than emraan hashmi usual movies. he gives quite good performance in this movie. the concept is good and well treated. i dont know why such a good movie got flopped. it deserves to be atleast average or hit. anyway its a nice movie. enjoy for the good performances and entertainment.

    Subject of movie is very good

    Movie is good and idea to bring cheating scandles in admissions and job (like SSC) openly is fantastic.

    Emraan Hashmi is amazing as always

    Nice direction but BGM could have been better. Emraan Hashmi acting is amazing. Story portrayed is average. Dialogues are low. One time Watch!

    Touches the bar of Bhatt camp muvis but with weak music.

    The movie puts light on one of the ways of how students get into elite institutes by illegal means.

    The movie offers more than that in trailer. It sets a plot that goes different from what one predicts.

    The Bhatt camp is known for movies involving love story, an anti entity accompanied by great music. It is successful formula in earning up to multiple times of movie budget.

    This movie however is inspired from real incidences and inclines more towards reality. Music is good not as good as other movies belonging to respective camp. Overall touches the bar of movies from Bhatt camp.

    Final Verdict: It is an average business, decide yourself if to watch or not.
