A bad storyline and Unnecessary adult scenes

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.
