An fair attempt at some original Indian noir...but falls short.

Well written (it's based on a popular, eponymous novel), but this screen adaptation is rather long drawn out (to the point of being boring at times) and rather pretentious in its approach.

Saif Ali Khan, as always, is a fine actor and Nawaz Siddiqui is quite the scene stealer.

Could have been something much finer in the hands of more capable creators.

I would suggest Paatal Lok as a much better alternative, if you're wondering whether to watch this.
