There hasn't been a thriller so ripe from Bollywood in a long time that entertains quite as well as Johnny Gaddaar. Inspired by novels of James Hadley Chase and movies of Vijay Anand, Shriram Raghavan (Ek Haseena Thi) directs this well... Full review

Now this is something hits unexpectedly. Johnny Gaddar quite thoughtfully titled like 70's hard-boiled thriller spins a devious plot and pulls off a fantastic thriller. This is one of those relentless movies just refuses to slow down. Having said that is... Full review

His performance is an interesting mix of vulnerability and meanness, which leaves the cinemagoers wondering if he is the hero or the villain of Sriram Raghavan's film Johnny Gaddar . Here he presents five heroes, four of whom are no prisoners of image, and the fifth - good old Dharmendra who is trying to reinvent himself. ... Full Review
