Duration : 128 Minutes
Genre : Period Crime Thriller
Ajay Devgan : As one knows Ajay is well known for his serious action roles, in Raid he doesn't disappoint, he plays an honest Income Tax officer named Amay Patnaik. He's probably the only actor who could carry out the reel character with so much ease. Ileana D'Cruz : She plays Malini, wife of the income tax officer, despite of being a newer generation artist, she gave out a decent performance. Saurabh Shukla : He who enacts "Tauji" is great as an antagonist. Pushpa Joshi who plays Ammaji gives a good touch of humor.
Story : The script is inspired by the Income Tax raids which were conducted by the Indian Revenue Services back in the 1980s. The direction and editing is firm and the plot is refreshing. One gets to learn so much about the Indian taxation and raid system back then.
Music : Tracks by Amit Trivedi and Tanishk Bagchi could be considered average and were not much required in the story line, however the remake of Sanu Ik Pal sung by Rahat Fateh Ali Khan is melodious.
Overall RAID is a unique genre out of a box which is definitely worth to be on a watch list.
