Film review: Dhokha round D corner #sanjuzzreviews #DhokhaRoundDCorner #rmadhwan #AparshaktiKhurana

Wow .. It is really raining suspense thrillers this weekend!!

Dhokha round D corner is a movie filled with a lot of twists and turns. The action starts from the word go with Aparshakti Khurana, a terrorist on the run from the police taking a housewife Khushali Kumar hostage. She is unfortunately delusional with a personality disorder. Is the terrorist actually the bad guy here or is it the lady. There are various versions of the story told from the perspective of each character, but only one of them is true.

This is Aparshakti Khurana's film all the way. His character of the terrorist has many shades to it and hats off to him for getting everything bang on. R Madhavan as the lady's husband is okay but he is reduced to playing second fiddle to Aparshakti. His role could've been played by any other actor. Darshan Kumar as the police officer and Khushali Kumar have performed decently.

This is a fast paced movie with a lot happening in a very short duration. Add to that the story moves back and forth in time with a lot of flashbacks shown to define the back story of each character. However as it is a short film with a runtime of 2hrs 2 mins it also ends up leaving some questions unanswered. Some scope of improvement for the makers.

All in all a decent one-time watch !! A notch lower than "Chup: Revenge of the Artist" .

Worth a dekho nevertheless, either in theatres or on Netflix when it streams eventually.

3/5 from me .. Adios 🙂!!
