If revenge is a dish best served cold, this one isn't icy enough.

Nothing is what it seems and there are many turns, but the film isn't as clever as it thinks it is.

3/5

Badla, an official remake of a Spanish murder mystery, pulls off a mostly-gripping whodunit, something Bollywood rarely manages.

Badla is a return to form for the acclaimed director of Kahaani who delivers another arresting mystery thriller involving missing bodies and murder.

Ghosh builds a solid case against the assumption of innocence that we often grant women accused of heinous crimes. If only Badla lived up to its intent.

Badla is a mystery thriller that is being sold as a tense watch, but in all honesty, the suspense is tepid.

A very gripping thriller. Great performances by 2 leads and the atmosphere it develops just sucks you in and doesn't let up until the climax. Only thing did not perfectly is the ending which I can understand that they went for something new but unfortunately it doesn't live up to the film and feels more like an 80s action movie plot. But the film is amazing.

Badla didn't quite work for me despite an impressive performance by Amitabh Bachchan. I am not sure why.. Taapsee wasn't that good here as the critics claim
