‘Ghanchakkar’ is a nail-biting thrilling comedy and the stellar performances of the film’s cast. Rajkumar Gupta’s, ‘Ghanchakkar’ is valiant effort to alter the comic dimensions of Bollywood. Refraining from rugged humor, the film is packed judiciously with laughs and wit, along with stellar performances from a straight faced Emraan Hashmi and an overtly outlandish Vidya Balan. Rajkumar Gupta who has previously made films like No One Killed Jessica and Aamir is known for his clever thinking. It is when the audiences don’t suffer from a single dull moment. Unfortunately ‘Ghanchakkar’ cannot boast of that. The script despite a refreshing angle lacks the thunderous value of thrillers. Yet, the most pivotal plus is that the story’s treatment that is rare. The lows here are the pace and how the writer drawing from a few interesting characters cannot maintain the momentum of his story. In the second half, the film gets repetitive and with the number of false alarms increasing, a brooding sense of tediousness will slip in. Emraan Hashmi, as the lazy husband who loves his TV more than his biwi is perfect. All in all, the flick is  both compelling and challenging. Boldly making a unique film that refuses to garnish out readymade thriller, expect this one to jolt your gray matter.  This film isn’t for you if you like Bollywood thrillers that keep dropping hints and finally bead it up to formulate a drastically dramatic culmination!
