Why Cheat India Movie Review

Emraan Hashmi's latest venture, Why Cheat India which was Cheat India earlier is a dull film with a strong message.

Story: Why Cheat India is based on several real-life incidents in India from news reports about the excessive exam-cheating across India. The film gives us Rakesh  (Emraan Hashmi), an education-Mafia who preys upon the insecurities of students under pressure and makes exam centers his happy hunting ground. It is also here that he finds his young recruits that are the foundation of an impressive evil empire. Also, the film aims to showcase India’s entrepreneurial reality at the ground level.

Performance: Emraan Hashmi appears to be stifling a yawn. Apparently based on a real conman, the film travels the country to show us students diligent. Emraan is the only one who makes this film bearable even for once otherwise the film would have fell flat.

Editing and Direction: Writing is flat throughout the film and so does the direction which could not keep up with the pace even if the director would have wanted to do it. The screenplay attempts to go in many directions and ends up going it goes nowhere. While trying to make the film something of a commercial potboiler and satire, Why Cheat India falls between the two stools it tries to stand upon.

To Conclude, Why Cheat India is a film with a good message and some great relevations which could have made nicely and well-rehearsed but this one, falls flat on face. It's just a one time watch only if you have nothing to watch else than this. For me, it's 2.5/5.
