Directed by Hansal Mehta and starring Kangana Ranaut, Simran is apparently based on the life of the supremely interesting Bombshell Bandit aka Sandeep Kaur, a Punjabi woman who got into the murky world of bank robbery to pay off gambling debts.
In the film, Kangana plays a Gujju housekeeping girl who is settled in the US, but there's a twist—she's a kleptomaniac, a gambler, an alcoholic, a divorcee, and amidst all of this, highly ambitious. With such diverse personality traits to explore, this seems like a role that is right up Kangana's alley. But the question is, will the actress leave an impact on the viewers with her performance? And will Mehta be able to convince us with the depiction of an Indian immigrant in the US? Maanvi Kumar of Team Bollyy is at the First Day First Show to give you a low down of what you can expect.

And it starts! #KanganaRanaut owns the screen before she even utters a word. That's #Simran for you.

#KanganaRanaut as the Gujju housekeeping girl Praful Patel is extremely convincing and constantly brings a smile to your face. #Simran

A very apt depiction of the Indian parent-child relationship by @mehtahansal . No matter where you r in the world, it's the same. #Simran

So far, the background score complements the mood of the film pretty well. #Simran

When you win $2000 at your first game in the casino, you're bound to get addicted. We feel you Praful Patel! #Simran @mehtahansal

Divorced at 30 and getting addicted to gambling! What kind of a woman does that? We know! #KanganaRanaut as Praful Patel ;) #Simran

Dialogues are stealing the show! "When you're a good girl u have A boyfriend, when you're a bad girl u have many." #KanganaRanaut #Simran

Oh the highs and lows! This film has us on the edge of our seats so far. #KanganaRanaut #Simran

30 min into the film, we're in love with Praful Patel aka #KanganaRanaut & her ability to emote over a 100 emotions in one frame. #Simran

@mehtahansal has captured the essence of the awkward arranged marriage set up aptly. #Simran #KanganaRanaut
— Bollyy (@Bollyydotcom) September 15, 2017
@mehtahansal makes us root for #KanganaRanaut despite her flaws. And that brings us to the end of an entertaining 1st half. #Simran
— Bollyy (@Bollyydotcom) September 15, 2017
The second half begins and right of the bat it looks slightly unconvincing. Will the film still deliver? Let's find out #Simran

We love how the background score complements the mood of the film. #Simran #KanganaRanaut

Wow! Did we just get a #DDLJ reference? "Jaa Simran Jaa, Jee Le Apni Zindagi" has such a different connotation here. #KanganaRanaut #Simran
— Bollyy (@Bollyydotcom) September 15, 2017
The film's plot seems to suffer a little bit in the second half, but it still keeps you hooked. #Simran #KanganaRanaut @mehtahansal
— Bollyy (@Bollyydotcom) September 15, 2017
The plot is beginning to get on our nerves. Things falling apart way too soon and there are twists after twists. #Simran #KanganaRanaut
— Bollyy (@Bollyydotcom) September 15, 2017
#KanganaRanaut lacks her charm in the second half. She makes a fool of herself while trying to play the robber. Too over the top. #Simran
— Bollyy (@Bollyydotcom) September 15, 2017
The 2nd half may have been a little cold but what a perfect ending! We were laughing our asses off! #Simran #KanganaRanaut @mehtahansal
