Dialogue writer Kapil Sawant who is also the co writer of the film captures the life of the everyday man and the hierarchy of crime and politics through this expertly worded and brilliantly preformed film.


The Good -
Kunal Khemu seems to have been lost in the limelight of supporting roles since Kalyug and Traffic Signal, it is good to see him in a leading role once again where he gets a chance to showcase his capability. Even so with a very relatable performance from Kunal the supporting roles are expertly cast with Rasika Dugal, Vijay Raaz, Gajraj Rao and Ranvir Shorey deserve equal recognition.

All the primary supporting roles are perfect reflective surfaces that allow the every-man Indian lead character to bounce off and elevate the whole experience of a dream that most of us have had once in our lives which is running into a giant bag of cash. The movie tackles the arrival of this absurdly large sum of money in a common man's life in a very smart and restrained way which was appreciated and believable, rather than showing multiple songs in exotic and foreign locations just because.

Special props to Rasika Dugal for in a long while portraying a rendition of a wife without the usual drama of it being too misogynistic or too modern and over the top for the sake of agendas or due to ignorance. She also embodies a strong moral character and a staunch better half for Kunal Khemu to love, respect, argue, worry about and be afraid of without it coming off as cliche.

The humor is en pointe with sharp dialogue writing and amazing comic timing from Kunal in comparison with Comedic geniuses like Ranvir Shorey and Vijay Raaz. Gajraj Rao provides his stellar performance to some of the best written lines in the whole movie delivered with dry wit and underlying motives. Character interaction is some of the best I have seen in recent Bollywood Cinema.

The Bad -
Nothing particularly stands out as bad or disappointing in the movie. Maybe the Length could be taken as a negative but this is purely nit pick territory. If I had to think about a drawback this movie could have very easily been over within 90 - 105 minutes without losing anything that makes the movie good.

Lootcase is the every man dream wrapped in nice layering of great supporting cast, strong character interaction, crafted dialogue and a perfect seasoning of humor and relatability. As an Indian I have been craving for this exact type of an experience and have been unsatisfied on this front for a while now until this gem.
