If you are fan of Nawazuddin Siddiqui or even Anurag Kashyap, however he had nothing to do with the film but still it quite matches the ambience of films like Gangs of Wasseypur.

Review: Babumoshai Bandookbaaz
The comic is moreover dark and heart-throbbing here as like dark comedy or black comedy genre primarily to see. However, the film is perfectly balanced between the dark humour as well as thrilling action without losing the grip on the story. The rural, intimate and raw romance in-between Nawaz and Bidita is must see along with all the similar plot of blood, betrayal and revenge.

• Why to not Watch

If you are not in love with particular Nawazuddin Siddiqui or sort of such raw action films with all rural like U.P based dialogues or even do not enjoy Anurag Kashyap films, this film may not interest you. However, the film is compelling with story, performance and twists which is even not quite explored or teased in the trailers. Second half of the film is bit of dragging as compared to the first, though later with approaching climax it again catch up with twists and turns.
