A man secretly blackmails his wife and her lover when he discovers the affair.

Anupama Chopra

Film Companion

Abhinay Deo clearly has a keen eye for the darkness and absurdity of daily life but Blackmail isn't sparkling enough to sustain interest.

Rated: 2.5/5

The rest of the pack is irritating; I am finding it difficult to pick up who was the worst--the stupid boss or the obnoxious office colleague.

Blackmail isn't exactly a zippy thriller that rattles along at an even pace, but owing to the quality of the pivotal performance from Irrfan, luminous as ever, it is persistently riveting.

Rated: 2.5/5

Irrfan khan's blackmail taps something very accurate about the monsters that reside in all of us -- a part that we're happy to deny. All that the film needed, was to be a bit more brutal in the assessment of its evil lead.

Film Companion

It's a pity Blackmail doesn't capitalize on its details. On a technical level, Deo exhibits the eye of a proficient ad filmmaker...little moments don't quite add up, but they do place this film near the top of the burgeoning well-made-average-movie pile.

Rated: 2/5

Kirti Kulhari is handicapped by limited writing, but still embodies a certain vulnerability through her performance.

One of the most refreshing movies of all time. Irrfan khan, of course takes the cake with his acting, but there is never a dull moment in the movie. Brilliant script, direction, editing, sub-par acting except Irrfan Khan, Divya Dutta amd Gajraj Rao

The movie is a comedy only in name with the fun parts being few and far in between, also they were repetitive in manner. Did have crazy laughs seeing the after office hrs bawdy activities of Irrfan Khan, the naughty acts he pulls off were hilarious, but that itself can't save a movie which lacks a good plot and lackluster ending.
