Kunal Kemmu and Zoa Morani starrer Bhaag Johnny falls tragically short of being the zany, fast-paced and gritty thriller it aspires to be.
Directed by Shivam Nair, Bhaag Johnny opens with Kemmu’s titular character being blackmailed by his cougar boss Ramona( Manasi Scott) into killing a girl he’s never met in his life.
While he sits in his hotel room in Pattaya, struggling to choose between going to jail for insider trading or killing to save his skin, Johnny comes face to face with his genie, apparently appointed by the spiritual guru Johnny’s mum prays to asking for his only son to be protected.
