Blackmail movie is a Comedy of errors with lot of quirkiness and is definitely quite engaging. It has all the ingredients to make it a fun watch. Its story of middle class man and his struggles, monthly EMIs, limited income, sales pressure and a deceitful wife.
Irrfan khan plays the role of a middle Class main in a pitch perfect manner. He is so submissive to every situation in his life that you pity him. He looks so helpless still you never know what next trick he is plotting in his mind. Rest of the cast play their part impeccably.
Dialogues are witty and Comedy is situational .money and the need of it, makes you do crazy things, that’s what it portrays. There is no surprise that most of the henious crimes happen due to normal situations turning outrageous.
Blackmail deserves to be watched for it’s simplicity.
