Raid Bollywood Full Movie

[Madox Valdivia]

Raidis a 2018 Indian Hindi-language crime film directed by Raj Kumar Gupta. It stars Ajay Devgn, Saurabh Shukla and Ileana D'Cruz.[3] The film is based on the real life income-tax raid conducted by the officers of Income Tax Department on Sardar Inder Singh in the 1980s, which distinguished itself from others for being the longest raid in Indian history.[4][5]

The film focuses on an IRS officer Amay Patnaik, who has just been transferred[10] to Lucknow as Deputy Commissioner of Income Tax, where he lives happily with his wife Malini. One day, he receives an anonymous tip about black money hoarded by (Member of Parliament) Rameshwar Singh, the don of Sitagarh, who had evaded income tax for a long time. So, Amay and his team, after much planning, head to Sitagarh. There he and his team face opposition from Rameshwar's very hostile family, but he holds up to his ideals and integrity. He searches every nook and cranny of the house with his team to find the black money without any success. After a few hours of searching, when all hope seems lost, he receives an anonymous letter, along with a map, revealing the location of the money in the house. Amay and his team break down the walls, ceilings, staircases and old storerooms (with the help of the map) to find assets worth crores (tens of millions).[11] MP Rameshwar, not willing to accept defeat, goads Amay into letting him leave the house.

He then meets the Chief Minister of Uttar Pradesh, who refuses any help as the Income Tax department is under the control of the Central Government and the raid is legal. The Central Finance Minister is persuaded to call Amay, but is promptly rebuffed. A relentless Rameshwar meets several MPs, politicians, senior officers and even the Prime Minister Of India, but to no avail. He then rallies his political support and threatens to topple the state cabinet unless the Prime Minister agrees to meet him. As the raid continues for a 3rd consecutive night, the PM and Rameshwar meet. The PM calls Amay and asks him to look for other legal options; Amay agrees to comply, as long as she furnishes a signed order through fax ordering Amay and his team to stop the raid, effectively negating the request. The PM realizes that a written order pressurizing the IRS Officer to stop the raid may reach the media and the Government may be brought into disrepute. She refuses to help and sends Rameshwar away. Frustrated, Rameshwar upon exhausting his political options, tries the tack of attacking Amay's wife Malini, who narrowly escapes. On hearing this, Amay becomes furious but decides to control his anger.

Finally, on the 4th day, at noon, Rameshwar sends his henchmen to kill Amay and his team. A long battle ensues and a nearly defeated Amay is saved in the nick of time by a special police force sent in by the PM. Rameshwar is arrested and before being led away in handcuffs, he asks Amay about the identity of his informer. Amay refuses to divulge that information. It revealed that Rameshwar's youngest daughter-in-law was the informer; she and her lover wanted revenge on Rameshwar for forcing her to marry his impotent son as part of a political deal. Rameshwar is seen wondering about the informer's identity in prison while Amay gets transferred to another city, with hopes of a brighter future.

The Income Tax department on Wednesday surveyed at least six properties in Mumbai and Lucknow linked to actor Sonu Sood. Although it was not termed as a raid, it was reportedly in connection with an alleged tax evasion probe. The survey comes after the AAP government in Delhi chose Sood as the face for its mentorship initiative. Delhi CM Arvind Kejriwal had taken to his Twitter handle to extend support for the Bollywood actor.

The Income Tax Department conducted multiple raids on properties related to Taapsee Pannu, a talent agency and producer Madhu Mantena and filmmakers Anurag Kashyap and Vikas Bahl over alleged tax evasion earlier this year. According to reports, the IT department was searching for properties of Anurag and actor Taapsee in close to 20 locations in Mumbai and Pune.

Along with Katrina Kaif, houses and properties of Priyanka Chopra were also raided by the Income Tax department at the same time in 2011. If reports are to be believed, the authorities found details of hidden income worth Rs 6 crore from Priyanka and other possessions worth Rs 1.5 crore from her father, Dr Ashok Chopra, and her assistant, Chand Mishra, who was also scrutinised by the investigating agency. Their bank account details and financial records, among other documents, were thoroughly checked by them.
