The movie is not always well-lit and the near-dusky frames mirror the somber nature of the subject. It's not a screwball comedy about gangsters like what the posters may tell you. It is a movie that's always tethered to its dark side but like I've alluded to before, one that chooses to play itself out like a 'comedy of manners.' There is the same primitive force of the very early Martin Scorsese -- we are talking here specifically about the Who's That Knocking at my Door? Scorsese -- with the intensity being replaced by a sense of rhapsody.
As far as performance is concerned, the ensemble cast sincerely tries to keep you entertained with their histrionics. However, their strained efforts seem theatrical and wasted. This is evident throughout the film and especially in the shootout scene between the police and the gangsters during the forcefully stretched climax scene.

Zeishan Qadri's directorial debut centres on six small town boys with big aspirations. They are rebels without a cause. They are wannabe gangsters who shoot but don't kill. A few are fools in love. They all want to get rich without working too hard. But what makes the good-for-nothing fellows fun in Qadri's eyes is that they don't want to accomplish so only through illegitimate means. It makes them partly amusing and largely annoying.
The female actors here have little to do other than look pretty and stand smiling next to their bae. Lest you forget the film is set in Meerut, UP, we hear women being referred to as "laundiya" and "Russian salad". Even the sole remotely interesting female character, Mansi (Bharucha), who is Gagan's girlfriend and stands up to the guys, is forsaken to focus on the so-called gangsters. The six leading actors are treated equally but it is Ahlawat as Nikhil the self-appointed leader of the gang, Dahiya as Amit, who especially enjoys embarrassing his friends, and Sarna's blond-haired Sanjay who is desperate to get married, that stand out with their performances.
