Why Cheat India movie review: Flat jokes, poor script

In his review of movie Why Cheat India, film critic Raja Sen scores the film starring Emraan Hashmi on different yardsticks to arrive at a rating for the much anticipated multi-starrer.

Hashmi appears to be stifling a yawn, Raja says. Apparently based on a real conman, the film travels the country to show us students diligent and debauched, but never finds momentum, says Raja Sen.

Raja Sen says the script is flat, the actors are fine, especially some wonderfully unfamiliar old men, but the film doesn't use them right. Raja says he wish debutant Shreya Dhanwanthary — so entertaining in the web-series Ladies Room — was given more to do than make smitten eyes.
