Creative Quotient:
Pokkiri, the Tamil original, penned by Poori Jagannath, was a a runaway hit – and it will be hardly surprising if the Hindi adaptation follows suit. Race writer Shiraz Ahmed adapts the story very well. Radhe (Salman), a hitman, changes sides and partners as per his convenience and conviction. “Maine ek baar commitment kar diya to main apni bhi nahi sunta” is his motto. He roams around freely without any fear with his set of friends-cum-henchmen. He runs into Janhavi (Ayesha), a pretty call-centre worker and as the lecherous police inspector Talpade (Mahesh Manjrekar) devises ways and means to captivate Jahnavi, uncannily Radhe rescues her every time and eventually the two end up getting romantically involved.
