Thuppaki was a hit in South, but I am afraid its Hindi version wouldn't be acceptable in Bollywood. It isn't that the flick doesn't have a good plot. The sleeper cells were never discussed in movies and we welcome Murugadoss' idea but disappointingly it doesn't take off well. There are numerous loose threads like why the soldier off duty takes the pain to solve the mystery by himself and mostly treats it like a game.
The terror attacks aren't deadly and the innocent people dying don't instill sorrow in your heart. The investigation by Akshay doesn't really look viable. And if you ask about any masala element in this flick, I would say there are plenty of them unnecessarily. While Sonakshi's pop-up moments in every twenty minutes disturbs the flow, Sumeet Raghavan, as a helpless sub inspector provides more unauthentic moments in the flick.
