Action sequences were fine and Kangana does a good job at them. But besides that it's really average. Storyline is very very weak and Kangana never comes across a tough agent something like Jason Bourne she was trying to portray. A Emotionally hollow movie where we don't connect with the lead character at all. Good effort though. If there's a second part then we hope it improves.
Plot summary
Special Agent Agni is tasked to find information and eventually, eliminate Rudraveer, an international human trafficker and a coal mafioso. Things turn personal when Agni discovers a truth that connects her to Rudraveer.

Where's The Story? SMH!
Kanagana & Divya Dutta are stellar but the film is a big bore?
I was super excited about this movie; a film featuring a femme fatale similar to Atomic Blonde, Salt and such. But I have come to understand that having such expectations is only going to disappoint me more. Dhaakad falls short by a lot.
Agent Agni has had a traumatic past. But she has channeled that trauma and anger into becoming one of the most ruthless spies ever. She is tasked to track down a dangerous human trafficker; her toughest challenge till date.
Kangana Ranaut is by far one of the most talented actors we have today. She has portrayed a variety of characters; each different from the next. But none of these have been successful despite the actor receiving praise for her performances. Dhaakad is no different. She is stellar in her first action film. She pulls it off with such panache! The action set pieces are well choreographed albeit a little violent. Arjun Rampal is menacing but his accent is off. Divya Dutta is excellent and so is Saswata Chatterjee.
Dhaakad could have been much better. It could have been our Atomic Blonde or so. But the plot is predictable and plods along for most part. The melodrama and emotional scenes just make it worse. But hats off to Kangana and Divya Dutta; the dhaakad duo of the film!
A wannabe action movie with scenes copied shamelessly from massive Western n Korean movies.
My earlier review which got more than 1000 likes got deleted by the star cast n makers of this movie.
That means some fellas are burning n they cannot digest opinions.
Then again my reviews got deleted multiple times.
This is the list of the movies from which Dhaakad copied: Naked Weapon, Columbiana, The Long Kiss Goodnight, Elektra, Salt, Red Sparrow, Underworld, Atomic Blonde, Mr n Mrs Smith, Kill Bill, Hanna, Gunpowder Milkshake, Sucker Punch, The Protege, Kate, The Old Guard, Anna, Black Widow, Ava, Nikita, Haywire, Point of no Return, Proud Mary, The Villainess, Everly, Kite, Stiletto, Cat Run, Lara Croft, etc.
The lead actress' body in this movie is a proof that she hasn't done weight lifting exercises.
The hand to hand combat looks fake n the worst is the sword fight scene.
The lead actress' chubby cheeks is a proof that she hasn't done any vigorous or intense training.
