Cigarette Ki Tarah Movie Reviews

Cigarette Ki Tarah is an unintelligent thriller which looks like a wannabe Bhatt camp film. It's inspired by Jism and Kalyug, just that this one's painfully silly. Nikhil Dabur from Kanpur ( Bhoop Yaduvanshi) loves to hate his alcohol-addicted father and ogle at skimpily clad girls. In spite of his bad jokes, loud wannabe personality, beer addiction and lecherous gaze, he has a good friend in the form of Kanishka ( Yuvika Chaudhary)

There should have been statutory warning at the start of this film, just like they have on cigarette packets and which is now mandatory before the screening of every film in a theatre. CIGARETTE KI TARAH, a debut film for Bhoop Yaduvanshi, and I guess a debut for its director Harjeet Virk as well, is one of those films that makes you wonder why so much money was invested in something that is a disaster from scene one.

At the press screening of this half-heartedly created music video, which tries to convince itself that it is an actual film, the producer abruptly emerged from his seat during the interval and declared, "I give this film four out of five stars." Another member of the team chose to go all jingoistic even though the film doesn't even remotely tread the patriotic path and chanted, "Jai Hind! Jai Hind! Jai Hind!" to some sporadic applause
