A Fairly Engaging Crime Drama That Keeps You Pinned Till The End.

Kabadadaari is a finely crafted crime drama that keeps the clock ticking despite the flaws. The film has a racy and good first half, followed by a second half that walks along with some lags.

An engaging plot & a racy screenplay, make Kabadadhaari an entertaining watch!
