Although Total Dhamaal opened to mostly negative reviews  which falters repeatedly due to an “exasperating script”, its box office numbers tell a different story. A positive word of mouth is also working in the film’s favour, according to trade anaysts. Total Dhamaal is the second film in the Dhamaal franchise, and brings together Dixit and Kapoor after a long gap.
