Although the film garnered overwhelmingly negative reviews from critics, who claimed it falters repeatedly due to an “exasperating script”, it has been able to impress family audiences. Total Dhamaal follows a group of conmen who constantly try to outwit one another to secure their loot. Directed by Indra Kumar, the film opened in theaters on 22 February. Total Dhamaal brings actors Madhuri and Anil together after a gap of over a decade.
