Synopsis

DHAMAKA is the story of a prime time reporter getting the biggest scoop of his career. The story is unique and one of its kind. Puneet Sharma and Ram Madhvani's screenplay is impressive and ensures that audiences remain glued to their seats. Puneet Sharma and Ram Madhvani's dialogues are sharp and acidic. Ram Madhvani's direction is gripping. DHAMAKA scores when it comes to performances. Kartik Aaryan is known for comic and light-hearted roles but here; he steps into altogether new territory and comes out with flying colours. Mrunal Thakur’s role is credited as a special appearance and she does very well. Amruta Subhash leaves a tremendous mark and adds a lot to the drama in the film. Soham Majumdar has a limited appearance but his voice plays an important role and overall, he does a fine job.  DHAMAKA, ideally, should have been a song-less fare but the three songs are neatly woven into the narrative. Manu Anand's cinematography is a bit shaky but that adds to the tension. Nidhi Rungta's production design is authentic. Manohar Verma's action is realistic. Theia Tekchandaney's costumes (associate costume designing by Ayushi Jain) are non-glamorous as per the film’s requirement. Futureworks Media Ltd and RedChillies.VFX's VFX could have been better. Monisha R Baldawa's editing (co-editing by Amit Karia) is slick and fast-paced but slows down a bit in later portions. On the whole, DHAMAKA is an edge-of-the-seat thriller and boasts of one of the finest performances by Kartik Aaryan. But sadly, the film loses steam in the second half.
