Lucky Baskhar
Review
In 1992 a CBI officer(Sai Kumar) calls Baskhar(Dulquer Salmaan), Assistant General Manager of Magadha Bank for an enquiry. He finds that Baskhar has amassed a wealth of 100 crores in his bank account with in a span of one and a half years. How?
Baskhar, An Honest middle class bank employee who expects a promotion for his sincerity and dedication gets disappointed as the promotion goes to an other man in the same bank based on caste partiality and bribe. Frustrated with the economic situation of his Family, Baskhar turns crooked and starts to earn money.
Rest of the film is about How Baskhar amassed wealth through cash adjustment entries from Vault where he made profits through an illegal business with a businessman called Antony(Ramki), his promotion as an Assistant General manager, Hawala, his profits in stock market through Harshadh Mehra who did stock market rigging, Rigging the Lottery results after buying lottery tickets for converting black money to white money and earning commission for Bank Receipts from Arshad Mehra through Suraj who invested BR money in stock market.
Lucky Baskhar addresses about Fake Bank Receipts scam. When a serious scam arises where the Bank Heads try to make Baskhar as a Scapegoat, how he manages to escape from the situation is Lucky Baskhar.
Lucky Baskhar addresses that even CBI officers could be corrupt...

(Middle-class mentality, sir, that’s just how we are. We scrape by penny by penny, but if someone tries to show off, we can spend it all in a single go...
My name is Baskhar Kumar. My salary is 6000 rupees. There was only one line in my hand, that of poverty. Yet, Sumathi held my hand and walked with me—my strength, my wife.
If you have money, you have respect and love—all of it.
Is it wrong to go to any lengths for family?
Buy whatever you want, from head to toe. I’ve earned that much.
Gambling has its own nature. It doesn’t matter how well you play. knowing when to stop is the most important thing.
Since when did you become so arrogant?
I’m not arrogant, I’m dignified.
I never thought you’d become a bad person.
I’m not bad...I’m just rich.
The thrill of money is greater than that of cigarettes, alcohol, or drugs.
This is India... you need to show money to buy things. But to buy respect, you need to show the power of money)
Dialogues are written well...
A setwork for Bank...A set work for Home and the surrounding area that reflects Bombay...A setwork for Jewellery shop...Production Design/Set works were impressive
Background score of G.V. Prakash Kumar is Impressive.
Naveen Nooli Editing is impressive.
Nimish Ravi's Cinematography is Impressive.
Ramki, Sarvadaman D. Banerjee, Sachin Khedekar, Sai Kumar, Tinnu Anand, Sivannarayana Naripeddi, Sudha, Raghu Babu, Rajkumar Kasi Reddy, Mathew Varghese, Maganti Srikanth, Manik Reddy, Master Rithvik and others...Apart from Dulquer Salmaan and Meenakshi Chaudhary, all other characters have been sketched and utilised well.
Tamil dubbing is good...It was effective and impactful.
Minus: Lucky Baskhar is Quite similar to Scam 1992 webseries and The Big Bull movie... However, Director differentiates the above mentioned by focusing the plot on a bank employee rather than focusing the plot on a stock broker who manipulated stock market.
Overall, interesting screenplay by Director Venky Atluri!!! Dulquer Salmaan Rocks the show!!!
