Varun Dhawan's Badlapur is the kind of film that leaves you feeling extremely confused. You want so much to love it and yet it insists on constantly letting you down. Badlapur opens on a promising note with an extended long shot of two men robbing a bank while Misha (Yami Gautam) is busy buying vegetables with her son beside her. The robbers somehow end up having to hijack Misha’s car leading to a bloody and violent chase at the end of which Misha and her son are dead. One of the robbers, Harman (Vinay Pathak) escape with the loot while Layak (Nawazuddin Siddiqui) surrenders himself. We are then introduced to Misha's husband Raghu (Varun Dhawan) whose world has turned upside down in one single day. He swears revenge, thereby beginning a 15 year long journey to avenge the death of his wife and son.
