The film is an incoherent mess

Teen Patti  is the kind of film that makes you want to send everyone associated with it for a urine test so you can confirm whether they had drugs in their system while making this senseless movie. For two hours and twenty minutes I sat in stunned silence as thefilm unfolded, desperately trying to figure out how and why something like this was made.

Teen Patti  has so many things wrong with it that a review threatens to become a list. Let me start with the most obvious: The film's trailers have already revealed its likeness to the Kevin Spacey-starrer "21", but the makers of Teen Patti  don't even have the skills to plagiarize competently.

In "21", a greedy university professor and his students figure out how to count cards and make a killing at Vegas casinos. In Teen Patti , a well-meaning professor is coerced and subsequently blackmailed into gambling for money.
