Vodka Diaries is not a great suspense drama  when compared with theHitchcockian  tradition  . God knows, the genre has not been  much explored in Bollywood. Still in its infancy the whodunit gets a rather likable shake-up on this occasion . Vodka Diaries  stays true to  the path of  deception and betrayal that the suspense genre adapts and makes some sharp swings into  the unexpected towards the end.

Do stay for the end credits to hear Rekha Bhardwaj and Ustad Rashid Khan crooning “Sakhi ri”. It’s a sobering send-off to a suspenseful and original journey.
