The legendary "Thieves Market" is the Mecca of Bollywood collecting. Hidden behind stacks of rusted Royal Enfields and broken gramophones, you can find original lobby cards of Pakeezah or a broken harmonium used in a Mehboob Khan film. Pro tip: Don't ask for "new" stuff. Walk slowly, talk to the old shopkeepers about "old is gold."
The first hour is pure dopamine. The heist in Dubai—where a Bugatti drives through the Burj Al Arab—is visually stunning. Director Kabir Khan understands scale. The introduction of the new villain (played with snarling menace by Vikrant Massey) feels fresh.
Because in Bollywood, the show doesn’t go on just for art’s sake. It goes on for the collection’s sake. And as long as the tickets sell, the entertainment will keep rolling.
