Kill Movie Review: India’s Most Brutal Action Film Yet?



Director: Nikhil Nagesh Bhat
Starring: Lakshya, Raghav Juyal, Tanya Maniktala
Genre: Action, Thriller
Release Year: 2024
Rating: ★★★★☆ (4/5)



🚆 The Plot

Kill unfolds almost entirely on a speeding train — but this isn’t your average journey. When Indian army commando Amrit (played by Lakshya) boards the train to stop a kidnapping, all hell breaks loose. What follows is two hours of heart-pounding, hand-to-hand combat as he takes on a ruthless gang of bandits led by Raghav Juyal in a chilling villainous turn.


🩸 Raw, Relentless Action

If you thought Bollywood couldn’t do brutal action like Korea or Hollywood — think again. Kill doesn’t hold back. The fights are gritty, graphic, and grounded. No flying kicks or cheesy hero poses — just real, painful chaos.

The movie was even picked by Lionsgate for a U.S. release — and it earned a standing ovation at the Toronto International Film Festival (TIFF)!


🎭 Performances

  • Lakshya makes a power-packed debut — intense, physical, and completely convincing as a soldier on a mission.
  • Raghav Juyal stuns in a dark, psychotic role — a huge leap from his dance background.
  • Tanya Maniktala provides emotional balance as the woman caught in the crossfire.


🎬 Direction & Style

Director Nikhil Nagesh Bhat crafts a tight, claustrophobic thriller that never lets up. The pacing is sharp, the violence is stylized yet impactful, and the cinematography inside the train compartments adds to the suffocating tension.


🎯 Verdict

Kill is not for the faint-hearted, but it is a **must-watch for action lovers**. It marks a new era of Indian cinema — bold, bloody, and built for global audiences. This could be India's Train to Busan meets The Raid.




Behind Celeb Rating: ★★★★☆ (4/5)

Catch it in theaters or on streaming — but buckle up, because Kill doesn’t stop till the last punch is thrown.
