"#Raid works for two major reasons: Watertight screenwriting + sharp performances [Ajay Devgn and Saurabh Shukla are brilliant]… The face-off between the two is the USP... Ileana is decent... Amongst the supporting cast, actor portraying Saurabh Shukla’s mother is tremendous...#Aamir and #NoOneKilledJessica director Raj Kumar Gupta delivers a solid film... #Raid is his best work to date... Also, the dialogue-baazi is sure to be greeted with whistles and claps... Word of mouth will help the biz grow. #OneWordReview... #Raid: SUPERB. Rating:- This nail-biting thriller is smart, engaging, gripping and entertaining... Go for it! (sic)."

We have seen Ajay playing a tough cop in Rohit Shetty’s Singham but in Raid, he plays an IT officer who is out on a mission to uncover the corrupt. It is good to see Ajay back in a role that displays his toughness.
Directed by Raj Kumar Gupta, Raid has been jointly produced by Bhushan Kumar, Krishan Kumar, Kumar Mangat Pathak and Abhishek Pathak.
Set in the backdrop of India in the 1980s, the film is based on one of the most high profile raids the country has ever seen.
It showcases the bravery and courage of a fearless Income Tax officer who is put on a mission to confront a very powerful man addressed as Tauji in Lucknow.
