The Hindi remake of Nuit Blanche, titled Bloody Daddy, lacks a distinct identity. Despite the deliberate attempt to stylize the plot with vibrant visuals, slow-motion sequences, and a music score filled with riffs, I couldn't fully connect with Shahid's portrayal as a "saviour dad" or the updates they made to the original script in light of COVID. In comparison, Kamal Hassan did a much better job in the Tamil remake, Thoongaa Vanam, which was slightly more nuanced and less exaggerated. Hassan managed to infuse subtlety into the script he wrote while preserving its core elements. The extended fight scene in the kitchen between Hassan and Trisha was particularly impressive.

First and foremost, dear Bollywood filmmaker, if you are making a copy, it is important to acknowledge and give credit to the original filmmaker because creativity does not belong to you. Secondly, the acting in this film is disappointing, especially by every actor, including the child actor. The action scenes lack impact, and if you aim to create a Bollywood version of John Wick, ensure that the actors are capable enough and that the creator has a clear vision. Unfortunately, this film lacks vision and is simply a frame-by-frame copy with subpar acting.

The original film, Sleepless Night, is a far superior option in every aspect. It successfully portrays the desperation and frustration of the protagonist, whereas this Bollywood rendition seems more focused on selling Shahid Kapoor's good looks rather than the film itself. Shahid Kapoor is a talented actor who has already proven his mettle in films like Kaminey and Haider. However, through films like this, dear Shahid, you are wasting not only our time but also your own. Bollywood operates in a capitalistic manner, lacking roots and originality. It's no wonder that South Indian cinema has now surpassed Bollywood in many aspects.
