Special Chabbis is an unfair joke on the audience. If it were not for some witty dialogue delivered with great timing, Special Chabbis would've been a very frustrating experience.

In the pool of fools, the director emerges as the smartest but fails to deliver an uncompromised film.

The film moves fast; it's one event after another, and it holds your interest right uphill the very end. Pandey directs well; with this film he proves that "A Wednesday" wasn't just a flash in the pan. The film has some great music.

Overall a great film. I enjoyed it very much. Do go see it!

Neeraj Pandey impressed one-and-all with his gripping direction and storytelling in the 2008 film, 'A Wednesday', which starred Anupam Kher and Nasseruddin Shah. That film worked because of many reasons – a tight gripping screenplay, an impeccable script, flawless performances, crisp editing (100 minutes), no ‘stereotyping’ (in fact, the movie itself was somehow based on ‘anti-stereotyping’), no ‘Bollywood’ gimmick such as item numbers among many more. This one, ‘Special 26’, somehow goes back to the same school of filmmaking, which is more about gumption than gimmick! Based on true incidents, this Akshay Kumar-Anupam Kher-Manoj Bajpayee-Jimmy Sheirgill-Divya Dutt starrer is about the curious case of the fake CBI raids, which were conducted in the 1980s.
