In "A Gentleman: Sundar, Susheel, Risky" (2017), mild-mannered engineer Gaurav Chanpura travels from Miami to Mumbai for a job interview, only to be mistaken for his thrill-seeking doppelganger Rishi, a suave operative entangled in a high-stakes corporate espionage racket run by the ruthless gangster Sunny. As Gaurav's ordinary life collides with Rishi's chaotic world of double-crosses, adrenaline-fueled chases, and seductive spies, he must impersonate his alter ego to survive, woo the enigmatic Kavya, and unravel a web of deceit involving hidden identities and billion-dollar secrets. Directed by the duo Raj & DK, this stylish action-comedy fuses mistaken-identity hijinks, slick stunts, and rom-com banter with satirical nods to corporate greed and the allure of danger, delivering a breezy, twisty ride that's equal parts fun and forgettable.
