Despite Irrfan Khan's illness and inability to promote the film, Blackmail opened to good box-office numbers and is going steady at the cinemas…
Even despite the huge attraction of the IPL opening
ceremony, last evening, audiences manage to throng theatres on Day 2 to watch
Irrfan's immaculate performance in this dark comedy.

Taran's tweet read, "#Blackमेल witnessed 37.01% GROWTH on Day 2... Biz was

Sat 3.85 cr. Total: ₹ 6.66 cr. India biz. (sic)."
Meanwhile, Blackmail has got a thumbs up from the critics. SpotboyE editor Vickey Lalwani gave the film a four-star rating. In his review he wrote, "It has Irrfan Khan whose every scene brought a lump in the throat. This man MUST recover and come back from London at any cost. Are you up there, your Highness? Stellar performance, his nonchalant manner of saying things, and at times not saying anything but yet saying it all continues in his inimitable style--- and in fact, is the spine of this Delhi Belly director Abhinay Deo's black comedy."
Irrfan Khan In Blackmail
Blackmail will need to have a terrific Sunday collection
to come up with a chunky total for the first weekend.
