Look back at Xpose: Himesh Reshammiya film was exposed ahead of its time

India Today  

In an era where over-the-top action, gratuitous gore, and larger-than-life heroes dominate the big screen, Himesh Reshammiya has done the unthinkable—he’s given us 'Badass Ravi Kumar'. Badass Ravi Kumar might proudly declare logic as optional, but 'Xposé' took sly jabs at Bollywood’s inner workings. From heroines being expected to ‘expose’ rather than dance or act, to South Indian audiences torching a film over a single unfavourable line about their idols—some things never change. And given Badass Ravi Kumar’s unexpected warm reception, dare we say it’s time for a grand Xposé re-release?
