Nana Patekar is shockingly awful in Taxi No. 9211. He’s over-the-top, he’s hammy, he’s… I’m sorry, I can’t do this. But the man, of late, has been delivering one knockout performance after another, and I’m running out of gushy things to write about him. But I’ll say this much. He’s so magnificent here – just watch him when, rotting in jail, he wryly recalls his thumbs-up star forecast for the day – that John Abraham, playing off him, actually comes up with a counter-performance. For the first time, John isn’t just a clotheshorse; he’s a man whose life is spiralling scarily out of control.
B.Rangan has great things to say about Taxi No. 9211.

“Nana Patekar is shockingly awful in Taxi No. 9211″
Anyone would disagree with that. He’s probably at his best, even better is the way he plays the character in its entirety.
