'Blackmail' a brilliant screenplay: Big B (Movie Snippets)

Megastar Amitabh Bachchan is impressed by the creativity in Irrfan Khan-starrer "Blackmail".

"Saw a delightful film today 'Blackmail'. Brilliant screenplay, unique story, exemplary performances and great presentation and editing. Actors excel from Irrfan Khan to some fresh new faces. So happy to see such creativity," Big B tweeted late on Saturday.

The film depicts life of a middle-aged married-man stuck in a full day-time job and unexciting life but things turn after he finds that his wife is having an extramarital affair.

In March, Irrfan revealed that he is facing a rare disease neuro-endocrine tumour, for which he is getting treated abroad.

Directed by Abhinay Deo, "Blackmail" also features Kirti Kulhari, Divya Dutta, Arunoday Singh, Omi Vaidya, Anuja Sathe, Pradhuman Singh Mall and Gajraj Rao. The black comedy drama film will release on April 6.
