When was the last time you saw a female-led bollywood heist movie? Not able to think of any? Our study indicates that this is because it's an unexplored genre. Into this lesser-known area, Overseas, Oceans Eight, Thelma & Louise, Hustlers, Widow, and Mad Money ventured and established a precedent. Finally, back home, we have Crew, a heist comedy starring Tabu, Kriti Sanon, and kareena kapoor Khan. Undoubtedly, it is a novel and genre-defining work, but does it merit a place in this elite group? The likelihood is low.
 
Geeta remains with her devoted and encouraging husband Arun, who operates a cloud kitchen, following his brother's separation from his family. jasmine hopes to become a wealthy CEO of her own business one day and now resides with her maternal grandfather. She is sarcastic, street savvy, and unafraid to violate morality to advance in her life. divya excelled academically and has a lifelong ambition to become a pilot. However, by happenstance, she works as an air hostess. To spare her parents from suffering a broken heart, she has, nevertheless, falsely claimed to be a pilot.
 
Professionally speaking, the airline firm they work for is going through a difficult period of bankruptcy, and for the past six months, the trio and their peers have not received their wages. Because Geeta, Jasmine, and divya are always searching for a better life, they are enticed to take the gold slabs from their employer when he unexpectedly passes away on the Airbus.
 
They quickly find out that he and HR chief Mittal would smuggle gold into dubai to make money. After considerable deliberation, they choose to begin working for Mittal in the hopes of escaping their substandard existence in terms of money. However, as fate would have it, sub-inspector Mala discovers that something is off, and chaos ensues.

It is said that Crew is a comedic heist. It contains a lot of exciting robbery sequences, but very little comedy in them. Most jokes are not funny. By the time you get to the second half, you're already lost in boredom and hoping for a miracle to occur to turn the plot around. We regret to inform you that nothing of the such occurs. Here, even actors with excellent comic timing like diljit dosanjh and Kapil Sharma, who have made a name for themselves, are squandered. Even with Tabu's Geeta's humorous one-liners and use of regional lingo, you can't help but giggle now and again. Sadly, the music is likewise unmemorable.
 
Nevertheless, Crew is a fascinating movie to watch. Tabu, Kareena, and Kriti are quite stunning, and the costume department deserves praise for that! We should all give thanks to the women who worked on the movie's production: co-writer nidhi Mehra, co-producers rhea kapoor and Ektaa R Kapoor. Although Crew celebrates sisterhood and presents women as bold, unapologetic individuals, femininity is never exploited as a means to make heavy pronouncements about contemporary feminism. The main characters are not unlikable despite their flaws and relatability.

Kareena is the one who takes the story to a new level. Her portrayal of jasmine is exquisite, and the role fits her well. Nobody could have looked as good as Jasmine. She is bold, determined, fearless, and unafraid to compromise her morals to further her interests. She gives the narrative some much-needed luster, and it is a delight to see her perform. She captures your heart by making her long-awaited comeback to a dazzling position. She is the embodiment of flair and substance, and the fact is that without her fierce charisma and occasional appearances in Sona Kitna Sona Hai, Crew would never have taken off.

It's possible that the crew did not arrive at its intended location.   Still, it's a fantastic attempt at being generic.
