Feels like a rerun of Vishesh Films’ <i >Jannat</i>. Much too insipid. Cliches abound.

Cliches abound. The clingy, whiny Indian wife, who seems to have no life of her own, is the proverbial good woman, while a fair foreigner fits neatly in the straitjacket of the seductress. Some fairytale mumbo-jumbo is tossed in—how the young couple lives in a Hansel and Gretel-like dream house, unaware that there is a witch inside sullying the peace. There’s a sudden twist in the climax, more childish and sloppy than thrilling. By then, you don’t care anyway. Bright spot: Kunal Kemmu shows sincerity and effort, but Blood Money is much too insipid for him to register a strong impact.
