Raqeeb -- Rivals in love is a suspense thriller that does its job and holds your interest until the penultimate scenes. Raqeeb is not a novel story and borrows heavily from the 1979 telefilm, Murder by Natural Causes. Plus, we've seen many films about double and triple-crossing back home too, like Ketan Mehta's Aar Ya Paar or Abbas-Mastan's Baazigar. But despite a common storyline, Raqeeb works largely due to a gripping screenplay peppered with exciting twists and turns that takes the audience by the hand, and leads them in unpredictable directions.
