Raja Natwarlal is a 2014 Indian Hindi crime drama film directed by Kunal Deshmukh and produced by Siddharth Roy Kapur under UTV Motion Pictures. The film features Emraan Hashmi in the title role, alongside Humaima Malick, Paresh Rawal, Kay Kay Menon and Deepak Tijori in a special appearance. The film was released on 29 August 2014 and received mixed reviews from critics.
Raja (Emraan Hashmi) is a small-time conman who cons people for a living along with his partner in crime Raghav (Deepak Tijori). He is in love with a bar girl Ziya (Humaima Malick). Feeling sorry for her, Raja decides he wants to go for a big catch so that he can marry his lady love and she won't have to work in a bar anymore. That's when the trouble starts. Along with Raghav, Raja makes a grand plan to swindle a huge amount of money from two baddies. The plan is successful and Raja decides to celebrate.
This is when Varda Yadav (Kay Kay Menon), a billionaire based in Cape Town, enters. The money actually belonged to him and upon realising it has been stolen by two street-cons Vardha orders them to be killed. Varda's men find Raghav and kill him. Raja witnesses this and decides to avenge the loss.
He seeks the help of a seasoned crook Yogi (Paresh Rawal), whom Raghav used to talk about before his murder. After a lot of persuasion, Yogi agrees to help Raja have his payback. Yogi trains him, and eventually they form a team of crooks, and set out to Cape Town to finish off Varda where he took his revenge.
In May 2013, it was first reported that Kunal Deshmukh's next project would be produced by UTV Motion Pictures. Deshmukh selected Emraan Hashmi for the lead role, collaborating with him for the fourth time. The film was titled Shaatir and Hashmi was revealed to play the character of a 'shaatir' conman in the film. In April 2014, the film's title was changed to Raja Natwarlal inspired by the 1979 Amitabh Bachan film Mr. Natwarlal.
