Crook is often remembered for its intense, raw scenes portraying the brewing conflict between local Australians and Indian immigrants. Key scenes include the initial discrimination faced by the characters and the climactic confrontations.

The film follows (Emraan Hashmi), a young man involved in petty crimes in Mumbai, selling pirated DVDs. To reform him, his foster father, Sub-Inspector Joseph Pinto (played by Gulshan Grover), sends him to Melbourne, Australia, where he adopts the identity of Suraj Bhardwaj.

The 2010 Indian Hindi-language crime thriller remains a significant, albeit polarizing, entry in Bollywood's attempt to tackle social issues through mainstream cinema. Directed by Mohit Suri, this film aimed to combine the popular "Emraan Hashmi" formula—catchy music, intimate scenes, and a rugged, grey-shaded anti-hero—with the serious subject of racial attacks against Indian students in Australia.
