Production

Qaidi No. 911 was produced and directed by Aspi Irani under Super Pictures.[2][3] The story and screenplay were written by C. J. Pavri, and the dialogue by Akhtar Ul-iman. Cinematography was handled by Dali Daroowala.[2]

Reception

K. B. Goel, a reviewer for the magazine Thought wrote, "[Sheikh Mukhtar] is strongly built and very tall but seems ill-adjusted in his role" and added, "All this abracadabra could have been a little intelligible had the director Mr Aspi concentrated on the character development rather than dances, which occur at the least provocation, and on enacting the same scene, with slight variations, of the night club. But he chooses what is grist in our films. And that is that."[1] The film was a commercial success.[3][7]
