DAbanng 2 is a sequel to 2010 blockbuster Dabangg. This was a perfect sequel and story started where the 1st part ended..The story is simple and is fine with the new director..He took comedy,romance ,action side by side without which the movie wont have apealed much. The man to watch is Salman khan Chulbul pandey..who with his fully humorous and real side came out in this movie.the tiwariji,chowbeyji played a significant role and added much needed humour at very situational places.arbaaz khan,sonakshi sinha were all goodd..the movie is entertaining and you will whistles ,dance along with the movie....

The story revolves around a fearless, humorous, witty Cop Chulbul Pandey(Salman Khan) referred to as Robin Hood by people he is loved by. In this sequel, he is promoted and transferred to Kanpur(a bigger city in the state of Uttar Pradesh) and he continues to be the same or becoming more fearless but is challenged by Baccha Yadav(Prakash Raj) who is the dreaded gangster in the city. Now what people don't know is that the protagonist in a Spaghetti Western suppose to have these witty, humorous and specialization in gun-fu skills. This genre was mostly used by American - Italian director Sergio Leone which made Clint Eastwood what he is today. I think this is a good (if not best) Spaghetti western made in India. If you closely observe the movie you would get the Spaghetti Western reference in this flick. Other Indian movies of same genre include Dabangg and Bullet Raja. While the Prequel was a better version of this genre but this is a good product.
... View MoreDabaang was a surprise hit in 2010 and set a trend of Similar type films while the original was directed by Abhinay Kashyap, the sequel is directed by Arbaaz Khan. Reportedly in the original, Abhinay wanted to make a film like his brother Anurag Kashyap but Salman changed 95% of the film, incorporating action and cheesy dialogues. This time the film just follows the original and looks like a wannabe. The film starts off just like the original with a stunt which alternates between funny and action, and then we have the title song which is similar to the original. The film gets predictable, even the villain angle isn't too strong. Arbaaz Khan in his madien attempt at directing, tries very hard to recreate the success of the original Dabaang and hardly does something out of the world. The war of the words are interesting in some scenes but overall the impact is missing Music by Sajid Wajid retains the same style of the original and the singers too are same. Dagabaaz by Rahat and Shreya tries to recreate Mast Mast and it's okay, Fevicol Se by the same singers of Munni is also good though not as good as the original, while Pandeyji Seethi is okay. The title track lacks the style of the original and is passable Surprisingly this time Sukhwinder sings in his normal tone unlike in the original where he changed his style, Salman's however hardly moves his lips in the song. Action scenes are okay Salman Khan repeats his Chulbul act from the original and does seem to be enjoying himself but there's nothing different. Arbaaz Khan's role is limited to comedy scenes and he is okay Sonakshi does her now by famous act she has been doing since Dabaang her roles are getting similar. Prakash Raj just repeats his act from Singham and hardly gets scope to prove his talent,Also his voice his dubbed by someone elseNikiten Dheer is okay, Vinod Khanna looking frail is passable Mahie Gill is wasted. Deepak Dobriyal is superb as Genda rest are okay
... View MoreDabangg 2 enjoyed a hyped which was envied by every actor, producer and director. But, the higher you climb, the more fatal is the fall. Dabangg 2 is just like Dabangg - all Salman Khan. Question is who made Salman in Dabanng? The answer - Abhinav Singh Kashyap. That is what director Arbaaz Khan knew and what he ignored. I cannot write anything about the story as there is none. But I can tell you how they made Dabangg 2. First they made parallel songs to Dabangg. Dabanng Reloaded, Dagabaaz Re, Pandeyji Seeti, Saanson Ne, Fevicol are all exactly analogous to Hud Hud Dabanng, Tere Mast Mast Do Nain, Humka Peeni Hai, Mora Jiya and Munni Badnaam respectively. Then they filled in the gaps with Salman's antics. The screenplay is mediocre but neither good nor lame. There are comic moments but there could be many more. Dabangg 2 uses Dabangg in a lot of scenes.Arbaaz Khan fails. This man had everything in the world to make a sequel - an all time hit prequel, the biggest star at that time, all the money to make it lavish and most importantly he had all the time in the world to make it because we didn't see him work anywhere else. But so strong is his brother Salman's mass following that Arbaaz succeeds just on paper. Arbaaz is the sole reason why Dabangg 2 is very far from Dabangg. Abhinav had made each joke laughable. Arbaaz does that in just a few. The rest fall flat despite Salman's attempts to help them. Ironically Arbaaz's work is just his character Makkhi in the film - lazy, doing things just for the sake of doing them and counting the chickens before they hatch.Salman gives a splendid performance. But he was much better in Dabanng. Since Arbaaz is the director the characteristics mentioned above reflect in Salman.The cinematography and music were again better in the prequel. The song Fevicol Se is the only exception which is awesome. Kareena is scintillating.Overall Dabanng 2 fails miserably because of two aspects - Dabanng worked fabulously and Arbazz fails horribly in Dabanng 2!
