Shankar’s Bharateeyudu 2 has finally hit the screens worldwide. The film has failed to create a buzz as the makers hoped for with the trailer and promotional content not standing up to the expectations. The film is made on a massive budget and the makers are hoping that positive word of mouth will help the film sail through. Let’s see if the movie manages to create the positive talk or not
Story:
Freedom Fighter Senapathy (Kamal Haasan) fights against the corrupted individuals and system. He doesn’t even spare his son (Younger Kamal Haasan) in the first part and leaves India. He returns after 18 years to fight against corruption again which he calls his second freedom fight. The rest of the film showcases his fight against corruption and how he encourages the youth to take part in his fight.
Performances:
Kamal Haasan’s acting is solid as always but it’s his make up and prosthetics that take away from his performance. They are distracting and look quite unnatural. His look in the first part looked way better and its one of the major negatives of the film. Siddharth has a meaty role and does a decent job in his role as a youngster fighting against the system. The rest of the actors are fine with nothing major to talk about. SJ Suryah as the antagonist has a strong presence but the it appears to be a guest role with more scope and screentime in Indian 3
Analysis:
Bharateeyudu 2 has a patchy screenplay with multiple subplots and sequences stitched haphazardly. None of these sequences combine seamlessly to give the viewers a decent movie-going experience. Siddharth’s second-half plot is probably the only sub-plot that works well and may keep the viewers engaged and emotionally attached.
Anirudh’s music also doesn’t work at times. Except for the “Comeback Indian” song all other songs fail big time. Production and technical values are top-notch but don’t help the cause.
Positives:
- Kamal Haasan’s performance
- Production values
Negatives:
- Bharateeyudu look
- Weak screenplay
- Lack of emotional connect
- No powerful sequence like the first film
Verdict:
Shankar fails big time to deliver this time with the Blockbuster Bharateeyudu sequel. He couldn’t deliver his strongest areas like emotions and gripping narration this time.
