Bharateeyudu 2 movie review : A disappointing sequel

Movie: Bharateeyudu 2
Rating: 2.25/5
Cast: Kamal Haasan, Siddharth, Priya Bhawani Shankar, Rakulpreet Singh, Nedumudi Venu
Director:  Shankar
Produced By:  Lyca Productions, Red Giant Movies
Release Date: July 12th, 2024

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.

Bharateeyudu 2 Premiers reviews, Audiences talk and ratings

Shankar and Kamal Haasan’s Bharateeyudu 2 failed to create an impact with the promotions and managed to create little excitement among the moviegoers. Despite being a blockbuster sequel, the promotions couldn’t lead to any anticipation impacting the film very badly.

Bharateeyudu 2 audience talk and premiere review

The movie was released today and shockingly the film opened with below-par reviews from audiences. Everyone felt this was Shankar’s weakest film with no interesting scenes or emotional connection. The film starts well with corruption scenes and the comeback of Senapathy. However, post this, the film just goes downhill with no major high points or exciting scenes.

A few scenes work well in parts but those also failed to create an impact due to dragged screenplay and failure to excite the audience. Many felt that the film was unnecessarily divided into two parts as most of the parts were dragged and uninteresting. Poor writing and predictable screenplay also severely impacted the film.

Bharateeyudu 2 Cast and Crew

Shankar’s Bhaarateyudu 2 was also released in Hindi as Hindustani 2 while the original Tamil version is named Indian 2. Lyca Productions and Red Giant Films have bankrolled this big-budget project while Anirudh Ravichander has composed the songs. Bharateeyudu 2 also stars Siddharth, Priya Bhavani Shankar, and Nedumudi Venu Rakul Preet Singh, in key roles.

Anirudh thanks both Shankar and A.R. Rahman

Music Director, Anirudh Ravichander has worked for Indian 2 directed by Shankar. The film is releasing in few hours today worldwide. Anirudh has started a trend of posting reviews about his films through a tweet ahead of the films’ release. But this didn’t happen with Indian 2. Anirudh has tweeted a reply thanking both Shankar and A.R. Rahman now.

There were many doubts from people’s side about Anirudh’s silence about Indian 2. They felt that he was intentionally maintaining this silence because of film’s poor content. But he has not still posted the review but replied to a post of Shankar about Indian 2. Shankar posted a picture of him along with A.R. Rahman and Anirudh. Anirudh replied to this by thanking them. He also termed them as his inspirations.

Anirudh should have also mentioned about the film’s review through his tweet. We don’t know if this was intentional or a forgotten one. But let’s wish the team all the best for their efforts. Indian 2 will also have a third part, Indian 3. Anirudh would also act as the music composer for the third part. Indian 3 is being planned to be released during Christmas this year. The trailer of the film will also be released during the climax of Indian 2.

Indian 3 trailer is out

Indian 2, the current of Shankar is releasing today worldwide. The team has pinned high hopes on the film and also became busy with many promotional activities for the film. Shankar gave many interviews regarding the film and revealed an interesting aspect now. He said that the Indian 3 trailer will be revealed after the climax of Indian 2.

Shankar said that the trailer of Indian 3 will come after the climax scene of Indian 2. He said that it will be revealed during the credits. So this means that Shankar has planned something as a twist or suspense to continue it till the credits section. This is also a plan to hook the audience on to the next part after the film’s climax. Indian 3 trailer will be released afterwards as well. But this will be a big thump to the audiences.

Now that Indian 2 early premieres are completed, the Indian 3 trailer was played at the end of the film. The Indian 3 trailer focused mainly on Senapathy’s father set in 1800 backdrop, Veera Sekharan, and his freedom fight. Kajal is also shown as a freedom fighter. Kamal Haasan looks fabulous as Veera Sekharan, and the portions seem very emotional. However, since Indian 2 has opened to mixed reviews, it remains to be seen how people will show interest in Indian 3.

Indian 2 must work at Box office for Shankar to continue the momentum on to the next part. Indian 3 will release six months after the release of Indian 2. Indian 3 announced as early 2025 release. Indian 2 must deliver for Shankar and is definitely a decider for his fate through his upcoming films.

Indian 2, the decider of Shankar’s fate

Indian 2, Shankar’s current film is releasing today worldwide. The film is not just a film but a decider for Shankar’s fate. Shankar has been struggling with the content in his films and last film, 2.0 didn’t quite meet the expectations. Fans of Shankar felt that 2.0 didn’t live up to the expecations and worked for a bit only because of Rajinikanth’s stardom and sequel craze of Enthiran/Robo. Now, Shankar is coming again with a sequel of his yesteryear Blockbuster, Indian/Bharateeyudu. All eyes are on both Indian 2’s reviews and Shankar’s fate after these.

Shankar has lined up two films after Indian 2. He extended the Indian 2 series with the third part and confirmed it officially as well with Indian 3. The Director is also working for Game Changer starring Ram Charan which has completed its shoot almost. So, Indian 2 must work for Shankar to promote hype on to his next films. If the film secures a negative talk it will have a big affect on Indian 3 directly. People may not even show interest to come to the third part as well. So Indian 2 must work for Shankar by hook or crook.

The team is very confident about Indian 2. Kamal Haasan too has been speaking the same and he even said that he was waiting for Indian 3 more than Indian 2. So, Today will be the most important day for Shankar for his future films. Let’s wish him the best.

NTR and Ram Charan win filmfare awards

Tollywood Actors, NTR and Ram Charan rose to nationwide fame with their previous outing, RRR. This was directed by SS Rajamouli. The film became a blockbuster hit and went on to gain international recoginition as well with Netflix. So much so that a song, Naatu Naatu from the film won an Oscar Award. Now, both NTR and Ram Charan won the Best Actor Award for RRR in Filmfare Awards South 2023.

There has been a debate about who would get the Best Actor award for RRR. There were fan wars regarding the same issue on various social media platforms. Some felt NTR deserved this award whereas some others wanted Ram Charan to win. So it seems Filmfare award management wanted to avoid controversy and gave the award for both. They will receive the award in the award ceremony.

However both didn’t get any National Award for their performance. Allu Arjun became the first Telugu Actor to win this award for his Pushpa. RRR brought Rajamouli and the team so much of recognition worldwide. Rajamouli is also hoping to recreate this with his upcoming film starring Mahesh Babu. Currently pre-production works are going for the film and it may be launched officially this year.

Akshay Kumar: A Producer’s nightmare

Akshay Kumar was one of the leading stars of Bollywood for many years. He scored many blockbusters as well. But he lost track with some flops and found it tough to get going. He also did multiple projects at a time and released them continuously in short span. He took remuneration more than 100 crores as well. Akshay Kumar has become a Producer’s nightmare as well.

He recently starred in Bade Miyan Chote Miyan which became a big disaster at the box office despite huge budget. Now, his current film, Sarfira (remake of Suriya’s Soorarai Pottru/Aakasam Nee Haddu raa) is releasing tomorrow. But the advance bookings of the film are not even close to 2 crores in India. These are truly disastrous bookings.

A big positive word of mouth may not bring audiences to the theatres and hence it may end up getting less than 20 crores in India. This will be a big loss considering his remuneration of 100 crores. He is not able to get even a 10 crore opening gross at least. This is definitely turning Akshay Kumar into a Producer’s nightmare. He needs to give a big come back to take care of his market in the future.
