Awarapan 2 Movie Review: Emraan Hashmi Ki Zabardast Wapasi, Lekin Kahani Kamzor
Awarapan 2
19 saal baad Shivam Pandit ki wapasi - nostalgia strong hai, lekin script utni nahi.
Story
2007 ki cult classic Awarapan ka sequel, Awarapan 2, Shivam Pandit (Emraan Hashmi) ki kahani continue karta hai - jo apni "fatal" death ke 19 saal baad zinda nikalta hai. Film us waqt shuru hoti hai jab Shivam ne adopt ki hui beti Alia Bangkok me missing ho jaati hai, aur wo use ek child trafficking racket se bachane nikal padta hai. Emotional depth ke saath action thriller ka mix hai, lekin kai reviewers ka kehna hai ki screenplay original jaisi tight nahi hai.
Performance
Sabki ek hi raay hai - Emraan Hashmi is film ki jaan hain. India Today ki review ke mutabik "Hashmi film ko apne kandho par uthate hain, pehle scene se hi." Shabana Azmi aur Disha Patani bhi apne roles me theek-thaak hain, lekin film ka poora weight Emraan par hi tika hai.
Direction & Technical Aspects
Director Nitin Kakkar (Filmistaan, Notebook) ne original director Mohit Suri ki jagah li hai. Rajasthan aur Bangkok ki cinematography kaafi tareef paa rahi hai. Mithoon ka music original ki yaad dilata hai aur nostalgia factor ko strong banata hai. Trailer ko lekar mixed reaction mila tha (bahut fast-paced lagi thi), lekin poori film trailer se better pace maintain karti hai.
Final Verdict
Agar aap original Awarapan ke fan hain ya sirf Emraan Hashmi ki performance dekhna chahte hain, to ye film worth a watch hai. Lekin agar aap ek tight, surprising script expect kar rahe hain, to thoda disappoint ho sakte hain. Independence Day weekend par release hone ke baad film ne 100 crore club cross kiya hai.
