Baaghi 2 Film Review By Manya Malhotra

Baaghi 2

Thriller

Cast: Tiger Shroff, Disha Patani, Randeep Hooda, Prateik Babbar , Manoj Bajpayee, Deepak Dobriyal

Director: Ahmed Khan

Story: Ronny gets a mysterious call form Neha four years after they parted ways, asking him to help her find her missing daughter. Things , however are not how they seem. Is Neha telling the truth?

Review: We dive right into a world of rebels, drug addicts and vulgar corrupt police officers and are taken close ( a bit too close) to the hub of everything illegal ,Goa. According to the film, in Goa you are either a drug smuggling murderer or a shell shocked victim, there is no in between. Baaghi 2 makes an effort to create a story which is a good thing though I'm not sure how successful they are. The story gets carried away and in an attempt to look stylish and slick it ends up looking illogical and frivolous in places. Also I would like to know what was going on in the minds of whoever developed the characters in this remade version of Telugu movie Kshanam. There is a braid making , selfie clicking absolutely absurd police officer played by Randeep Hooda and a totally "high" and reckless Prateik Babbar. There is also a not so classy rendition of an old classic picturised on the brazen Jacqueline Fernandez.

Despite all this the movie does manage to remain somewhat entertaining. The cheesy dialogues between the hero and heroine in the first film are not present here .. well maybe because there was hardly any romance between the lead pair in this one. There are a few twist and turns in the plot. Some of them are predictable but still bang on! We have Tiger Shroff taking down a whole army of trained men all by himself ,some say it's not plausible but if Salman Khan(the reel tiger) can do it then why not Tiger Shroff who looks much more believable. Tiger has improved his acting .. slightly and his new look is working wonders for him. Every time he comes onscreen or packs a punch the whistles just don't stop! Competition alert for the existing talent in the industry. Disha Patani is .. uh well she's okay. Randeep Hooda is .. uh well he does a pretty good job to be honest and Prateik Babbar , Deepak Dobriyal lend the necessary support. Manoj Bajpayee seems a bit out of place. This film is a one time watch because despite all the hooliganism, lunacy and blunders Baaghi 2 is all heart!

Saiyaara: A Film Review and My Thoughts on Its Reception- By Manya Malhotra

Saiyaara: A Film Review and My Thoughts on Its Reception Saiyaara Reception and Backlash Saiyaara opened to an 84 crores net domestic box office figure on its opening weekend, a feat unheard of for a film with newcomers, in an industry still recognised as primarily star-led. (For context, the two major films starring newcomers in the past 13 years- Dhadak and Student of the Year, earned 33.65 and 30 crores respectively). I have been a Bollywood (or Hindi film industry) fan for as long as I can remember. Seeing one of its films get such a massive reception has been heartwarming, and I cannot remember the last time a film got so much love. It has now been two weeks since the film’s release. I have read both positive and negative reactions to the film’s unprecedented success, and after digesting it all, I thought it was finally time to revisit my blog and pen down my honest opinion on both the film and everything that has followed since its release. Skeptics will spin many t...

Badrinath Ki Dulhania Film Review by Manya Malhotra

Badrinath Ki Dulhania 4 . 5 Romantic comedy Cast : Alia Bhatt, Varun Dhawan, Sahil Vaid, Akanksha Singh, Shweta Basu Prasad, Sukhmani Lamba Director : Shashank Khaitan Story : A Whimsical boy from Jhansi has his heart set on a headstrong girl from Kota. But she wants different things in life . How does their love story play out in a patriarchal society? Review : The film is set in the heartland of India . You are straight away transported into the world of Badrinath Bansal aka Badri (Varun Dhawan ) and Vaidehi Trivedi (Alia Bhatt), characters that will stick with you . He is adamant on getting married to her , she wants to get a job and prove her worth to her family. Full credit to the director (Shashank Khaitan ) for making a film which could easily have become stretched, boring and foolish into a realistic and believable film. The film is entertaining and full of light hearted moments along with some cute ones ...

Meri Pyaari Bindu Film Review By Manya Malhotra

Meri Pyaari Bindu Romance 2.5 Cast : Parineeti Chopra, Ayushmann Khurrana, Aparajita Auddy,Rajatabha Dutta Director : Akshay Roy Story : Childhood sweethearts Abhimanyu and Bindu get separated . Destiny , however has other plans for them as they keep meeting each other repeatedly as they experience love, desperation ,heartbreak ,success and failure together. Review : Meri pyaari Bindu takes you back to the 1990s . The basic concept of the film is not something that is very new but the writers try hard to stand out . The film starts off well ,it is cute and has some chuckle worthy moments ,but you keep waiting for SOMETHING to happen in the film! You wait for that defining moment in the film without which the film just seems incomplete. It looks like the scenes of the film were all shot and then joined together like in a jigsaw puzzle. The film is therefore not able to make much of a connect with the audience.Even if...
