Vash Level 2

Amazing movie. Amazing writing. Amazing direction. This movie seemed so real and on the point. I hadn't seen the first installment and only watched Shaitaan. All it made me realise was Bollywood could never make a movie that seemed so real.

No unnecessary shaitaaaaan BGMs. Just to the point horrifying and real views.

Sleeper Hit of 2023, Vash gets a sequel. The film, set 12 years after the events of the previous film, follows Atharva reluctantly coming out to fight again after a group of school girls are found in a violent puppet like control over them, with the assailant having a connection with Pratap, the black magician directly responsible for Aarya's current predicament.

The movie kicks off with a top-notch opening scene that immediately grabs your attention and sets higher expectations. However, as the story progresses, the pacing slows down considerably, in an attempt to build the storyline. Unlike it's predecessor, the sequel lacks narrative strength which loses it's grip halfway.

In terms of production, the movie is efficient. The first half had a good amount of shock moments that terrifies. From the performance perspective, except the leads, rest of the side cast were nuisance and felt irritating to the core, as they became irrelevant to the story.

While the story didn't have much weight, the climax felt abrupt and underwhelming, especially with such a strong introduction. I believe it could have been narrated well, with a different ending.

Overall, Vash Level 2 is a decent watch, with an insanely good start, that loses it's intensity halfway, and delivers a not-so-satisfying climax.

My Rating : 3.5/5.

The movie started with an absolutely gripping first half-sharp, engaging, and full of promise. The canteen scene alone set the tone with remarkable intensity. Performances were top-notch across the board, with every character shining, and the female cast delivering especially powerful and memorable portrayals. Some moments were emotionally heavy and deeply satisfying to watch, raising expectations for something truly impactful.

Unfortunately, the second half failed to maintain that momentum. The climax felt rushed, predictable, and disappointingly simple compared to the strong buildup. The much-talked-about "ten rupees logic" was unconvincing and left the story feeling underwhelming. For a film that built such anticipation, the resolution deserved more depth and imagination.

In short, it's a movie worth watching once for the performances and the fantastic first half, but it doesn't reach the brilliance of the first installment.

Vash Level 2 raises the stakes from the first film with slick visuals and intense moments. The scares work early on, yet the story lets go toward the end. Strong performances, especially from Hitu Kanodia and Janki Bodiwala. A decent horror sequel - more flashy than frightening but not every horror movie needs to have jump scares.

We need more such Horror movies from regional cinema.

I had no clue or idea about this movie till it popped up on my Netflix feed and thank goodness it did , a simple but yet powerful and compelling movie, while I could give them a pass on few actors but the protagonist and the antagonist did justice, such movies need to find a broader audience, recommended for all.
