Ghayal Once Again

Guys, saw this movie first day first show… and it was totally worth it… Please do't give a s**t to what critics and (un)professional reviewers have to say.. Sunny has put his heart and soul into the movie which can be literally felt through his screen presence … the movie has some great action & sunny simply rocks them.. Refreshingly, most of the action scenes in movie are different than those being regularly dished out in movies these days…Mumbai has been shot beautifully in the movie… Dan Bradely has done excellent job and deserves acknowledgment for his work..

Though direction could have been better at few instances and script/screenplay a bit tighter, u can easily forgive sunny (the director) as sunny (the actor) more than makes up for that through his acting prowess… All in all, a genuine action movie which can be enjoyed by the family together.. commodity which is scarce in supply these days.. Go fans and watch it for sunny as he is already 58 and you never know when you will see him again doing action like only he can do..!!

Ajay Mehra (Sunny Deol) runs an investigative newspaper that seeks truth not business. Which is why four college kids strive to handover a murder footage to him, accidentally recorded by them. However, it's not as easy as it sounds since some influential people are involved.

Director Sunny Deol fairly manages to retain the essence of the Santoshi's 'Ghayal' blockbuster, while giving it a contemporary twist. While the good-old dialogues and hand-to-hand combat scenes are in place, digitization in today's world (computer hacking, phone tapping etc) has been highlighted too.

Though not as emotionally engaging as the original, the sequel delivers what it promises on the action front. Skilfully shot, elaborate nail-biting chase sequences across the city leave you glued to your seats, gasping for breath. Heavy-duty fist fights are equally gripping. Soha Ali Khan acts well and so do the teenagers.

Despite some flaws, Sunny's idealistic film exudes the sincerity and unbreakable spirit of a common man. If you mess with us, "We will find you and we will punch you." Haha You Must Watch it.

Despite the not so great name, this is a GREAT sequel to 1990's Ghayal. I will go so far as to say that this is the BEST sequel I have seen in Bollywood till date. Ours is not a culture of sequels and it is especially difficult to make a sequel to a cult classic & Blockbuster like Ghayal.

When I heard written & directed by Sunny Deol, I was frankly quite alarmed.

I had gone into the film expecting a poorly made masala entertainer with bad acting and clichéd dialog.But This movie turned out to be hugely entertaining. It is anything but a stupidly made cash grab. I can't recommend this movie highly enough.

This is the closest an Indian film has gotten to 'The Dark Knight' type of film. This movie has powerful ruthless villains, innocents to protect, lot of hi-tech gadgetry and chases, thrills and spills more usually seen in Super Hero films from Hollywood.

This film is rather well written. Surprising, but it is. From the heroes to the villains they all make logical sense. The villain is not as strong as Balwant Rai, but he isn't so one dimensional either, this time the Villain is LITERALLY Mukesh ambani type Industrialist with a family. This film has so many layers to this Villain, he isn't a evil man, he is a business tycoon who is shady, which tycoon isn't ?

That makes this movie realistic. A REALISTIC sunny doel film?

From the writing to the action, everything Is now updated to the 2010s and its mostly very real. From the wounds incurred by the heroes while fighting, to the technique of the fights everything is plausible. There is no more super over the top falling from 10 floors and not getting hurt.

The plot has quite a few twists and turns and also has AMAZING sequences straight out of a Hollywood film with hacking, Cameras, surveillance, media corruption and a LOT more. One particular long chase sequence was actually tense enough for the entire theater to stop breathing for a while. There are more writers listed other than Sunny Deol and KUDOS to them… Brilliant job of writing an emotional action thriller. The stunts are very good too. Unlike stupid masala films the hero does fail many times, his car doesn't quite clear a jump, he trys to run away from the goons etc.

Acting wise, the film has a lot of strong performances. Surprisingly major parts of the film is Sunny Deol less and shows his confidence as a director in letting the younger cast have their screen time.

In conclusion, this is a Sequel to a VERY successful film and they managed to make it good. VERY GOOD!

Rating 7.5/10. A MUST watch for action, thriller lovers. Special bonus for Sunny Deol Lovers.

Not a die hard fan of Deol but I am of his work in 1990 GHAYAL. So I went to watch this one and yes it's worth watching.The plot is pretty straight forward and lacks the twists and turns as in the 1990 GHAYAL but then action has improved and seriously has the potential to keep one glued.The characters do fade in and out sometimes abruptly but then they have done justice to their roles, especially NARENDRA JHA (Sachin Bansal) who had big shoes to fill in place of legendary actor Amrish Puri (Balwant Rai). The trademark GHAYAL tune helps. Yeah there are few loop holes and certain scenes don't make sense but then AJAY MEHRA the core of the movie, still remains the same, powerful at dialogue delivery and good in action. And just as an old song says "SOCH NA KYA JO BHI HOGA DEKHA JAYEGA", don't think give a watch once.

A good movie for comeback but I am missing old sunny's anger and dialogue.There is no dialogue in the movie for sunny, I am very much disappointed with that otherwise movie is OK
