Rock on 2

You pick up some jobless and struggling actors to act in such movies like Kumud mishra playing character of a classical Music Guru Pandit Vibhuti who in personal life has zero knowledge of Pandits and the classical music.

Movie is a one sided dailogue to demean Hindu culture and values.

Its very Bad written and random stuff like Superman coming to Farhan and Farhan kicks his balls with the help of Arjun druggist.

This is what Farhan and Ritesh thought they were making

1) A film with political riots and heavy metal being the reason. 2) Using the elements from the prequel in a mediocre way. 3) Music that will ruin every rock star's dream.

And you get Rock On 2

The first looks by its teaser and trailer just didn't match my expectations. Shujaat Saudagar has potential of being a good director but his aesthetic shots were sloppy. The performances in the movie were average. The only weakling in the acting department was Arjun Rampal. His performance was kinda like a drug addict taking therapeutic sessions at a rehabilitation center. The story and screenplay was absolutely terrible in such a way that the movie didn't make any sense whatsoever. Very clueless I was. Shankar- Ehsaan-Loy, whyyyy??? Absolutely horrifying music which made the movie's flow haphazard. Abhishek Kapoor in my opinion has brought some mentality from his previous failed venture which was Fitoor.

Overall, please don't waste your money this weekend. If you are really craving a musical film, go to the video store and pick up a Blu-ray of the prequel of this movie or Dil Toh Pagal Hai. This movie is recommended for people who want to sleep.

2/5- Bad dream for Indian Rockstars

First up I was very excited to watch this film, it being a sequel to my favorite Bollywood film. But believe me it is so BAD that it would me an absolute insult comparing it with it predecessor. Shitty dialogues, illogical story line, no music (at all).Acting wise, it really didn't matter, because the story itself is so pathetic. Personally, I felt extremely insulted because of the way the story goes. It makes people look like they are a bunch of dumb wits because it is such an unbelievably nonsensical piece of crap. I still have no clue why there was a sequel made of such an amazing film. Ironically I always wanted to write a positive review on the first part because it was such a good film(never got around doing that), but here I am writing an entirely opposite review for it's sequel. It totally screwed up the first part for me as well.

Debutant director Shujaat Saudagar highly disappointed in forced sequel of Highly appreciated Musical drama film Rock On. For this genre, Music is soul like previous one but here Shankar Ehsaan Loy were totally failed to impress. Script has nothing good to offer and sometimes seems to be an ad for Meghalaya Tourism. There were average performances from lead actors but Shraddha Kapoor 's role added more misery in the drama.Kumud Mishra was good in supporting role.

Final words: Just avoid this crap sequel and you can enjoy Rock On!! at home with family while enjoying Instant popcorn and Hot Coffee.

Verdict: Flop

"This movie is lame – totally" my lil daughter in her heavily accented, peer induced valspeak would say when there's a movie she doesn't like. This movie isn't an exception. The storyline is cheezy from the word Go. After the Gangnam style success of its prequel, the 2 version is not even close to " pen pineapple". Of course trying to dilute Indian rock music, with its familiar 5 note piano ballad preludes and mediocre guitar riffs that repeat monotonously bar after bar, like a young child experimenting on a new sampler into something even unfamiliar for the Indian masses broca- like the Khasi folk fusion, is an experiment filled with rash risks. Farhan preferred to piggy back on that suicide note instead.

This is nothing more than a Pen Pineapple formula gone wrong. Save the celluloid for something worthwhile. Pay more for quality story writing.
