Kahaani 2

Kahaani 2 is what they call a spiritual sequel. Here too we have a leading lady named Vidya and that's probably where the connection between the first and the second film rests. But the film is really enjoyable - a tense thriller and even more tense psychological drama, the story of which unfolds in pieces with nice twists and turns and great suspense. Now, right, the entire child abuse track is not given enough depth and is even quite simplistically handled, but then the film makes up for it with great suspense. Sujoy Ghosh shows to have quite a knack for this kind of cinema and his skill shows at all levels even if the film could have been better.

As expected, Vidya Balan is brilliant playing a woman who finds purpose in life and turns her biggest weakness into her prime strength. She is consistently in sync with her character and her involvement is very convincing. She is totally matched by Arjun Rampal, who is more of a supporting actor on paper but in actual fact he is as much a hero in this film as his female counterpart. The film ends on a nice note and it reveals the film's smart writing leading to a very good film. The film might not enjoy the aesthetic and cinematographic brilliance of its prequel but it's enjoyable from start to end and is altogether a good watch.

After watching kahaani I was wishing for a squeal.Now,when at last the squeal released, I am disappointed. The first film was so much full of thrill, and the squeal is just the opposite. Kahaani 2 is just a typical thriller which failed to reach the expectation.Making squeal of a successful movies has become a trend.Directors of good movies such kahaani should not follow this trend without enough strong story.

Though it has no link with Kahaani 1 though the linkage creates expectations. Story is well run though it lacks any suspense. The story is told strongly with no turns and twists which cannot be foreseen as the writer himself reveals how the plot will flow.

Sujoy Ghosh and Vidya Balan repeat the magic. Vidya Balan merges with her role effortlessly like her other high performance roles.

Arjun Rampal fits in well in his role as sub inspector though he did not have much to do.

Its Vidya Balan movie all in all.

Kahaani 2, which appeared four years after the first film, is well below expectations. This film, which tells a totally different story, is trying to protect its excitement as it was in the first film. Some technical errors can be seen, but I liked the roles of Vidya Balan and other actors. Those who watch the first movie may give the second film a chance.

After Kahaani, the expectations for the sequel was sky high; and I would say Kahaani 2 will surely not dishearten you. The plot of the movie is the story of how Durga Rani Singh (Vidya Balan) saves a helpless child from her uncle who abuses her regularly, and later from a kidnapper which is intercepted by police. The movie will keep you thrilled from the very beginning itself with lots of twists and turns and finally a typical "Kahaani" type of twist in the end.The acting of all the actors are really good and Arjun Rampal has really nailed it as a cop. Vidya Balan's role as a typical Bengali woman was also good. I do not know why the opening of this movie was bad but I think it is really a good movie, a real treat for thriller movie lovers. Go to the theaters and watch it. I can assure you, your money will not be wasted.
