Julie 2

went for Raai Laxmi and I must say that she is a powerhouse of an actress. She started her career with Akira and here comes her second, Julie 2. Totally contrasting roles. Easily the best female lead performance in 2017. Filmfare worthy material.

There are two more things that differentiates the film from other recent releases. First is the outstanding background score. From the evergreen 'Oh Julie' to the entertaining Mala Sinha', background music is simply superb. Secondly, the blistering dialogs are mind blowing. One jewel after another. So much so that you cannot even keep count on them.

Julie 2 hardly has a dull moment. It does get a bit slow when it goes to the soft side of Julie and her love interests, however, that too remains an integral part of the storyline. Do keep in mind the 18+ rating of the film before going to the theaters and keep the expectations on those lines. If you do, you are up for a treat. Final verdict: Can be seen once on the big screen.

A good entertaining film. The film depicts the journey of a simple girl through various events of her life ultimately leading her to one truth i.e. in the race for love, fame, wealth she almost looses her soul, only to realize, repent and reconnect back to the creator of this world. The songs and glamour is keeping in tide with the typical bollywood masala routine. The performance of the leading lady Raai Laxmi is amazing and she carries the entire film on her shoulders very well. She sure deserves the best Bollywood debutante award for 2017. The director has done a fabulous job. Not easy to bring to screen spirituality and glamour. It is sad that the press has thrashed a brilliant eye opener film. Reminds me of Andaz Apna Apna how it was written off,nyet today is considered a cult film. Julie 2 is sure to leave a lasting mark on bollywood if not for this generation the generation to follow.

Some bits are copied from a Telugu film "Akasamantha film" and rest of the film is dry and overaction

The first thing you notice about this film is Raai Laxmi's superb acting, magical musical numbers and a strong narrative. Julie 2 not only delivers what it had promised but also exceeds expectations by introducing a surprise murder mystery. The film is both - thought provocative and entertaining.

A few watch films for its elegance, good acting and high production values. A few watch films for their sleaziness, skin display and controversy. How often do you get both the sides leaving the theater satisfied thinking that they got a great value for money? Deepak Shivdasani and Pahlaj Nihalani's film, Julie 2 has managed both.

Terrific plot and great performances. This one is a good watch over the weekend. Definitely highly recommended!

This film has a lot of "style" and "substance". Julie is "bold" and "beautiful", but I don't understand what makes the filmmaker claim that she's "blessed". You will enjoy this thriller despite the apparent flaws. Julie 2 is able to balance the story and the swagger. Twists and turns keep the plot gripping. You will not miss the fact that the director's name doesn't appear in opening credit but at the time of interval. And then the second half - where the pace loses steam. Having said that, other departments are good enough to pull the film until the climax. To the savior are a few melodious songs in the second half. The background score is apt. Dialogues are the highlights; some could go down very well as Bollywood dialogue memories.

Raai Laxmi makes an interesting debut in Bollywood. She is effortless and plays her character with ease. She literally pulls the film all by herself. Indeed the South Indian film industry is known for handpicking rare gems. You can definitely consider this for your weekend watch.
