NOTE FEW SPOILERS AHEAD

I loved it. Words can't say much. Am just too excited. going back tomorrow

Only 3 cinemas in NZ got thursday show and I was lucky we got the ticket. FIRST TIME SEETI and CHEERING

SALMAN KHAN does IT AGAIN!!! Wins your heart with superb Chulbuli perfomance. He snatches your attention every second he is on screen (just besides Bebo's adaa, Munni's thumkas and Sonakshi's beauty) You can write book on his persona. He is ruthless yet lovable. Mischief but charming. He defines DABANGG

Prakash Raj was great. Funny but yet cruel villain. Was all big talks as usual. As we know he is no heroic villain who fights back and rips shirt to show his 6 pac. Despite all, Bacha bhaiya surpasses Chedi Singh's charisma and style. Dhaarmik Villain that was!

Sonakshi was great as house wife. Great in emotional scenes. And romantic scenes. Chemistry was unbelievably awesome. More screen time than Dabangg & Rowdy Rathore. Rajjo acting as pregnant woman, she looked bit heavy.Yet pretty.

Vinod Khanna was superb - Various funny scenes involving pranks calls. Great father-son chemistry between Salman. After Wanted and Dabangg, this goes further and shares great on screen time together. 'Prajapati Pandey mere sapno ke raja'

Arbaaz, as we know he plays Makhi, a dumb one. He is hilarious. Especially with riddle thrown on him by Chulbul to solve out in start of film but later gets solved by interval. Lack of screen presence but that's obvious. LOL at dance in fevicol

Mahie Gill played limited role. Special appearance but she glowed as Nirmila. Tinu Anand has very short appearance.

Brothers of Bacha Bhaiya. Chunni played Deepak and Genda played by that guy in Tanu Weds Manu. Both were awesome LOUDMOUTH support of BB. Infact Chunni, in final battle with Chulbul is awesome.

Manoj Pahwa is great as Salman's boss!!! Funny as usual. But is over-powered by Bacha Bhaiya so he is shown as chamcha. He just eats pizza whole time.

Music: Loved all 5 tracks. I loved Fevicol and Bebo glowed. From that teaser we see her expressions mainly, but she matches upto Chulbul style throughout the whole song. And there were actually seeti's and taali's. So much that the duty manager came and asked them to suss out. PandeyJee Seeit was ROCKING bigtime. Mailaka Arora was Thrilling once again!!! and trust me she isn't there for 20 seconds or so but nearly whole song. Saanson was shot beautifully in Dubai. The chemistry was lovely. Expressions were mindblowing. Dagabaaz my fav situational song. Chulbul wins Rajo after upsetting by not being there ...etc 😆 Chemistry was cute. Udh Udh Dabangg (Reloaded) - Intro is too much!!! Lovely!!!! Mamta Sharma(singer of Fevcol & Munni) has special appearance where she gets her star moment with Chulbul

Tiny Witsy Spoiler Ahead!

Plot was at similar level to first one but this was presented with more positiveness. Chulbul was actually shown much happier with his family. Till one incident that takes place which can get you bit emotional.

Direction was impressive. I though he did a great job. Just few bits I thought he could added a bit more but it was still great as it was presented. But overall. It was excellent. Action: was 10 times ahead of Dabangg. Cinematography was excellent. Chereography and Song direction were at high standards. Just extra 👍🏼 for Pandey Jee seeti. Oh that big fat guy who is shown as Gunda in every Salman film was in here aswell dancing to a recent track of Salman. As for story, I didn't go in cinema expecting oscar winning film so instead I went with expectation of Masala. This year we had Rowdy Rathore, Khiladi 786 and Son Of Sardaar types of MASALA. but trust, even Non-Salman fan would cearly say DABANGG 2 IS THE BEST MASALA of 2012.

Watch it for AWESOME DIALOGUES, THRILLING ACTION SEQUENCES, LOVABLE MUSIC AND STRUCTURAL HERO-VILLAIN PLOT AND CHULBUL PANDEY AT HIS BEST...

Beyond rating 👏

Dabangg 2

By Taran Adarsh, 20 Dec 2012, 23:17 hrs IST

The job of a promo is to send out accurate pointers to its target audience. The gist of the premise, the essence of what the characters will be, an extract of the milieu... one needs to furnish a general idea of what to expect when the spectator saunters into the cineplex to watch the film. Arbaaz Khan and Abhinav Singh Kashyap had a tough responsibility on their shoulders when they embarked upon DABANGG. As luck would have it, DABANGG was hailed as one of the best entertainers of that year, with Chulbul Pandey becoming a household name. The film consolidated Salman as the darling of the masses, a position he enjoys to this date.

With DABANGG 2, one is well prepared about what to expect. The sole factor that Arbaaz needs to worry about is whether DABANGG 2 would meet the towering and monumental expectations. More so, because Salman Khan is contending with himself. He seems to be raising the bar [in terms of business] with each film. WANTED, DABANGG, READY, BODYGUARD, EK THA TIGER' Salman has redefined superstardom with mass entertainers. He's Boxoffice's fav child and seems invincible and insurmountable at the moment!

With DABANGG 2, you know exactly what to expect. But you don't know its premise till the reels unfold. Let me add, the plot is an extension of the first installment of the franchise. The route is very similar except that the antagonist is more influential and authoritative.

DABANGG 2 is a typical Bollywood film. It's the kind of cinema we relished in the 1980s and enjoy to this date, but narrated in today's lingo and format. It may/may not make sense to you, but Arbaaz and team ensure that you are entertained. Thoroughly entertained, actually. It's riotous, outrageous, wacky, ambitious, absolutely madcap, transports you to an altogether different world. Add to it a sprinkling of desi songs, wicked sense of humor, with Chulbul Pandey taking on the antagonist like the vintage hero would -- with fearlessness and daredevilry. Actually, Chulbul Pandey has come to represent the common man and that's yet another reason why you root for him, feel overjoyed and ecstatic when he triumphs in the finale.

For those who adore masala movies, celebrate mainstream cinema, relish the cinema of yore and of course, hero-worship Salman Khan, DABANGG 2 is your ticket this festive season.

DABANGG 2 begins with Chulbul Pandey moving to Kanpur. Once there, Chulbul gets into conflict with Baccha Bhaiyya [Prakash Raj]. Baccha Bhaiyya, a criminal turned politician, is aided by his two brothers, Chunni [Nikitin Dheer] and Gainda [Deepak Dobriyal]. Things take a turn for worse when Chulbul kills Gainda. the battle lines are drawn...

Like I pointed out at the outset, DABANGG 2 is a hardcore masala entertainer that's desi at heart. The plot is *not* out of the box [it's the usual good versus evil saga], but it's completely irrelevant here. What camouflages this deficiency are several interesting episodes that Arbaaz and writer Dilip Shukla have integrated in those 2 + hours. These episodes, aimed at pleasing the hoi polloi and of course, Salman's die-hard fans and also fans of mainstream cinema, are, to put in filmi lingo, absolutely paisa vasool. In fact, Salman's star power is so so so strong that you're ready to overlook and forgive-and-forget any blemish that you may encounter in the movie.

Yes, there are blemishes. The Arbaaz-Mahie Gill track is half-baked. The confrontation scenes between Salman and Prakash Raj lack fiery dialogue. The songs, though popular, are integrated in the narrative without any valid situations. But these are cinematic licenses you overlook in a Salman movie.

Arbaaz Khan, who makes his directorial debut with this film, knows his fundas right. He may have borrowed from the cinema of 1970s and 1980s, but he garnishes it well enough to suit the present-day sensibilities. Sajid-Wajid take the same route they undertook while making the soundtrack of DABANGG. Much like the content of the film, the songs are desi, with a mix of old-world charm ['Dagabaaz Re' and 'Saanson Ne'] and foot-tapping numbers ['Pandeji Seeti' and 'Fevicol']. In fact, 'Fevicol' is already a rage and Kareena's presence in the song only acts as sone pe suhaaga. The action/stunts do complete justice to Salman's persona. The action plays a crucial role in a masala entertainer and adds so much power to those scenes. Dialogue are of mixed variety.

Salman uses his fists, escapes the bullets, spews venom and threats, bullies the villain, flirts and romances his wife, does the pelvic thrusts' in fact, he does everything that one expects from Chulbul Pandey. Oh yes, he even takes off his shirt, flexing his muscles and showing his well sculptured torso without inhibitions, a mandatory requirement in a Salman Khan movie. Honestly speaking, DABANGG 2 is a Salman Khan vehicle and the actor is the Big Boss here. You cannot imagine anyone else doing what he does. And every time he plays to the gallery, many in the audience [especially at single screens] are sure to fling the loose change on screen as a mark of appreciation for his on-screen antics. He defies logic and gets away with it!

Sonakshi has the infectious charm and radiates confidence all through the enterprise. Arbaaz is just about okay. Mahie Gill has nothing to do. Vinod Khanna is passable.

Prakash Raj is in terrific form yet again. The supremely talented actor is ferocious when the need arises. Nikitin Dheer has good screen presence and does well. Deepak Dobriyal gets better scenes and is hugely competent.

On the whole, DABANGG 2 has Salman Khan, Salman Khan and Salman Khan + Entertainment, Entertainment and Entertainment in large doses. The film has the masala to work big time with the masses. This one will rewrite the rules of the game and the festive occasion [Christmas and New Year] will aid its potential. Sure shot Blockbuster!
