Vadh 2 Movie Review Synopsis:
VADH 2 is about a strange event that happens in a prison.
Manju Singh (played by Neena Gupta) has been in Shivpuri Jail, Madhya Pradesh, since 1994 for two murders and is set to be released soon. She has formed a close bond with the prison guard Shambhunath Mishra (played by Sanjay Mishra) and other staff members. Meanwhile, Prakash Singh (played by Kumud Mishra), a strong believer in caste, becomes the new superintendent. He finds out that Keshav (played by Akkshay Dogra), the brother of MLA Ramshankar, is causing trouble in the jail. Many police officers and guards don't take action against him because of his link to the MLA. But Prakash punishes Keshav after he attacks an old prisoner for a weak reason. Prakash's higher-ups scold him for being too tough on Keshav. At night, Keshav calls Prakash and insults him. Prakash, who is drunk, gets very angry and enters Keshav's cell and attacks him. The next morning, Keshav goes missing and it is thought that he has escaped from the jail. Ateet Singh (played by Amitt K Singh) is sent to investigate. He realizes that not just Prakash, but Manju and Shambhunath might also be involved in Keshav's disappearance. What happens next is the rest of the film.
Vadh 2 Movie Story Review:
Jaspal Singh Sandhu's story is similar to VADH [2022], but the prison setting makes this film different.
His screenplay (additional work by Neha Shitole and Rahul Sain) is engaging but moves slowly. His dialogues (additional work by Neha Shitole and Rahul Sain) are ordinary, and some one-liners are dramatic.
Jaspal Singh Sandhu’s direction is good.
He brings the characters to life nicely and keeps the audience interested. The villain is shown in a way that makes you hate him immediately, especially after he behaves badly with Naina Kumari (played by Yogita Bihani) and attacks an old prisoner. A scene where Ateet meets Shambhunath at his home is memorable. The conversation between Manju and Shambhunath at the beginning is sweet. The final scene is unexpected.
On the other hand, the film moves too slowly.
The makers reveal much of what happened to Keshav much later in the second half, but you can guess what happened earlier. In the first part, the conflict is shown clearly without needing flashbacks, which adds to the surprise and entertainment. The investigation by Ateet is not done well. There is also no sense that the situation is important, especially since it involves an MLA's brother. If the brother was so dangerous, the MLA must be even worse. Yet, the police don’t seem worried, and there is no real sense of seriousness about the case.
Vadh 2 Movie Review Performances:
Sanjay Mishra gives a natural, authentic performance.
This time, his acting is more restrained and works well. Neena Gupta continues to deliver a solid, impressive performance. Surprisingly, she is not in the second half much. Amitt K Singh is like the second lead, given his screen time, and does a good job, but his performance suffers because of the writing. Akkshay Dogra plays his part well. Kumud Mishra supports the film well. Yogita Bihani and Shilpa Shukla (played by Rajni Sharma) have strong moments. Nadeem Khan (played by Nadeem Khan), Nidhi Dewan (Nafeesa), Akanksha Ojha (Charulatha Verma), and Abhay Verma (Satyapal Sikarwar; IG) are okay.
Vadh 2 movie music and other technical aspects:
'Ishq Ki Umar' (by Rochak Kohli) is forgettable, but the visuals are pleasant.
Advait Nemlekar's background score is suitable.
Sapan Narula's cinematography is good.
Sidhant Malhotra’s production design is convincing. Darshan Jalan and Manish Tiwari’s costumes are modest. Paramjeet Singh Balkar Dhillon's action scenes are realistic. Bharat S Raawat's editing could have been smoother. The film is 131 minutes long and could have been 15 minutes shorter.
Vadh 2 Movie Review Conclusion:
Overall, VADH 2 is a thriller that keeps you guessing with an unexpected ending.
However, the story has some loose parts, and the subject is unlikely to appeal to a wide audience. Hence, its box office performance is uncertain.
