Dhoom 2: Back in Action (2006)

Dhoom 2: Back in Action: Directed by Sanjay Gadhvi. With Hrithik Roshan, Abhishek Bachchan, Aishwarya Rai Bachchan, Uday Chopra. Mr A, a fearless thief, steals valuable artefacts and teams up with the girl he is attracted to but who cannot be trusted. Close on their heels are three police officers trying to apprehend them.

“Probably one of the rare instance where the successor is better than the predecessor. And yes, solely the credit should go Hritik Roshan for setting the screen ablaze with his electrifying presence. Truly he had added sheen to every frame he is present in. And yes, neatly providing hand-in-glove support is Aishwarya and in honesty the due credit should be given. The only disappointment is her performance which was u0026quot;likeu0026quot; artificial, while on the other hand Hritiku0026#39;s perfection clearly left its mark. u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eJr. B was completely overshadowed by Hritik. I guess Dhoom 2 was Hritiku0026#39;s payback for Main Prem Ki Deewani Hoon, and my my!!u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eUday Chopra is good in the edited role. Anything more would have spoilt the feast. His pairing was akin to 48 Hours, Lethal Weapon and Rush Hour. u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eBipashau0026#39;s sole intention seemed to flaunt her figure which she succeeds. And the double-role was a pot-hole in the storyline.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eRimi Senu0026#39;s character was simply loud and should have been left out (just like Eesha Deol). In fact they should have borrowed the franchise idea from Munnabhai.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eSongs take a while to grow on you unlike the Dhoom where it was instant hit. Choreography deserves a special mention, and yes Vaibhavai Merchant proved she is second to none.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eAction sequences are well done. Noteworthy are suspenseful interplay between Hritik and Aishwarya u0026amp; Hritik and Jr. B. Some good writing there indeed and remind you of Tarantino in Kill Bill.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eIndeed Dhoom had a great potential to churn it into a successful franchise sadly the politics it has run into mars the chances. Needless to say, if it were to go forward Dhoom II has definitely set the bar quite high.”
