Story:
An excellent tale, the story continues from the Nagre household with the only difference that Shankar Nagre (Abhishek Bachchan) has taken the reins of power but always under the watchful eye of Subhash Nagre (Amitabh Bachchan). Things change when Anita (Aishwarya Rai) enters the scene, she happens to be the CEO of Sheppard Power plant and comes up with a proposal of a power plant for which she requires the support of the masses. The deep thinking Shankar sees a lot of promise and growth opportunities for the people around and is impressed with the idea but it is not the same opinion expressed from Subhash. However, Shankar manages to convince Sarkar and both Shankar, Anita set out on a mission visiting various villages in Maharashtra to gain mass support. They find their share of opposition from Somji (Rajesh Shringapure) one of the local lads in the village. However, in his quest for the welfare of his people what Shankar fails to realize is that all this is actually a snare which is getting deeper and deeper as the movement thickens. Is he in a position to wriggle out of the situation before it is too late? Does Sarkar come to the rescue of Shankar? All this forms the rest of the story.
Presentation:
Ramgopal Varma has come back with a vengeance, it is without doubt that his handling of the subject and the powerful presentation of the story is par excellence. Even the narration aspect takes you to a real high and with some mind blowing background score added with some deftly handled editing, the technical part of the film has surpassed even the prequel. The script was written with a tight grip and it has blended very well with some master screenplay. The cinematography has been able to capture the emotions at its best intensity and the locations were captured very well and so was the presentation of the characters. Amitabh has yet again proved that he is still the ruling icon to portray enigmatic roles and has come up with a powerhouse performance. Equally good was Abhishek who competed with his dad at every frame and gave a good show. Aishwarya has overshadowed her pretty looks with some classy performance and her peak performance comes while performing the sentimental scenes. The supporting cast were not to be left behind as they gave a tough opposition to the lead cast, Sayaji Shinde was superb, Govind Namdeo was too good, Rajesh was excellent, Upyendra Limaye was a show stealer, Dilip Prabhawalkar was a revelation. Tanishaa looked apt in the household role and Supriya Pathak gave a memorable performance. The others were good in their own aspects.
Conclusion:
The movie has been made with such precision that those who have not seen the prequel can also connect to the sequel. This is not just a political thriller but also an equally emotional tale of feelings and relationships. Both the first and second half of the film was spaced out with equal pace and inertia and there is not a single dull moment throughout its running. Though the story line was simple and straight, the way it has been carried from start to finish was highly mastered and the film could well be joining the league of super hits in the time to come. The pace of the movie might come across as mild but it sets you in the right mood to go through the various emotions.
