Kahaani 2



I wonder why this film got mediocre reviews from many sources. Kahaani 2 lives up to the Kahaani franchisee with a gripping story and strong narrative. I always feel that a film should tell you a story. This film is all about a best laid plot and wonderful execution in the direction. A story which has so many facets and they all come together to make an interesting watch. The characters are complete, the acting is mature and the script lives up to the originality of this story. 

A victim of sexual abuse decides to save another from the same peril. The effects of sexual abuse can be far reaching and sometimes can drive the life of the abused. Foregoing her personal life, Durga decides to honor her conscious and save a girl child from the dark black hole of molestation. This conviction gives us to a story acted out to perfection by Vidya Balan. Though the second half is predictable, the direction and the story keep you hooked. 




The clarity and confidence of Vidya's acting are the jewels in the crown of this story. Arjun Rampal surprised me, for I was contemplating a boring, passionless act by him. He has given a very convincing performance and shows promise. The direction and cinematography match to the theme and intensity of the plot making this film a great watch.

Rating : 4/5
