Director Abhinav Kashyap positioned a fearless cop in rural India to challenge the vile criminals with the South Indian cinema inspired over-the-top action, item songs, goofy humor and dance moves. Salman Khan owned the character of Chulbul Pandey, the quintessential cinematic hero who rises at every occasion and dances at every opportunity. In all its ridiculousness, 'Dabangg' was an entertainer that brought a welcome change to the mass-appealing action genre. Little did Kashyap know that he would set off a wave of the South-Indian inspired films that took everything to another degrading level. Since there was no stopping the craze for the Robin hood Pandey, Arbaaz Khan took over the direction of the sequel and although it is quite obvious that he should refrain from any such future endeavors, Dabangg 2 retains some qualities that made its predecessor such a blockbuster. These qualities are namely dialogues and Salman Khan. Chulbul Pandey has been transferred to Kanpur, a city infested with the cunning unlawfulness of Bacha bhai (Prakash Raaj). While at home, he has light moments with his father, Pandeyji (Vinod Khanna), Makkhi (Arbaaz Khan) and of course, the wife Rajjo (Sonakshi Sinha). The funnier moments though, are with the Police force that jokes, dances and reacts to trivial questions. Bacha bhai needs to maintain a good image in public on the eve of elections and therefore, for the first half of the movie, he mostly ignores Pandey's quest to eliminate crime in Kanpur. His brother, Genda (Deepak Dobriyal) confronts Pandey briefly in a memorable stand-off that triggers Bacha's pursuit of revenge on Pandey. Till their final confrontation of mortal kombat, both vengeful Bacha bhai and Chulbul Pandey stroll through a plot-less, aimless street that is the result of Arbaaz Khan's involvement in film-making. Meanwhile, the burden of providing laughter and engagement is upon Salman Khan's shoulders and he can only go that far by himself without support from any of the film's aspects. As it turns out, Arbaaz Khan made it simple enough for himself. He replicated some elements of Dabangg that pleased the masses, song by song and scene by scene. That left the script, story, characterization, cinematography, screenplay and direction as an afterthought to signing up Kareena Kapoor for the train-wreck of an item number that was Fevicol. A song every 15 mins just leaves the audience in frustration as the plot moves an inch towards the cliff. Even Munni and Rahat Fateh Ali Khan couldn't save us from the boredom that the crudely choreographed songs blatantly outshone the trifling music by Sajid-Wajid. The characters who became memorable in Dabangg are now written with no bearing for evolution and the potential that such a star-cast could provide, goes to sheer waste. Prakash Raaj is an outstanding villain. As Jaykant Shikre in 'Singham', his evil was both cunning and powerful. Not to forget, his superlative comic timing. As Bacha bhai, his talent is wasted when the opportunity laid a fine platform for a memorable character like Chedi Singh. Perhaps that is where Abhinav Kashyap's direction is missed the most. Even though Chulbul Pandey seems like the indefatigable, shrewd cop who will remain a step ahead of his nemesis, the villain's character brings the balance to the film and keeps the audience engaged in the plot. But it all went wrong here. Deepak Dobriyal is delightful in his brief role and Vinod Khanna is hilarious as the gullible father. It is indeed difficult to ascertain whether Arbaaz Khan is a worse actor or director and let's just put it this way, that there are far better newcomers to choose from than Sonakshi Sinha. The Police brigade seemed to enjoy the film the most and one can easily tell. They provide the witty one-liners and jarring dances that make this style of cinema appealing to the masses. Upon Pandey's inquiry about the nation's worrisome future, a constable's opinion is truly hilarious; “Country on deathbed Sir, full kidney phail Sir.” Alas, that is all that the movie has to offer to even make it a shadow of Kashyap's Dabangg. It entertains in similar fashion but offers nothing new or refreshing. Salman Khan is noticeably bulkier with minimal movement of arms, legs and neck. It really is time for him to wear one size bigger now. Yet, his dialogue delivery, expressions and persona of being the fearless hero that saves every day are what make Dabangg 2 bearable. There is no other saving grace unfortunately and it sets yet another example why this genre of movies is decaying rapidly. Hopefully, producers realize that the opening week collections alone do not decide the fate of a film. 150 Cr may have sent them laughing to the bank but Dabangg 2 has done very little for its cast, its audience and the genre of masala movies. - 6.20 on a scale of 1-10.

Dabangg 2 was a feel-good popcorn entertainment which had SALMAN KHAN written all over it. Chulbul Pandey (Salman Khan) has been transferred to Kanpur from LalGanj and is happily settled with Rajjo(Sonakshi SInha) along with step- father(Vinod Khanna) and brother(Arbaaz Khan). Things turns Topsy-turvy when he steps into the way of Cheede's singh brother Baccha Singh (Prakash Raj). What follows next is cold war between the two and how they fight for the survival. First time director , Arbaaz Khan does a decent job in keeping you entertained but falls flat when it comes to story , screenplay and most importantly direction. If you have seen Dabanng , there is bound to be high expectation from this one but you feel little bit disappointed. Uneccessary inclusion of songs , less-impacting climax fight scene will make you gorge for more. Also , the supremely talented Prakash Raj is wasted here. He could have been given more meatier role. The cinematography is excellent. Art direction is eye-catching. Background score relishes with the film. Action scenes are choreographed gallantly. In fact, it is one of the best action movie of 2012. Music by Sajid-Wajid is decent but not great."Pandey Ji" " Fevicol Se" is pick of the lot. Coming to performances, it is Salman Khan who gives in a knock-out performance with his quick-witted one liners, charming attitude , romantic avatar , shows off his well-sculpted torso without inhibitions. If you have adored the character of Chulbul Pandey in Dabanng , you will love him in Dabanng 2. He is simply outstanding. Sonaskshi Sinha is passable. Vinod Khanna surprises you. Arbaaz Khan is just about OK. Dabanng 2 had potential to make it big but was saddened by weak direction. However, one makes who makes sure you sit right through the film is Salman Khan. He is surely darling of masses. Good 3/5

Director Arbaaz khan tried his best to take utmost care of abhinav kashyap’s baby, but as one says “a step-father can never replace a father” If you overlap the reel of dabang over this sequel, and play it… u will find just the slightest of jerks. Heard Salman Khan has worked really hard to get back into this character (the only effort visible to me, that he changed his lucky bracelete with a red string….. uffffff…now that’s tough) But these points are no match to the ‘seetiis’ and ‘taaliis’ inside the cinema hall. Watch it for the Nicely Crafted Fight Sequences…. For Bebo’s fevicol number…for Prakash Raj… n offcourse for the Pied Piper of Indian Cinema ‘Salman Khan’.. But i would still prefer to watch Dabang twice….than Dabang-2  

Dabangg 2 (Movie Review) ONE LINER: Kamaal Karte Ho Pandey Ji..!! EXPECTATIONS: Very less movies…  

Dabangg 2 (Movie Review) ONE LINER: Kamaal Karte Ho Pandey Ji..!! EXPECTATIONS: Very less movies has such great expectations, After a success DABANGG , DABANGG2 could not go wrong. So High high high expectations..And the hype or craze of movie was mindblowing. Altough I was feeling that this movie will be just a good one. Lets see what I found out. VIEWS: 1. Firstly the movie comes full to the hype and expectations and am happy that my thinking became wrong. History is bound to be created with each single day as it a non holiday Movie. 2. Arbaaz Khan took the movie where it was left in first and he has taken it to a new level totally and has delievered what the team of DABANGG2 has promised it to be. 3. It’s all and all Salman Khan in Dabangg 2. And that is the major plus of the movie like DABANGG or DABANNG2 .His Character CHULBUL PANDEY is just a evergreen character. 4. Relations have been shown beautifully. 5. Songs are not to the extent of first part but still they are awesome in the movie. 6. Start of the movie means starting credits are awesomely shown with dabangg glimpsesd. The start of the movie is not very great but after 15 minutes or so the movie starts rising and it remains rised till the very end credits. And it’s not a total comedy. Emotional and serious scenes are awesome. Few scenes are quite hilarious. 7. The is not a single moment where the pace drops or speed lackens.. 8. Overall it's a great family movie with full top notch action, comedy, massy and all what a total ENTERTAINER should have.. STORY

A Hard Core Action Masala Entertainer. Let me Clear One thing, there is nothing new in Dabangg 2. Ofcourse, It is sequal to Dabangg, but also similar to Dabangg. If something is watchable, Its Salman Khan Action Pack Scenes. Movie has no new Story, we have seen similar thing in Dabangg, Singham

It is an excellent film. Just don't expect much from the story as it is very simple and sort but while watching you will not get bored even once. The comedy is fantastic, action is fantastic and above all Salman is Fantastic. No other actor can do this role justice than Salman. Fevicol Se was fun to watch on the big screen but liked Panday JI song more. The direction was good as well. This film is perfect for the Christmas holidays. Go watch it with your family and have fun.
