Bajirao Singham is back, this time with more élan. The second instalment for the Rohit Shetty directorial Singham, had everybody grooving to 'Aata Majhi Satakli' feat Yo Yo Honey Singh. Apart from the catchy track, the movie kept the pace with an intriguing plot about uncovering the roots of corruption. Based on the reality of life in metropolitans, the movie evolves around a corrupt political party trying to form the government and in the opposition, an honest cop.
The star cast included Kareena Kapoor as Avni, who plays Bajirao's love interest, Ajay Devgn as Singham himself and veteran actors like Anupam Kher who portrays a morally upright politician.
The movie begins with GuruJi (Anupam Kher) introducing his team of young politicians to stand the elections. Enter hilarious villains - BabaJi, the rapist Baba who indulges in saving heaps of black money to find elections through his alliance with an MLA. His worshippers show the modern day man, whose eaten away by any fakester who uses tactics to sit on the throne of divinity.
The plot gets running with Singham working in Mumbai and the trials he faces trying to challenge the system. The punch in the movie is the "singham slap" which could make a person spin. Although Ajay's performance seems a bit dull as compared to the previous instalment in the franchise, the movie makes up for that with his over enthusiastic team starring Daya (yep, CID fame) and the follow up "Daya, darwaza tod!"
Kareena's role only adds to the eye candy in the movie and throws the movie a bit off track. A love story angle in a serious flick sounds a bit uncalled for. Barring these loopholes, Singham Returns manages to be India's highest grosser, passing Salman's Kick.
Flare Verdict: The script is very strong and the actors do justice to their roles. The role of the Mumbai Police comes out heroically. Although, we find Ajay tired and exhausted throughout. To make up for the loss of energy there, we have the over bubbly Kareena as Lady Singham whose more into food than Singham in the movie! On the whole, we expected a more powerful portrayal by the protagonist. The plot lives up to its predecessor.
Flare Rating: 3.5 out of 5!
