Phir Aayi Hasseen Dillruba

Kanika plz stop writing plz. This is an utter garbage. Twists are hillarious. You just gave first flop for Hirani saheb, and your writings are not upto the mark. Plz mark these words. You should take a break.

And i had no expectations from taapsee coz she has very narrow range of acting. But vikrant you should skip these kind of roles coz you just climbed your peak with 12th fail. Dont add black marks with these type of trashes. Sunny kaushal is treat to eyes irrespective of holes of story. Entire movie is just like a cartoon which is similar to stories we imagine in our childhood. Its a total swim clz. Thank god i just passed minimum character limit 😪

Phir Aayi Hasseen Dillruba relocates from the sleepy town of Jwalapur to the city of Agra while attempting to recapture its predecessor's dark, edgy charm. Written by Kanika Dhillon and directed by Jayprad Desai, the movie has all the ingredients to be a thrilling ride, and with the addition of a formidable new adversary and obsessed lovers, the stakes are significantly raised. A dogged cop, Montu (Jimmy Shergill) is hot on Rani and Rishu's heels, spelling doom for the duo because he is the slain ex-lover Neel's chacha, making the case personal for him.

Despite the initial promise, the execution is lacking, and the script tries to pack too much, resulting in illogical decisions and unconvincing outcomes. The film's focus shifts from the intriguing mystery of the first instalment to a more straightforward chase, diluting the suspenseful elements that made the original compelling. The cat-and-mouse game between Rani, Rishu, and the police becomes predictable, lacking the edge-of-the-seat tension that Vinil Mathew's outing delivered.

While there are moments of intrigue, the narrative often meanders, bogged down by unnecessary subplots (including murders) and convoluted twists. The screenplay's attempts at clever dialogue and literary allusions (the pulpy crime novel background, a highlight of the first film) often feel over the top this time around, detracting from the overall impact. At 132 minutes, the film moves at a decent pace, but the plot points leave many questions unanswered.

Vikrant Massey shines as Rishu, with a commendable character arc from the first film. Taapsee Pannu brings a captivating energy to her role, although her performance in the first instalment was more subtly nuanced. Sunny Kaushal is decent as the meek but intense Abhimanyu. The two actors' on-screen dynamic is compelling. Aditya Srivastav and Jimmy Shergill are underutilized, despite Shergill's impactful scenes. The cinematography is a redeeming factor, capturing the essence of Agra.

Phir Aayi Hasseen Dillruba is engaging, if not awe-inspiring, and has some entertaining moments. While it maintains a stylish aesthetic and a talented cast, the film ultimately lacks the originality and suspense required to truly captivate audiences. With some tighter writing and more focused storytelling, this could have been a memorable sequel.

Rani Kashyap is now living in Agra as a beautician while Rishi is on the run. She has trapped Abhimanyu and Rishi is being tormented by his landlady, Poonam. As Rani and Rishi find it hard to meet as they evade the cops, enters Mrityunjay Paswan. The unsolved murder of Neel has already pricked his uncle Mrityunjay and he has vowed to catch Rishi and Rani. As the case gets all too personal, once again Dinesh Pandit's work comes to the aid of the couple but this time, there is Abhimanyu too. Will the couple continue to evade the cops or get caught, forms rest of the story.

There were several good ideas sprinkled all over and I cannot deny that. The problem is those stuff doesn't come together to shape this attempt into a good film. I had issues with the previous film as well and definitely did not keep any expectations from the sequel, even then the uneven writing that keeps on getting way too ambitious, ends up as a tedious watch. Sunny Kaushal's Abhimanyu is half baked and though his backstory is revealed eventually, there is barely any chemistry between him and Tapsee's Rani to make this work. Neither there is an attempt to showcase how Rani traps Abhimanyu. He just loves her as much as Rishi does and that becomes the justification.

A lot of cinematic liberties have been taken and it definitely sounded good on paper. On screen, it all falls flat as the entire investigation is presented to be weak. There is only so much actors can do to dramatically elevate the drama. This is what I meant about the good things sprinkled all over and these individual moments definitely look good. With a better screenplay, probably this one had a chance to be decent instead it leaves the actors with very little help and ends up wasting couple of good ideas which deserved better execution.

Phir Aayi Haseen Dillruba is a sequel that struggles to replicate the intrigue and complexity of its predecessor. While the film attempts to delve deeper into the twisted world of its characters, it ultimately falls short in delivering a satisfying narrative.

The sequel picks up where the first film left off, with Rani (Taapsee Pannu) and Rishu (Vikrant Massey) entangled in a web of deceit and manipulation. However, the novelty of the first film's plot twists is replaced by a sense of déjà vu. The constant back-and-forth between reality and illusion becomes tiresome, and the audience is left questioning the purpose of revisiting this convoluted story.

While Taapsee Pannu maintains her magnetic screen presence, the characters of Rani and Rishu feel underdeveloped. Their motivations remain unclear, and their actions often defy logic. The supporting cast, including Sunny Kaushal, fails to leave a lasting impression, further weakening the overall impact of the film.

The film's plot is convoluted and often defies credibility. The constant twists and turns become more of a gimmick than a suspenseful element. The screenplay struggles to balance the complex narrative with character development, resulting in a disjointed viewing experience.

Phir Aayi Haseen Dillruba had the potential to explore the psychological depths of its characters and offer a fresh perspective on the themes of love, obsession, and betrayal. Unfortunately, the film opts for shock value and convoluted plot twists over substance. While it may entertain some viewers with its over-the-top drama, it ultimately fails to deliver a satisfying cinematic experience.

At first let me clear, this is not that much impactful sequel as compared to it's previous installment. But I will definitely like to recommend to those people who liked it's first part, they will enjoy it for some extend. The storyline continues and 2 important characters added to the main storyline. Sunny's performance was really great and perhaps the best in this entire show but Jimmy Shergill is less utilized of course. They had potential to use Jimmy Shergill as such a badass character but writing was definitely weak for that character. Retro Songs and Music was perfectly blended in it and the screenplay of course feels quite rich and colorful to watch.

Overall some kissing scenes are present and the subject of the content doesn't make it safe to for go with the family audiences. So 6 out of 10 Stars from my side and I'll consider it as an average one time watch without applying any logics.
