Mardaani 2

The boy played villain role as real life Psycho teen age boys and Rani's performance is Extraordinary in 2nd Half. Film is to the point.

A lot of uncomfortable emotions were triggered in me when I watched this movie. I am a survivor of mental, emotional, and physical abuse. I imagined my abuser in Sunny's shoes in the end.The ending gave me some relief.

A man does not understand what he does to a woman when he abuses her. It scars her for life. And even in this day and age, a woman who speaks up for herself or tries to be independent should be silenced and downtrodden. This is a despicable idea of most men that I don't think will ever leave this world.

Movies like this inspire women to be independent and that's how it should be. A dependent woman does not have a voice. So please, the next time you ask your daughter to give up her job to get married, think twice. Her independence is her strength. Every human being deserves their own self-respect and independence. A woman should never be at the mercy of a man.

In 2012, a 23 year old girl was raped and brutually assaulted in a moving bus in Delhi. In 2014 Badaun gang rape case sent panick waves across the country where two Dalit girls were gang raped continuously for two days, murdered and hung from a tree. In 2019, a female doctor was abducted from a toll plaza near Hyderabad raped and later her body was burnt. These few incidents have rocked the entire nation with widespread protest since government came under pressure, highlighted by media and I am just talking few here.. there are have been innumerable rape cases which have even gone unreported. We always wonder what goes into the mind of a rapist and this where Mardaani 2 comes into play.

Mardaani 2 is a cat-and-mouse game where a ruthless rapist and killer challenges Shivani Shivaji Roy to catch him after every murder and even gives her the clue on his next move

From the writer of Mardaani, Gopi Puhtran takes the director's seat this time. Like Mardaani which focussed on the drug racket and child trafficking, Mardaani 2 tells the true story of rape incidents which is very much existing in India. Hats off to him for creating niche drama with well-written screenplay that will keep glued on to the screen till the end. Cinematography is just about okay. Art direction is natural. Background score is bad which could have been better Writing was definitely better but I felt the character of Rani Mukerji was somehow always proactive in reading criminal's mind.

Editing adds crispiness to the pace. Mardaani belongs to queen of hearts - Rani Mukerji. The supremely talented actress is mind blowing with her punches and fiery dialogues. Vishal Jethwa will surprise you as the psychopath killer who thinks a woman should be shown no mercy when they cross their limit. He is definitely a talent to watch out for.

Mardaani 2 is not easy watch but it will expose the harsh reality of the current situation with a strong message. Go for it ... Very good 3.5/5

Mardaani is no Singham. Nor does it intend to become one. It is in many ways a realistic portrayal of how women or girls are still treated in our society- be she an IPS officer or a college goer. In no single shot, the director wants the protagonist to become a larger than life character and there lies the victory of the movie. However, as you expect, peoples respect for this movie has been subdued . Had this character been played by Akshay INDIA Kumar or Ajay Devgan or Ranbeer Singh, it would have been surely a blockbuster. Does not matter much, though. For us who crave for good Hindi movies, the second installment of the franchise brings fresh breeze, new rays hope. Rani Mukherjee is restrained in the lead role and her portrayal of the vulnerability even a female cop faces in her field of work lifts the spirit of the movie. In certain scenes, she is just unbeatable. Vishal Jethwa as the cold blooded killer and rapist just steals the show. He makes his character so believable that you actually start hating the character. All other characters do justice to their roles, however minute they are. Gopi Puthran creates a one of its kind Hindi serial killer movie with a brilliant panache. The way he restricts the emotional outflow of the movie deserves special mention. This is a must watch if you want a fresh breath amidst the mediocrity of the Hindi movies around. But be cautioned, this is not a War or your regular ego or emotion booster flick. Thumbs up to the brilliant effort in creating a spine chilling movie.

Just saw Mardaani 2. I am shaken and can't believe the horrors some girls have gone through in our society. It is one of the best movies of this year. Hats off to Rani Mukerji. She has given her heart and soul to the character of Shivani Shivaji Roy. The young actor who plays the villain is PHENOMENAL. Other actors also add life to their respective roles. The story keeps you on the edge of the seat throughout the film. Such films should be seen on big screen so that Indian producers come out with more such hard-hitting and thought-provoking films. STRONGLY RECOMMENDED.
