Dagdi Chawl 2

Is any one interested to know about Arun Gawli being from bombay i heard about him like heard about other gangsters. The movie is very poor don't know if the incident is true incidents of imagination of the maker. Very poorly executed bad direction poor acting unnecessary songs which does not fit with the continuity. Watching movie makes one feel to make arun gawli aka daddy fondly called by people don't know why a Hero. It has been sadly observed many other gangsters if not through movies but even media are made out to be hero's and shockingly even patriotic except one from Dubai, like whom every other gangster wanted to be but failed. In the climax scene gawli is given a dialogue while interacting with the one in Dubai saying I am not anti national like you to leave the country, that was some thing that made me puke. How can the entire team making this below average movie can be so disgustingly confident of making one criminal hero patriotic against other only because the other belong to a certain community & was only gangster in position no others all those whom movies and media is making hero was able to reach.

The casting completely failed the hero look malnourished, impossible to believe any one like him going in the criminals place and thrash his goons alone, markarand fitted the bill of gawli since he is equally ugly and skinny like the real gawli. Thankfully I did not watch it in theatre saved my money.

Dagdi Chawl 2 (2022) : Brief Review -

The rocks of Chawl collapse due to the abstract structure of outdated gangster theories. Marathi cinema was having a gala time from 2014 to 2016, with many movies becoming box office hits and popular amongst the masses. Post Duniyadari, we had films like Timepass, Lai Bhari, Lokmanya, Timepass 2, Natsamrat, Classmates, and Sairat doing good business at the box office. Chandrakant Kanse's 'Dagdi Chawl' (2015) came as a surprise because Marathi cinema had not seen a massy gangster film on such a scale, and the box office success in this genre was rare too. Of course, the curiosity about Arun Gawli's story amongst audiences helped the film collect good numbers despite its average content. This time, we've lost our curiosity, and our average content and storytelling are stuck in the same frame of mind as in 2015. Kanse's gangster drama is a proper sequel, even though we know the fact that the fictional amount of writing is greater than the actual story and characters. The rocks of the chawl aren't concrete at all. It's a weak script already, but the excessive use of outdated gangster drama theories burys the entire wall even before it is built. Surya and Daddy's friendship was known to everybody, and even a KG student knows the enemity between these two will never make sense. How did Kanse even think that those 2 decades old tricks will work now? The days of Satya, Vaastav and the Shootout Series are gone. We can't call them contemporary films by any chance. Dagdi Chawl may have worked 10 years ago, in 2012, when Marathi cinema was missing hard-core action mass films. For 2022, it's a big mistake. Everything is a letdown, from the performances to the writing, screenplay, music, and direction. Only that background score works. SHAMBHO...!!! Arjun Rampal's "Daddy" was much better than this.

RATING - 4/10*

By - #samthebestest.

Terrible, atrocious, rotten would be an understatement. Amateurish. Awful. Appalling. Detestable.

The actors (leading as well as supporting), director, screenwriter, dialogue writer, editor, continuity... almost all departments need to attend a refresher course.

Sheer waste of time. Disappointing. Lacks any depth, is not at all exciting, not much of a story... They even goofed up the simple comedy & fight scenes.

After some time, it becomes a drag. I actually fast-forwarded to finish it.

Please save your precious time and patience and read a book or even nap. It will do you good. Actually.

Phew!!!
