Dabangg 2

Cast: Salman Khan, Sonakshi Sinha, Arbaaz Khan, Vinod Khanna, Prakash Raj
Director: Arbaaz Khan
Ever experienced that family tradition, wherein all members get together during festival and order that ‘special’ dish from that ‘special’ shop which is patronized by them from years. And when they devour the dish together, the idea of enjoying it together is more important than the taste of the dish itself. Somewhere you desperately want each and every morsel to be ‘tasty’ and even if some (or most) are not, you don’t complain because you don’t want to kill the festival or expectations of the clan from the festival. Same is the case with Dabangg 2. Here Chulbul Pandey aka Salman Khan is that ‘special’ one which everyone has been waiting for, and the masses for whom this character has been created, so utterly want to enjoy it that they are actually enjoying it irrespective of the enjoyment available in bits and pieces in the movie irrespective of the movie in itself not being an enjoyable one. Large section of educated and thinking people who have not actually enjoyed the movie also ultimately have contributed to the box office collection and they cannot make excuses that they purchased the ticket because of exceeding expectation and/or absence of any other movie!
Undoubtedly, Salman currently is the golden boy. TV or movies, whichever media he chooses to play with, he comes across as a winner because of his unbelievable ‘connect’ with the audience. The movie happens to be a collection of dance and fight sequences, a desperate attempt by Arbaaz to generate ‘cetees’ of the masses and ensuring that his first directorial venture doesn’t fail, especially after the stupendous hit given by Danangg earlier.
