We don’t enter a Cinema Hall to watch Paintings, Photography, Slick Edits etc.īalaji Telefilms and Milan Luthria do nothing but successfully makes a fool out of you by showing you this film and en-cashing their brand. But we go to the Cinema Halls to watch Entertainment, Entertainment and Entertainment (As repeated in one of Milan Luthria’s earlier film The Dirty Picture). The camera work and production value of the film is outstanding. The Music of the film is just okay and doesn’t live in your brains for a longer period of time. You wonder why he had to make such a bad sequel of the original which is not 20% of what you have seen in the original. Milan Luthria as i mentioned earlier, Tries to take you for a ride Big Time and delivers nothing but a film which you have seen several times. I have heard audiences whispering (In cinemas) “Gangsters in 80’s looked Sissy?’. Imran Khan and Sonakshi Sinha in a still from the film Once Upon A Time In Mumbaai Dobara. Imran Khan doesn’t at all looks like a Gangster. Imran Khan and Sonakshi Sinha in a still from the film Once Upon A Time In Mumbaai Dobara. Why? Because Imran Khan is a face that looks good when he performs role that are Classy and Porche. Imran Khan is a perfect ‘Mis-Cast’ in this one. Sonakshi Sinha is beautiful and charming (No doubts), But given a poor film, She has a limited scope to perform and disappoints. This creates a rift between Shoaib and Aslam and results in the ultimate showdown between the mentor and legacy.Īkshay Kumar shines in the role of Shohaib. Slowly, but surely his attraction towards Yasmin goes onto becoming an obsession. Shohaib stumbles upon a young actress Yasmin (Sonakshi Sinha) so does Aslam both are immediately taken in by her freshness and beauty. He takes him under his wings and gradually Aslam becomes one of his favorites. He often visits the poor Muslim areas where he grew up and it is on one such visit that he meets Aslam (Imran Khan).
He only confidantes are his best friend Javed, who oversees his empire for him and his former lover Mumtaz (Sonali Bendre) who is now his closest friend. Shoaib is now a flamboyant, suave man who is feared and revered. His influence and power has spread right up to the Middle East today. Shohaib (Akshay Kumar) is now the ruling mafia king. Seen through the eyes of a police officer, the movie traces the changing face of the Mumbai underworld and how it all started. But this time, He and his writer Rajat Arora seem to have launched into this project backed by Balaji Motion Pictures with a faith in their own brilliance but call it their over confidence they both allow the squishy love triangle to take center stage in this sequel. The Lootera actor is good, as she invariably is, but has very little scope for showing off her talent.Milan Luthria has churned out some wonderful films in past such as Kachche Dhaage, Deewar, Once Upon A Time In Mumbaai and The Dirty Picture. Emraan Hashmi’s quest to outdo his mentor Mirza was effectively portrayed by the versatile actor whereas Imran is a total misfit as a gangster who prefers to stay loyal to his guardian Shoaib, even after getting beaten up by him in the climax for snatching away his ladylove Jasmine (Sonakshi Sinha). While Ajay was superlative as Sultan Mirza, Akshay as Shoaib, the new ruling mafiosi, is as overbearing as his character demands he be. The comparisons between Luthria’s two representations of the underworld and its ruling dons based in Mumbai are inevitable.

Considering Milan Luthria’s second instalment of his gangster flick has been riding high on good hype, Akshay Kumar’s star power and the fact that it’s a sequel to the 2010 hit film starring Ajay Devgn and Emraan Hashmi, I consciously made up my mind to enter the cinema hall with no preconceived notions. The Akshay Kumar-Imran Khan-Sonakshi Sinha starrer Once Upon A Time In Mumbai Dobaara is an excruciating experience. Milan Luthria’s lame attempt to recreate and better his original 2010 hit film bites the dust
