Evaluate by: Russel D’Silva
In all equity, the primary Bhool Bhulaiyaa will get a a lot better rep than it in all probability deserves, at the least in response to me. It is nowhere close to the identical league as one in all iconic comedy Director Priyadarshan’s higher movies, and reality be instructed, lacks a bit when it comes to horror or comedy for a horror comedy, primarily clicking as a result of Akshay Kumar and Vidya Balan rising leaps and bounds above the script, and an enormous, neat, pre-climax twist earlier than a time folks had easy accessibility to South originals to recognized what they had been entering into with the remake. So, whereas many is perhaps on the fence a few sequel arriving 15 years later and having to stay as much as perceived lofty requirements of its predecessor, the truth is that Bhool Bhulaiyaa 2 merely must get its horror and comedy parts extra evened out, extra in sync and that is half the job performed proper there. Effectively it does that, after which some, with the Kartik Aaryan, Kiara Advani, Tabu, Rajpal Yadav and Sanjay Mishra starrer additionally boasting a decent script for essentially the most half and a good higher pre-climax twist this time round.
So, are you enthusiastic about what to look at this weekend or what to look at this week and questioning whether or not Bhool Bhulaiyaa 2 is price your time? Scroll down for my full Bhool Bhulaiyaa 2 film overview…
What’s it about

What’s sizzling
First issues first: Kartik Aaryan is Bhool Bhulaiyaa 2 and Bhool Bhulaiyaa 2 is Kartik Aaryan as her outshines Akshay Kumar from the primary half, delivering his greatest act but, toeing a number of tight ropes of comedy, emotion, romance, nervousness, swag and dance like a professional. He reminds every person how a strong business script and a robust main position, backed by an excellent business actor can provide stated actor the scope to show their complete vary greater than in all probability an artwork of middle-of-the-road movie ever may.
Kiara Advani provides extra promise to her burgeoning skill-set, holding her personal regardless of a barely under-cooked half, whereas Tabu is given the meatiest position after Kartik, really serving because the catalyst of the plot, and no prizes for guessing how her pedigree chews it right down to the bone. Coming to the script, it inculcates so many a number of plot gadgets that it may all have gone horribly improper, so kudos to Farhad Samji and Aakash Kaushik for retaining it ironed out, non-complicated and tightly wound for essentially the most half, aided additional by Anees Bazmee’s greatest directorial work in years.
A particular shout out for Aakash Kaushik’s rib-tickling punchlines that fly thick and quick from begin to finish sans any pauses. One other shout out, too, for the near-impeccable make-up, particularly how effortlessly younger they make Tabu look within the flashback parts. The massive twist can also be fairly sudden and satisfying as is the appropriate stability struck between horror and comedy, plus the few albeit genuinely chilling moments that intensify the horror quotient.
The icing on the cake is how properly outlined each different character, massive or small, is, and the way properly each supporting actor performs their half – Rajpal Yadav, Sanjay Mishra, Ashwini Kalsekar and Rajesh Sharma taking advantage of some terrific traces and eventualities with their elegant comedian timing. Different excessive factors embrace Manu Anand’s A-class cinematography, the commendable VFX, lavish manufacturing design and Sandeep Shirodkar’s background rating that is essentially spooky or funky as required which collectively keep away from making the supernatural bits look cheesy in any method (regardless of a bomb not being spent on the technical departments).
What’s not
As satisfying because the pre-climax twist it, it is aftermath is a tad confounding and raises doubts over how issues pan out. The ultimate execution additionally leaves a barely underwhelming style within the mouth, particularly in comparison with all that precedes it. Pritam and Tanishk Bagchi’s music is an enormous letdown, with no tune, with the pressured exception of De Taali making a minor impression. As soon as once more, the modifying is a matter, with Bunty Nagi forgetting to snip about 20-25 minu from the movie.
BL Verdict
Regardless of some narrative lapses throughout the climax and its barely bitter aftertaste, Bhool Bhulaiyaa 2 is a really humorous, successfully chilling horror comedy, boasting a firecracker Kartik Aaryan in red-hot type, backed by the veteran Tabu doing what she does greatest, a decent script, Anees Bazmee’s greatest directorial work in years, a recreation supporting solid, and strong VFX, make-up and manufacturing values, making this one in all Indian cinema’s higher horror comedies and a particularly uncommon sequel that outdoes its predecessor in nearly each side. I am going with 3.5 out of 5 stars.
