Indian 2 review
“Kamal Haasan delivers a strong performance as always, but interestingly, it is Siddharth who has a very meaty role in this film. The actor has delivered; he and Kamal Haasan match up in their scenes together. Rakul Preet Singh and Priya Bhavani Shankar have been given some impactful dialogues, though their screen time is not too much.”
“Writer Sujatha is sorely missed in this film as he was integral to the 1996 Indian. His story and dialogue writing are unmatched and Indian 2, unfortunately, is not a patch on the first film when it comes to these aspects. AR Rahman had also orchestrated a fantastic BGM and songs for Indian, which Anirudh doesn’t match up to in Indian 2,” it also read.
