A review by Mohan Lal Gupta
1 December, 2021 by Mohan Lal Gupta
Growing up, BaB was a fun joyride that many of us still remember for presenting the lovable and most anticipated pair of Abishek Bachchan and Rani Mukherji in addition to a good screenplay, story and not to forget hummable music that still resonates on some of our playlists. The question arises, was a sequel needed? In the last few years, we have witnessed many sequels that have failed to captivate our attention solely because of lack of a compelling story. BaB2 is no way different. Trying to cash in on a ‘once successful formula’ without taking into account that the audience has matured in the last decade or so, is the biggest flaw of filmmakers these days. Coming to the movie, and this is my personal opinion, the movie is just average. There are moments which are adorable and you enjoy and there are moments which give you a yawn. The earnest performance of Rani and Saif fail to compensate for the lack of a good script. Especially when the story is Aditya Chopra’s brainchild, you would have expected a better product. Saif and Rani do recreate their chemistry which we have loved in Hum Tum, Ta Ra Rum Pum and Thoda Pyaar Thoda Magic….there’s no doubt there. But despite the comic relief and a subtle romance, you’re left wishing for more. Sidhhant and Sharvari have a sparkling chemistry and a good screen presence but they can do justice to their character as much. It is a cake walk for a veteran like Pankaj Tripathi who is no different to any other character he has already played. BaB2 suffers from a weak script with a forgettable music, which is one of the biggest let downs of the movie. If you ask me, Rani Mukherji overshadows everyone in the movie with her acting. She is loud yet lovable, and she gets into the skin of Vimmi. Being an ardent Rani Mukherji fan, one might question my biasness towards her movies, but you cannot deny that she is an amazing actress who gives her 100% to the character she’s portraying despite a weak script. BaB2 is a disappointing second take which was unnecessary but was still made. While it does gift us with Saif and Rani’s pairing again and a few enjoyable moments, it is still a big let down.
