Review
With such a complex storyline, Khuda Haafiz Chapter 2 is thrilling and emotional. The movie sometimes makes you feel angry and sometimes is a tear-jerker. The story points out some of the important issues of our society like the rape of juvenile kids, abduction, and most important the misuse of authority in power.
The film does not start with the typical action sequences, it makes the audience feel connected with the characters and their stories. And when the action starts, it’s in the rawest form with some ferocious scenes. The cinematographer, Jitan Harmeet Singh, does a commendable job at capturing some of the best action shots.
With some really powerful dialogues, Jammwal has done a great job at portraying the character of a common man who fights against the system for the sake of his family and for something as grotesque as the tragedy which followed them. The character questions the law and order and the misuse that authority in power exercises in the case of criminals.
Sheeba Chaddha who plays the role of Thakurji, the villain, does a brilliant job when it comes to acting. She acts as a strong individual who shines throughout the film. As a female antagonist, which is very uncommon in Bollywood, she has managed to break a lot of stereotypes about female roles in movies.
Conclusion
The movie is definitely a surprise for people who had no expectations for the film. It might not live up to a lot of expectations of the audience, especially the action lovers, but it manages to do a decent job. It talks about the struggles of a common man in a world where everything is controlled by money. As for the execution of the Khuda Hafiz: Chapter 2, there is no doubt that it could have been done a little better.
