"Vijay Dinanath Chahuan", the name in itself is big for Bollywood and for every movie lover related to that era. After 22 years he is back again with the same vengeance in his eyes, to prove it yet again that this name can never be forgotten!
Its almost a remake of the previous one, though its not an exact copy but still revolves around the same story line with few alterations here and there with the characters and incidents happening within. The director has managed well to produce the same dish with different garnishing keeping in mind the taste of the current audience.
The movie runs for around 2 hour 50 minutes but still keeps you engaging for most of the part due to its fast pace and powerful performances. Almost everyone is able to deliver there part well in the movie. Before the film hitting the theater, there were lots of gossips and speculation of Hrithik stepping into the shoes of Big B and being able to do justice to this powerful name. Take my words, he did it and delivered it powerfully in his own way. He is different from the previous, the way he walks, stares, delivers his dialogues, fights his opponents, but yet manages to maintain the trends set earlier. "Vijay Dinanath Chahuan" is never complete without "Kancha" and this time its played by none other then Sanju Baba. He does a great justice to his character and takes it up to a new level with his fearsome looks and superb dialogue delivery. Rishi Kappor as Lala was awesome and was nice to see him playing a negative role with such an ease. Though Priyanka didn't have much to do but was good in delivering her parts and the way she is portrayed reminds me of her role in Kaminey (Sahid Kapoor fame). Wait! how could we forget Chameli (Katrina Kaif), it might just be an item number for 5 minutes but was like salt and pepper on top of the actual dish!

On the neagatives, for some the length of the movie might bite a bit and also proper representation of human emotion was missing at places. For those who have watched the previous one, are definitely going to miss "Krishnan Iyer" (Mithun Chakraborty) with this one.
It's a story of revenge and is shot beautifully with gala action sequences which acts as the driving force for this movie. Comparison is obvious but you could enjoy it more once you stop comparing each and every part of this movie with the previous one. Songs are melodious and are better when you watch them on screen with Chikni Chameli almost being able to set fire on the stage.
On a whole, its a grand movie with lots of revenge and action in it and making it a movie for almost all segments of audiances. If you think whats new in the story, go watch it and you will definitely get a refreshing experience by the time you come out of the theater!
Rating: 3.5 / 5
