Arjun Rampal puts up a great show as well. Powerful, strong and riveting, Vidya Balan gives a performance which is definitely worth watching multiple times.
#Kahaani 2 plot movie
And the way CSA is dealt with in the movie is good, but not moving enough perhaps. While I was with a theatreful of people laughing along at those subtleties, I felt like it might be taking the seriousness away from the issue of child sexual abuse. The director also flavours the second half with subtle humour in the midst of intense moments. While Sujoy Ghosh with his magical attention to detail has scripted out what was meant to be an amazing narrative, the second half drags, and is not as entertaining.
But the second half turns out to be slightly off track.
The first half is gripping, and 100 percent entertaining. He is entirely convincing as an inspector who has been transferred to a small town and is waiting for a promotion so that he along with his family could shift back to the city. 'Hot', I'm sure is the correct terminology here. The movie also has Inspector Inderjit, played by Arjun Rampal. Two of the most startling moments in the film lose all their shock factor if you've already watched the trailer, and that's sad. This is one of those movies for which the trailer is a curse. The first half of the movie gives you all the possible thrills and chills as Durga Rani Singh sets out in a mission to rescue a child from a possible abuser. The movie revolves around child sexual abuse. Confusing enough? You will have to watch the movie to find out how this plot plays out. There is a also a parallel life she leads as Vidya Sinha, who has a daughter named Mili. Kahaani 2 is set in Kolkata and is the story of Durga Rani Singh, played by Vidya Balan, who has been accused of kidnapping a 6-year-old called Mili, and murdering her grandmother.
