A Sequel to the terrific Ab Tak Chhappan, 'Ab Tak Chhappan 2' is a predictable fare, that demanded a stronger script. But, Nana Patekar reprises his role of Inspector Sadhu Agashe, Spell-Bindingly. His performance left me speechless.
'Ab Tak Chhappan 2' Synopsis: Sadhu Agashe returns to Mumbai Police & takes up the task to end crime in the city. But not everyone is who they seem to be & Sadhu has to do whats right, no matter what.
'Ab Tak Chhappan 2' has an interesting first-hour & to a large extend, the sequences work. The second-hour is a downer & very, very predictable. This sequel isn't without its moments, but they aren't many, sadly.
The Screenplay is clichéd to the core & offers nothing new in the cop-gangster genre. Aejaz Gulab's Direction is alright. Cinematography is shaky. Editing is crisp. Action-Sequences are ordinary.
If there is something remarkable in 'Ab Tak Chhappan 2', its Nana. The legend delivers a towering performance as the bad-ass cop, overshadowing absolutely everyone on-screen from start to end. He's in top-form!
On the whole, 'Ab Tak Chhappan 2' isn't entirely convincing, but Nana is. Watch it for him!

This the sequel of super hit movie AB tak chappan(2004).this movie released today in 27 feb 2015. After on decade. but this is so bad to say this is the worst than original movie.
No story,no song,no dialog ,no good sound, no good acting , no good location, no good starting and no good end .It is completely time and money wast movie with great actor NAAN PATEKAR.

The one more thing is that there is no slang use in this movie. because all slang deleted by censer of India. so go watch this movie and wast your priceless time.

Ab Tak Chhappan 2- The sequence of bad sequels continues with Ab Tak Chhappan 2. I cant understand why sequels in Bollywood are made by an entirely different team. In case of Ab Tak Chhappan 2 not just the director but producer also (Ram Gopal Verma was the producer for the first one) are different. An the new team has done a pretty bad job. Made a movie which you cant say bad , but too much boring (with just a running time of 1hr 46min , still boring) and forgettable. There is nothing much to say about it, movie has a plan story of a cop who is called back by Home Minister to tackle the raising gang war in the city. So Sadhu Agashe (Nana Patekar) comes and tackle with it in his own way. There was no twist (m not counting the predictable one) just plan chase sequence not so interesting too. And there was Bad camera work (like what we have seen in DEPARTMENT and ATTACK OF 26/11 with too much awkward angels , looks like the director is inspired from RGV but surely doesn't have the direction qualities of him). Wait there was bad background score too , which sometimes become romantic and sometimes become too loud , like two different people working together , and in both case it only makes the movie worst. Nana Patekar was sleep walking the role , he doesn't get much to do with his character , (although i liked the first half an hour of the film in which father and son relationship was the center of attraction) . Gul Panag was too load in the film , you always wonder why the hell she was screaming. And Ashutosh Rana mostly works as a comic relief in the film. This movie will not gonna make feel its presence at the box office , should not have been made with such carelessness . Only die hard fans of Nana Patekar (mark the word 'Die Hard' as i think everyone is a genuine fan of him) can try it that also not at all in theaters.. 4.5/10 By ANuP APu ANuP
Has its few moments, dialogues and Nana Patekar, but nothing path breaking compared to the part one.
Following the current questionable trend of making weak sequels of some well made films, here is another of those attempts made by a different team trying to en-cash the cult status of its original released a decade back in 2004.
To mention its few merits, Nana Patekar once again proves to be the major pull in the film playing Sadhu Agashe, the encounter specialist and it all begins on a promising note exactly from where they left it open-ended in the original. The initial 20 minutes set the mood in with few notable punchy dialogues and an energetic background score coming at the right moments. But as soon as Nana joins the force again and begins his encounter missions as per his own questionable style, the film goes back to all routine standards with nothing new to offer to the viewers in terms of storyline, execution or performances.
The camera-work awfully tries to imitate RGV in an amateurish manner throughout the film and Nana Patekar starts sleepwalking in his act unexpectedly post the enjoyable initial moments. All the cuss words in its dialogues get muted as per the new guidelines of the Censor board, brutally hurting their final impact quite annoyingly and the climax doesn't turn out to be anything exciting or innovative at all as compared to its impressive original (though written with all good intentions against the corrupt politicians).
In short, debutant director Aejaz Gulab fails to materialize on the ground already there and delivers a below average film with only a few worth mentioning features namely the well written lines, background score and action sequences. However I strong feel that its theme music should have been used repeatedly in the backdrop instead of playing the unnecessary variations diluting the overall effect.
Moreover with just OK performances coming from seasoned actors such as Vikram Gokhale, Ashutosh Rana, Dilip Prabhawalkar, Raj Zutshi and Gul Panag, AB TAK CHHAPPAN 2 (a song-less thriller) can surely be rated as a great opportunity missed by the team to move one step ahead than its part one despite having the same Sadhu Agashe in the cast.

Ab Tak Chhappan (2004) is a movie that stands all by itself; it doesn't need a sequel nor can a proper sequel be made out of what was left at the end of the film. So even if this is a daunting effort, the tediousness will bore you.
Now, the plot of this much-anticipated sequel is hauntingly similar to its prequel. All-star encounter specialist Sadhu Agashe (Patekar) comes out of retirement and rebuilds his reputation as a maverick. The sidekicks are new, though the attention-seeker that was played by Yashpal Sharma then is now played by Ashutosh Rana in a seemingly absurd role. The same phone conversations with an overseas gangster, collateral damage, raw language, camera work, and Patekar's distinct talking style are all reminiscent of the brilliant movie we adored a decade ago, but twenty minutes later, the narration fails to arrest our senses. Slowly though, the tension picks up, but soon fades away. We end up feeling displeased.
Had most of the previous cast brought back, this could have been made into a much better thriller, but given that Agashe is fighting the bureaucracy this time, all is built on stinking stones of predictability. The scattered sequences and bad editing further adds to the damage done to the original film. Moreover, the climax goes slightly overboard, dealing and being priggish about the current state of politics.
Patekar is brilliant as always, and he does a splendid work. Rana is wasted and I wonder what Gul Panag as a crime reporter was doing in the film. She barely had a role to play and is only found shouting.
BOTTOM LINE: If you loved the 2004 film, you may give it a try, for it is an average thriller. Otherwise, skipping wouldn't be harmful.
