Exact Review:

We have a sequel that continues the story better. We see some old characters i.e. Tara Singh aka Sunny Deol, Sakeena aka Ameesh Patel with one more character from the original movie, which is "Jeete" played by Utkarsh Sharma.


The story is about post-independence where another war is at the door, and Pakistan and Indian Army are at the front to attack and defend. Tara Singh is a well-established character and so does Sunny Deol makes it possible to do it on-screen again, with a nostalgic handpump scene and lots of screaming.



Sakeena, has less role, just sobbing and supporting the family throughout which looks odd, it would have been better to give her some important fractions of scenes which would give her more engagement in her role.


Utkarsh Sharma has a lot to do with his character. His urge to find his father, enter the borderline, fight, disguise, and confront various enemies, is the work here. As we see hero, no movie can be completed with a heroine. That's when the entry of Muskaan happens in Pakistan, and things change in some romantic manner, the love angle is good, and gives a touch of romance in the movie.



Talking about the screenplay and story, yes it is a demanding story and the screenplay seems interesting, it is only about Tara Singh's shouts and Guns, bombs, tanks shelling and attacking. Hamid Iqbal played by Manish Wadhwa, portrays a strong character who has aggression, power, motive and force to stop Tara Singh. His grey character which also defines his nation's love is one who makes good time on-screen.


The songs are re-played reminding the original one from 2001, Ghar Aaja Pardesi, and has 2 to 3 songs. The BGM is nice and keeps a hopeful tone throughout the movie.


Technical Aspects:

The movie is directed by Anil Sharma, and written by Shakimaan Talwar. It is produced under the banner of Zee Studios, Zee Music, Anil Sharma Productions, and Zee5.

It is rated 6.5/10 on IMDb
