Vadh 2 returns to the grim moral universe of its predecessor but trades emotional intensity for a slower, uneven prison thriller. Strong performances keep it afloat, even as the narrative falters.

Vadh 2 Review: Sanjay Mishra, Neena Gupta Shine in Muted Sequel

  • Vadh 2, a sequel to the 2022 film Vadh, brings back Sanjay Mishra and Neena Gupta, joined by Kumud Mishra, Akshay Dogra, and Amitt K. Singh.
  • The film opens with Manju Singh (Neena Gupta) in prison, where she has an arrangement with constable Shambhunath Mishra (Sanjay Mishra).
  • A new jail superintendent, Jai Prakash Singh (Kumud Mishra), takes charge and clashes with notorious inmate Bhuri Bhaiya (Akshay Dogra).
  • Bhuri Bhaiya goes missing after a confrontation with Jai Prakash Singh, leading to an inquiry by Inspector Ateet Singh (Amitt K. Singh).
  • Despite strong performances, the film suffers from a sluggish screenplay, uneven pacing, and a lack of emotional connection compared to its predecessor, though the climax offers some intrigue.
