Raveena Tandon as Prime Minister Ramika Sen is also against Rocky's empire. In solo scenes, however, Dutt fails to measure up. His character looks frail in some scenes but Dutt nevertheless does the job. His confrontation with Rocky is too intense. Sanjay Dutt plays the antagonist Adheera in the movie. This establishes a real bond with the character, one that goes deeper than the surface. The connection that is established in passing flashbacks is meaningful and the feeling of loss and pain lingers on. Coupled with the background score, the viewers get the vibe of a Hollywood event film, but with Indian roots.Įven as the character becomes more unabashed and deadly in the sequel, Rocky's underdog story and the emotional scenes from his past life, with his mother in them, make him human and vulnerable. Additionally, there are sweeping aerial shots that add to the visual grandeur and give a slick feel to the movie. Chapter 1 mostly had dimly lit scenes at KGF to imply slavery. Here, there are well-lit scenes to signify freedom and rebellion against authority. The cinematography by Bhuvan Gowda is like added ammunition in the KGF's arsenal. Such is the enigma of this character that all details get dissolved into the larger picture. However, the only way one makes a distinction between them is whether they are with or against Rocky and his empire. Most of the characters make a return in the sequel and with them some newer ones too. At no point in time does the story gets convoluted. Within this larger narrative scheme, the director uses more parallel editing to connect themes and keep the pace edgy. KGF: Chapter 2 story runs parallel in the present and the past, like the first part. The audience connects with Rocky's sarcastic and serious nature with equal ease. The characterisation by director Prashanth Neel has to be praised here. In between mindless mayhem, Rocky's unpredictability becomes even more striking and effective. He makes snappy transitions from a funny and fast-talking man to an intense one. This is the moment where you get the hint that Yash is set to take you on a ride. In a long sequence, with a thumping, orchestral background score, set in the ruins where he now rules, we see a stylish and suited up Rocky Bhai walk in against a silhouette.

Yash's intro scene does full justice to his larger-than-life character.
A call back helps viewers establish a connection instantly and also paves the way for Rocky-mania to unfold. For a refresher, the sequel devotes the opening scene to recalling KGF's hidden truth and with it, the story of greed, violence, politics and mindless bloodshed to unearth gold hidden in KGF mines. It is almost like Marvel's storytelling. The experience is immersive and grips the viewers from the beginning.
KGF's story makes a seamless transition into the sequel. Four years later, the sequel retains the same elements in storytelling that made it a blockbuster back then and more importantly a fan favourite. An almost God-like antihero, Rocky, played by Yash, whose on-screen presence is truly unmatched and unseen in a long time, returns on the big screen with even more swagger and fiery intensity in his eyes. Kannada language period action-drama KGF, which was released in 2018, set in motion a mythical story about India's most notorious criminal, Rocky Bhai, at the centre of the world's biggest goldmine El Dorado.
