As much as the climax of the 1st part was exciting, as boring were the first 30 Min's of the sequel showing a summarized flashback of Rakta Charitra. Only if i would have known this fact, i would have definitely left home another half an hour late. It only in a way laid the base for the viewers to throw off all the enthusiasm they had, to watch it after the thrilling finish in Rakta Charitra. RGV, i guess couldn't deliver what was expected. Its true he's the expert in expressing every single emotion in a human mind with his camerawork but this time it wasn't as good and perfect, added to being really slow too and the final recipe turns out to be quite tasteless.
The few things which were still in place include screenplay & background score. The other important aspects that really messed up were lack of powerful dialogues and average performances. It may be the fact that the dialogue delivery and its impact to the viewer may have been different in Hindi and Telugu, but at least it didn't click in the Hindi version. Vivek Oberoi was far from being what he was in the prequel. i was expecting too much from Tamil star Surya and i truly felt disappointed. He was good in certain scenes, but that really wasn't enough. With the plot putting him to the centre stage instead of Vivek, he could have done wonders to this role. There was no Abhimanyu Singh this time to keep you wondering what this evil character will do next, and even Shatrughan Sinha had very little to do. The only saving grace was Sudeep, i wish RGV had considered to give him a bit longer screen presence. I guess the limitation RGV faced was that it was based on true story and in the end it turned out more to be a drama documentary with the theme of vengeance and nothing more than that. The movie in itself was not meant to be just like its prequel but at least it could have been much more shorter (some scenes were dragged for no reason and to an extent that you start loosing any minor interest you may have developed during the storyline) and interesting.
I would still like to salute RGV to go on with Rakta Charitra sequels showcasing the blood bathed story of two actual families in Andhra. This in a way was to make public not only aware but even make them understand the futility of the emotion called "Vengeance".
