Drishyam 2: A Whirlwind of Mystery

Director: Abhishek Pathak

Main Cast: Ajay Devgn, Akshaye Khanna, Ishita Dutta, Tabassum Fatima Hashmi, Rajat Kapoor, Saurabh Shukla

Music Director: Devi Sri Prasad

Drishyam 2 is the sequel to Drishyam, which has been adapted from a Malayalam film bearing the same name. It continues the 2015 film with Vijay Salgaonkar played by Ajay Devgan emerging from a police station carrying a shovel. The almost-perfect crime committed seven years ago had a witness, which prompts the police to reopen the Sameer Deshmukh missing-case investigation so many years later.

Vijay, who is now a theatre owner, dreams of making a film based on a story he has written. His family is still shaken from the incident that happened all those years ago and can be seen trying to cope with it. The support Vijay received from his community seven years ago, begins to dwindle as the plot unfolds, and they begin to question if he actually committed the crime. The film picks the pace when the police investigation led by Inspector General of Police Tarun Ahlawat (Akshaye Khanna), and Sameer’s mother and former IG Meera (Tabu), swings into action. This time, they carefully map out their plans. 


The role of the protagonist has been directed immaculately with proper plot twists whenever necessary and an exciting shroud of mystery and suspense has been maintained throughout the film. From the depiction of the family as a weak point of the protagonist to the careful planning of covering the accidental murder with the play director in the movie playing a crucial role to save Vijay's family. This movie depicts the intelligence and bravery of the protagonist and how intelligently he evaded a sentence for an accidental crime that he committed while also showing the emotions of every person involved in the incident beautifully.

Apart from the beautiful narrative and the excellent acting by the actors, this film has some beautiful songs which adds to its glamour.

Rating: 9.4/10
