Four years ago in 2018, the makers of KGF Chapter 1 made a promise. A promise of creating the largest Kannada movie that will receive a global reach and will open many avenues of film making. Today, after the release of KGF Chapter 2, it can be asserted that the promise has been kept. With that let us have a look at the KGF Chapter 2 review.
Directed and written by Prashanth Neel, who is a superstar in his own niche, this movie has attracted the consciousness of the whole nation and reinvented the time tested narrative of an underdog reaching the top facing all odds. But then, when the underdog in question is the apparently invincible Rocky Bhai (Yash), each element of the masala template is dialed up to astronomical levels. The KGF Chapter 2 release date was scheduled for April 14, 2022. Now that you have known about the KGF Chapter 2 plot in a gist, let us begin with this KGF Chapter 2 review.
KGF Chapter 2 Review: Nail Biting Narrative
Now keeping everything aside, here is the KGF Chapter 2 review. ‘KGF: Chapter 1‘ set the ambiance for a slick gangster franchise high on details and style. The first part was all about situating the power and intentions of Raja Krishnappa Bairya aka Rocky Bhai. The second part has handled to create a hype with its promotional matter that offers a peek into the movie. Does the film become successful in matching the build-up? It does and offers a better sequel and also has a huge surprise for fans in the end, as well.
The film starts with Vijayendra Ingalagi, the son of Anand Ingalagi, taking over as the storyteller. Rocky has successfully won over the people of KGF and he is now on the way to dreaming bigger and treading more lethal paths. In this process, he meets Adheera, who is inspired by the Vikings and arouses visceral fear, who wishes KGF back. At the same time, he also has to face the righteous Prime Minister Ramika Sen, who also wants Rocky taken down.
The story moves further at a brisk pace in a racy tale of a journey of Rocky to the top. The movie, like the first part, offers a dark, dreary habitat that is stylishly shot. While the first part took time in proving who the protagonist was and involved more time to establish the same, this second part shifts faster and one gets to meet more characters. The battles and conflicts are more interesting this time.
In this KGF Chapter 2 review, it is important to mention that this film gets to portray the emotional part of Rocky as well, with a love story and even some scenes into his past life that boosted his ambition. The love story does not take away too much from the tale either. One of the ideal shots in the film is the initiation of Adheera played by Sanjay Dutt. It is immense magic on screen and arouses whistles organically. Raveena Tandon as the Prime Minister also has a good track record. The other astonishing addition is Rao Ramesh as the CBI officer. Prakash Raj also does the role of a good narrator, with his baritone adding a captivating experience.
The movie belongs as much to director Prashanth Neel as it does to Yash. Both of them have successfully delivered a sequel that looks more captivating in comparison to the first part. Albeit, Prashanth has always stated that the second part had the larger chunk of his original story when they planned to break it into two parts.

Verdict
After this KGF Chapter 2 review it can be concluded that for the viewers who wish to watch a loaded action film that has style, heavy-duty stunts, and also dialogues, this one is simply made for them. KGF: Chapter 2 might not appeal to the apparently woke audience, who would question nitpick or consent on commercial staples such as violence. But for those who love such movies, he is an important spoiler, as there is a hint at a possible third part in the end credits, so watch the movie until the end. You can watch the KGF Chapter 2 full movie in your nearby theaters. At the time of writing this, this film has crossed ₹676 crores and also the total earnings of Baahubali.
