Seldom brood over past.. Live in the present

"Ivanyaro different very very different!" is one the song from this movie,which pretty much sums up director's skills. The movie is a sequel to Upendra which was released in 1999. He has directed after a gap of around 4.5 years(his last movie was Super) and he's back with a blockbuster!One of the qualities of his movies is the difficulty to interpret and convey the story to others. Here's what i thought :

Uppi 2 is all about advising people not to think too much and live in the past/future.Instead concentrate only on the present,as it is the only thing which we can change. Here we find the hero playing the role of Naanu(past Upendra), Neenu(present - who is considered to be a sage) and avnu(future - under cover cop) which is left to audience to interpret as their wish.But only naanu exists in the real word and rest are character's imagination. In order to obtain wealth and become happy,people will find different ways to accomplish. But being happy is not equivalent to being wealthy. Which means,only a person who is happy with his work is considered to be a healthy and wealthy man. If we live thinking about our past/ future we may not achieve anything.What we see is real.that is the ultimate truth!

Actual hero of this movie is the screenplay.The director has put in lots of hard work and thoughts in designing this,although he advices people not to think much.Kristina Akheeva looks gorgeous and has tried her best to act. Parul Yadav has done a cameo in this movie.Cinematography by Ashok kashyap is good. The music director Gurukiran has collaborated with Upendra after 16 years,and has given few catchy numbers.Dialogues are brilliant.

The song which had created lots of controversy-"No excuse Me please" seems to be irrelevant. Over all,it's a good movie and deserves to be watched more than once for its exceptional screenplay.

My rating is 9.5/10.

score 9/10
