Sadak 2 (transl. Road 2) is a 2020 Indian film directed by Mahesh Bhatt and produced by Mukesh Bhatt under their banner Vishesh Films. The film is the sequel to the 1991 film Sadak. The sequel stars Sanjay Dutt, Pooja Bhatt, Alia Bhatt and Aditya Roy Kapur.[2][3] The film marks Mahesh Bhatt's return as a director after 20 years.[4]

The film is about Ravi's depression and how he helps a young woman's encounter with a godman, who is out to expose this fake guru running an ashram.[4] The shooting began on 18 May 2019,[5] and the film was shot in Ooty, Mumbai, Mysore and Uttarakhand.

The film's trailer was released on 12 August 2020 on YouTube, and within a week, it became the second most-disliked video on the website due to vote brigading.[6][7][8]

Sadak 2 was released on 28 August 2020 on the streaming platform Disney+ Hotstar.[1] The film received overwhelmingly negative reviews from critics who called it "terrible" and "lackluster".[9]

Plot

The film picks up where Sadak left off, revolving around the journey with a young girl who becomes an important character in the life of the protagonist, and the reason for him to stay alive.

Cast

Babrak Akbari

Production

The film was announced on 20 September 2018 by Alia Bhatt on Twitter, where She revealed the details of the film.[14] On 8 April 2019, it was confirmed that the principal photography will commence in middle of May 2019.[2]

The principal photography began on 18 May 2019.[5] On 19 May 2019, Makarand Deshpande was confirmed to play the main antagonist in the film. Alia Bhatt joined the filming from 21 May 2019.[15] The first schedule of the film was completed in the third week of May in Mumbai. The second schedule began in Ooty in mid July 2019.[16][17]

Trailer release and reception

Sadak 2's trailer faced vote brigading owing to the nepotism debate sparked after the suicide of Indian actor Sushant Singh Rajput. Speculating that he had despaired of being shut out of the film industry due to hiring practises that favoured children of established film personalities, Rajput's fans blamed Bollywood insiders, including Sadak 2 director Mahesh Bhatt and his daughter Alia, one of its stars. Alia Bhatt had once spoken dismissively of Rajput on a chat show.[6][7][18] Within two days of its release, the trailer had received 5.3 million dislikes on YouTube.[19]

Release

The film was initially scheduled for release on 25 March 2020, but was pushed to 10 July 2020.[20] It was again pulled from the release schedule as the shooting was delayed because of COVID-19 pandemic lockdown in India.[21]

On 29 June 2020, the streaming service Disney+ Hotstar conducted a virtual press conference, where Alia Bhatt announced that the film was released on Disney+ Hotstar exclusively, premiered on 28 August 2020.[22][1]

Critical reception

Sadak 2 received overwhelmingly negative reviews from critics who called it boring, lackluster and terrible.[9] Anna M. M. Vetticad of Firstpost gave the film 0.25 out of 5, calling it the director's interpretation of a "sleeping pill", and wrote "It is not possible to be angry with Sadak 2 for its half-baked ideas and quarter-baked script though, because it is too boring to be worthy of even anger."[23] Calling it "One of 2020’s worst films", Jyoti Sharma Bawa of Hindustan Times wrote that Sadak 2 is a "jaded and ponderous film that is stuck in the 90s [which] is best avoided."[24] Shubhra Gupta of The Indian Express gave the film 1 out of 5, calling it "terrible" and wondered "why would anyone want to make something so dated, so jaded, in this day and age?"[25] Rahul Desai of Film Companion called the film "dreadful" and "atrocious", and bemoaned that the performances of the actors "sticks out like a sore thumb."[26]
