==Plot== |
|||
The movie commences from where the [[Once Upon a Time in Mumbaai|previous film]] ended with Shoaib Khan (Akshay Kumar) being the reigning don after successfully assassinating his mentor as well as his predecessor, Sultan Mirza ([[Ajay Devgn]]) thus earning the respect and reverence of the people. He is the charismatic and suave man with [[womanising]] skills who has extended his empire upto the Middle east on the west. His sole companions and friends are Javed, who oversees his illegal and shady works for him, his old-time love Mumtaz ([[Sonali Bendre]]) and Aslam ([[Imran Khan (actor)|Imran Khan]]), a youth spotted by Shoaib during one of his visits to the slums, where he once spent the early years of his life. |
|||
The only obstacles on Shoaib's path to supremacy in [[Mumbai|Bombay]] are two enemies of Shoaib, Vardha and Arun. Sreenu, a police officer joins hands with Vardha and Arjun as the trio's intention of ruining Shoaib coincides. |
|||
Although the city still being his first love a rising starlet, Jasmine has caught the fancy of Shoaib's heart. In due time this passion takes the shape of obsession and leads to a rift between Shoaib and Aslam as they both vie for Jasmine's love.<ref name="Movie Plot">{{cite web|last=Once Upon a Time in Mumbaai Dobaara!|first=Koimoi|title=Plotline|url=http://www.koimoi.com/movie/once-upon-a-time-in-mumbaai-dobaara/?type=plot|work=Koimoi Team|publisher=Koimoi|accessdate=15 July 2013}}</ref> |

==Controversies== |
|||
Initially, [[Shah Rukh Khan]] starrer ''[[Chennai Express]]'' and [[Akshay Kumar]] starrer ''Once Upon Ay Time In Mumbai Dobaara!'' both have been abandoned by Pakistani distributors and exhibitors in the interest of four of their own films releasing on the same day but now it has been finalised that both the films will be released in Pakistan.<ref>{{cite web|author=Gupta Ritwika|title=Pakistan Bans SRK & Akki Films!|url=http://youthtimes.in/pakistan-bans-srk-akki-films/|publisher=YouthTimes.in}}</ref> |
|||
The prequel to the film, which was ''[[Once Upon a Time in Mumbaai]]'', had storyline and characters that were similar to real-life underworld dons according to film critics. The same was speculated about the sequel with the visual appearance of the lead character being strikingly similar to [[Dawood Ibrahim]] along with several aspects of the film like glimpses of Shoaib's involvement in cricket matches shown in the first theatrical trailer comparable to Dawood's alleged strong hold in [[Match fixing|monopolisation of cricket matches]]. Shoaib Khan romancing a starlet, portrayed on-screen by [[Sonakshi Sinha]] also drew attention with Dawood's rumoured affair with 1980's mainstream-film actress [[Mandakini (actress)|Mandakini]], more so with the real name of Mandakini being ''Yasmeen Joseph'' which had an uncanny resemblance to the original name of the character, ''Yasmin''. Thus the name was later changed to Jasmine in-light of such controversies.<ref name="Striking Similiarity">{{cite web|last=Striking similiarity of characters of OUATIMD|first=with real-life.|title=When fiction reeks of reality Read more at: http://indiatoday.intoday.in/story/when-fiction-reeks-of-reality/1/298872.html|url=http://indiatoday.intoday.in/story/when-fiction-reeks-of-reality/1/298872.html|work=Vinayak Chakravorty, India Today|publisher=India Today|accessdate=10 August 2013}}</ref> |

Answering to such speculations, the producer of the film, lead and director of the venture have time and again despised such allegations and remained firm on their statement that the film is entirely fictional thereby clearing the air of rumours.<ref name="Denial to rumours">{{cite web|last=Deined rumors|title=I do movies according to market demand: Akshay Kumar|url=I do movies according to market demand: Akshay Kumar|work=Zee News India|publisher=Zee News India|accessdate=9 August 2013}}</ref> |

The soundtrack of the film received mainly positive reviews from contemporary critics. |
|||
Rumnique Nannar of ''Bollyspice'' gave the soundtrack three and a half stars and opined, "the album succeeds in all respects, since it features a remake, a retro song, and two gems, and manages to fit with the film’s tone and mood of the 80s".<ref name="Bollyspice Review">{{cite web | url=http://bollyspice.com/64540/once-upon-a-time-in-mumbai-dobara-music-review | title=Once Upon Ay Time In Mumbaai Dobaara!

''Movie Talkies'' also gave the soundtrack three and a half stars and stated, "the soundtrack of ''OUATIMD'' is an excellent effort from Pritam and is sure to be lapped up by the audiences in much the same way as its predecessor. It sure might be a short album with just four songs in it but suffice to say, Quality wins over Quantity".<ref name="Movie Talkies Review">{{cite web | url=http://www.movietalkies.com/movies/reviews/music/20196/once-upon-ay-time-in-mumbai-dobaara | title=Once Upon Ay Time In Mumbai Dobaara!

''Rajiv Vijayakar'' writing for Bollywood Hungama analised and reviewed each song on its own merit. |
|||
*'''Ye Tune Kya Kiya''' - A Sufi song in its roots the reviewer praised Pritam, the Composer for adhering to deep melodies in parts thereby bridging the generation gap between the ''best of the melodious past and today's music'' and for handing it out more of a [[Sufi]]-[[Rock]] treatment. According to the reviewer it serves as a rightful successor to the Sufi song called ''Tumjo Aye Mere Zindagi Mein'' from the soundtrack of the [[Once Upon a Time in Mumbaai|prequel]] but this time its more intricately designed and pays a tribute to it by composing it in this Genre. He credits the play of strings in the interlude and phonetics in playing a major role in boosting the soulful content it carries with it. |
|||
*'''Tayyab Ali''' - A modern adaption of song of same in the 1970's film, [[Amar Akbar Anthony]] by Pritam's assistant, [[Anupam Amod]] sets itself apart from the contempory recreations in recreating the ''near-identical situation to the original song, and the imaginative contemporary tenor''. He furthermore praised the smart addition of lyrics by Lyricist and writer of the film, Rajat Aroraa to the original irreverent chorus by Anand Bakshi, Pritam replicating the old orchestration only to a basic extent, keeping the choral patterns different too and avoided unnecessary comparison between the Mohammed Rafi and Javed Ali stating that would be ''unfair'' and ''odious''. |
|||
*'''Tu Hi Khwahish''' - A counterpart of ''Parda'' from the previous soundtrack which itself found its sources in two classics. The energetic, laced with intesenly romantical lyrics and richly acoustical in arrangements according to the reviewer is a ''hark back to such tracks from Prakash Mehra and Feroz Khan with Kalyanji-Anandji'' and ''orchestral nuances reminding us of R.D. Burman!''. He concluded with stating it to be the finest track which inspite of some high-pitched vocals from [[Sunidhi Chauhan]] does not jar on the ears at even for a sole point of time. |
|||
*'''Chugliyaan''' - The weakest link of the album he critised it for being too calculated in melodies and lyrics and thereby got executed at the end as an average and orthodox track. He critised it not for being bad but being the ''ad-infinitum'' grooves frequented by lesser skilled composers.<ref name="Bollywood Hungama review">{{cite web|last=Review|first=of OUATIMD's Soundtrack|title=Once Upon Ay Time In Mumbai Dobaara!|url=http://www.bollywoodhungama.com/moviemicro/musiccriticreview/id/597599|work=Rajiv Vijayakar|publisher=Bollywood Hungama|accessdate=29 July 2013}}</ref> |

''Jogider Tuteja'' writing for [[Rediff]] review of the soundtrack - |
|||
*'''Ye Tune Kya Kiya''' - He praises the lyrics which are appropriate to the core, Javed Bashirs vocals that ''that gel well with the overall flow of the song.'' and the composers deft ability to maintain the quintessential qawalli flavour throughout the entirety of the song. |
|||
*'''Tayyab Ali''' - He heavily critizes the song's experimental and annoyingly placed english lyrics which foils the singers earnest attempts who tries his best. |
|||
*'''Tu Hi Khwahish''' - He praises the song for setting the mood back after an upsetting ''Tayyab Ali'', a song that would make [[Asha Bhosle]] proud, particularly beacuse of Sunidhi Chauhans vocal rendition in the ''antra's''. |
|||
*'''Chugliyaan''' - He credits the final track, a sufi number as a ''beautiful love song with a poetic feel to it'' and ''impressive chorus''. He compared [[Javed Ali]]'s vocals to those of [[Sonu Nigam]] adding them be exceptionally well supported by Sahir Ali Bagga's vocals.<ref name="Rediff Review">{{cite web|last=Music review of|first=OUATIM Dobaara!|title=OUATIM Dobara has some good tunes|url=http://www.rediff.com/movies/review/music-review-ouatim-dobara-has-some-good-tunes/20130722.htm|work=Joginder Tuteja|publisher=Rediff|accessdate=22 July 2013}}</ref> |
