Vaazha 2 : Biopic of a billion bros - A fun and emotional rollercoaster

The film stars Hashir , Alphonse Puthren , Aju Varghese , Vijay Babu , Alan Bin Siraj , Ajin Joy , Sudheesh and more. It is directed by Savin S.A. The whole cast and crew has done a wonderful job. The strong suit of the 2024 malayalam hit film Vaazha was the relatability it created. A big chunk of that movie was on the humour side , where we would see our heroes messing up their lives with all those stupid life choices , but towards the end of that movie the film empathized with those characters and spoke on their behalf , addressing many important social messages. In my opinion , that right balance was what made that seemingly simple film a huge hit. Vipin Das who had written and co-produced that film , returns with a sequel with a new director , and once again he applies the same formula. However , because of a newer setting that addresses issues that feel a bit more contemporary , the formula dosen't bother you , and what you get is an entertaining film that uses the language of its target audience to preach. Hashir , Alan , Ajin and Vinayak are the main bros of this part of the franchise. While Hashir and Alan were neighbours , they became friends with Ajin and Vinayak during their school adventures. As you can imagine , none of them were talented or studious , and they were troublemakers in their school. What we see here is the student life of those folks , where they had to deal with humiliation and heartbreak. Music by Electronic Killi is energetic and suits the vibe of the film well. The editor Kannan Mohan brings tidiness to the narrative , so that the film dosent feel all over the place. The first half of the film is very funny and chaotic in a good way but after the interval , the film showcases the consequences of the students who enjoy their lives throughout their school year and end up jobless. The last 30 mins of the film is very emotional and makes the film meaningful. Overall - A great entertainer which isn't too preachy with it's subject.
