Tigmanshu Dhulia’s Saheb Biwi Aur Gangster Returns is one of the rare films of today’s times which can boast of its super-impressive dialogues. The lines written by Dhulia and Kamlesh Pandey are not run-of-the-mill types but intelligently witty and highly impactful. I have just compiled some of those below. Enjoy!

  • Bohat sasti ho chuki ho tum. Tumhe dene ke liye humare paas chillar bhi nahin hai.
  • Agar hum yahan baithe baithe Dubai mein kaand karwa sakte hain phir aapka ghar toh humare  ghar se sirf 300 kilometer ki doori par hai.
  • Humari toh gaali pe bhi taali padti hai.
  • Bandookon ka shauk humko bhi nahin tha. Woh bas zinda rehne ki zaroorat shauk ban gayi.
  • Yeh humesha mard hi kyun milte hai humein? Shayar kyun nahin milte?
  • Chaand pe baad mein chale jana. Pehle dharti ko toh theek se jaan lo.
  • Humara itihaas hai aur hum kal bhi itihaas banayenge.
  • Aapko pata hai mard zyada gaaliyan kyun dete hain? Kyunki woh rote kum hain.
  • Humein maafi maangte dekh aapko badi khushi ho rahi thi na? Maaf kijiyega yeh khushi hum aapko zyada der nahin de paye.

Review: Saheb Biwi Aur Gangster Returns

By: Keyur Seta

Director: Tigmanshu Dhulia

Producers: Brandsmith Motion Pictures, Viacom 18 Motion Pictures and Tigmanshu Dhulia Films

Writers: Tigmanshu Dhulia and Kamlesh Pandey

Cast: Jimmy Shergill, Irrfan Khan, Mahie Gill, Soha Ali Khan

Music: Sandeep Chowta

Genre: Thriller

Rating: * * *

Story Outline: Aditya Pratap Singh aka Saheb (Jimmy Shergill) and his loyal servant Kanhaiya (Deepraj Rana) somehow survive the bloodshed that took place at the end of the first installment Saheb Biwi Aur Gangster. But Aditya is now wheelchair bound although he might be back on his feet in a year’s time. Therefore, Saheb’s mother wants a successor to the family after Adityas is fit again.

Aditya’s drunkard wife Madhavi (Mahie Gill), however, is in no state to conceive. So now, Aditya’s mother wants his son to have another wife for that purpose. She tries to fix his second marriage with Ranjana (Soha Ali Khan), daughter of another royal family headed by Birendra Pratap (Raj Babbar). But Ranjana is in a relationship with his father’s loyal servant Indrajeet Singh (Irrfan Khan). What follows is a complicated game of betrayal.

Review: Saheb Biwi Aur Gangster (2011) was a royally shot royal thriller about a royal prince. Saheb Biwi Aur Gangster Returns can also be called the same but the overall satisfaction derived from the sequel is slightly lesser than the first film due to the writing. But the film can surely be enjoyed once, especially if you liked the first part.

Saheb-Biwi-Aur-Gangster-ReturnsThe writers get things right on the story part. The tale has an interesting mixture of betrayal, revenge, deceit and politics. After the introduction, they have smartly developed the story with the first plot point. But more than that, the writers should be highly applauded for some extraordinary and appealing dialogues. The witty lines keep flowing continuously! However, what slightly disappoints in the first half is its length of almost 90 minutes!

There are a good number of interesting twists in the second half but after a point of time, complication and confusion creep in, especially due to the political track. There also comes a period where there are too many events taking place which gives way to a lack of focus. But thankfully, an intelligently presented twisted climax makes sure you leave the cinema hall with a degree of satisfaction.

Dhulia gets perfect support from Yogesh Jani’s intelligent camerawork and Sandeep Chowta’s powerful background score. Chowta deserves praise as a music composer too. It is very rare these days for all songs (‘Jugni’, ‘Chhal Kapat’, ‘Idhar Gire’, ‘Media Se’ and ‘Kona Kona’) in an album turning out to be impressive. But the ‘Idhar Gire’ track strongly brings back memories of ‘Kaise Paheli’ from Parineeta, not only the music and lyrics but also the whole setting. This is not all though. ‘Chhal Kapat’ bears striking similarity to ‘Aarambh Hai Prachand’ from Gulaal.

The performances are the backbone of this performance oriented film. Jimmy Shergill is simply outstanding as Saheb. In fact, he has gone few notches higher than the first film making this as one of his finest acts. Irrfan Khan lives up to his image as one of the finest actors to have emerged from India. It’s an absolute delight to see him perform. Mahie Gill plays her part well as she is completely believable as a frustrated drunkard.

Soha Ali Khan was required to underplay her character which she does well and also manages to speak through expressions. Deepraj Rana once again shows his acting prowess while Pravesh Rana makes a confident debut. Veteran actor Raj Babbar plays his part well but his performance has nothing new from what he has done in the last decade or so. The film is well-supported by Rajeev Gupta, Sitaram Panchal and Rajesh Khera.

Overall, Saheb Biwi Aur Gangster Returns won’t disappoint you if you prefer watching unusually twisted thrillers. The film has a decent chance at the box office but only if it receives some rapid word of mouth.

Saheb Biwi Aur Gangster Returns Box Office Prediction

March 7, 2013 by Keyur Seta Leave a Comment

Director: Tigmanshu Dhulia

Producers: Brandsmith Motion Pictures, Viacom 18 Motion Pictures and Tigmanshu Dhulia Films

Writers: Tigmanshu Dhulia and Kamlesh Pandey

Cast: Jimmy Shergill, Irrfan Khan, Mahie Gill, Soha Ali Khan

Music: Sandeep Chowta

Genre: Thriller

Release Date: March 8, 2013

Analysis:

Star Value: Although Irrfan Khan is one of the best actors ever to come from India, he isn’t a big crowd puller. Nevertheless, he commands respect even among the masses which will surely create excitement for the movie. And considering the presence of known names like Jimmy Shergill, Mahie Gill (both retained from the first installment of the franchise) and Soha Ali Khan, we can say that Saheb Biwi Aur Gangster Returns has a decent star value.

Hype: The biggest hype factor for the movie is the fact that it is the sequel to the successful and impressive Saheb Biwi Aur Gangster (2011). The promos of the movie have got a decent response although not excellent. The inclusion of Irrfan and Soha has added on to the excitement. But for some reason the overall hype hasn’t been as high as expected, although it isn’t bad.

Music: The hit number ‘Jugni’, from the first installment, is recreated in this movie. That song has managed to make heads turn. The rest of the songs aren’t known.

Prediction:

Saheb Biwi Aur Gangster Returns will get a decent opening at the box-office. The not-so-high hype will make sure the opening isn’t very impressive. It needs to impress initially to have a good run at the ticket-window. If it does, it has a fairly good chance of making good profits since the nature of the film suits both single screen and multiplex audience.

As there are no big releases up for the next week, Saheb Biwi Aur Gangster Returns might slowly climb the box office ladder like most of the content-based films, provided it gets thumbs up from the masses.
