The movie Jism 2 by Pooja Bhatt stars Sunny Leone who became famous from Bigg Boss. Before going to watch the movie, I was thinking that this movie will be more erotic and bold than Bipasha Basu's Jism. So let's find out what is the reality of this movie.
Story
The story of the film is based on the life of Izna (Sunny Leone), who has been betrayed in love. Izna gets a chance to take revenge from her ex-boyfriend Kabir (Randeep Hooda) and this opportunity is given to her by Ayan (Arunoday Singh), a senior officer of an intelligence agency. There are many ups and downs in the story while Izna takes revenge from her ex-boyfriend Kabir and Izna gets a chance to show off her body again and again. The story of the film is fine but due to too many twists and turns the film slows down, on top of that the director has presented the entire story in flashback.
We see a book by Noam Chomsky and a biography of Che Guevara on the hero's coffee table. He is living a solitary life in a five-star resort in Sri Lanka. From his secret hideout, he plans bomb blasts and assassinations in India. Kabir (Randeep Hooda, who has replaced Bhatt camp's favourite Emraan Hashmi in this film) is a political assassin.
He used to be a police officer till some time back. He also had a girlfriend (Sunny Leone). One day suddenly he was evicted from her life and it seemed as if no trace of him was left. His girlfriend is also not interested in knowing what happened to him. We don't care about him anyway.
Intelligence Officer Ayan enters the story of the film. He and his boss (Arif Zakaria) hire Izma to get close to Kabir who is a criminal and murderer, trap him in her love trap and hand him over to the police. Sunny is asked to pay 10 crore rupees for this work.
On the other hand, Izma and Kabir already know each other. Izma remembers her old life when she and Kabir were together and happy but Kabir left her. To take revenge for that old wound, Izma agrees to go to Kabir. Izma and Ayan go to Sri Lanka as each other's fiancée and start living in the house opposite Kabir's. At first, Kabir refuses to even recognize Izma but then he cannot stop himself from coming to Izma again and again. The officers tell that Kabir used to work with them earlier but later, in order to become a messiah, he turns against other police officers and ministers.
The officers not only want to kill Kabir but also want to get the secret information present in his laptop. Kabir cannot stop himself from getting close to Izma but at the same time he is suspicious of Izma. The direction of the film changes when Kabir asks Izma to marry him. Izma, who has been unsuccessful in trapping Kabir till now and at the same time still loves Kabir, after a lot of thinking, agrees to marry Kabir.
Acting
Arunoday Singh did not fit into the role of an officer at all. He was neither able to express his love nor his anger properly. It seemed as if he was getting nervous in front of Sunny Leone again and again. Randeep Hooda, on the other hand, is holding the film together. It is better not to talk about Sunny Leone's acting because she still has a lot to learn in the name of acting. Looking at Sunny, it seemed as if she was in a hurry to show off her body and not to speak her dialogues.
The only thing the makers of this film could have done to improve Sunny Leone's performance was dub it. But the dubbing is not done properly. In every conversation, Leone just sits or stands, breathing deeply and exhaling and frowning nervously. It is hard to tell what role she is playing in this film.
Direction
Pooja Bhatt had a good story but she took a lot of time to develop the story, due to which the film started to slow down. The setup and locations of the film are very good. The entire film has been shot in Sri Lanka and some beautiful scenes are also seen there. Pooja failed to get Sunny to act but has succeeded in getting her to take off her clothes in front of the camera with ease.
Sunny needed some more makeup because Sunny did not look attractive at all on screen. This weakness of Sunny can disappoint her audience. In an attempt to balance the story, Pooja forgot to add interest to the film. Yes, the last part of the film can be called a little interesting.
In the name of direction, Pooja has focused more on capturing Sunny's beauty on camera. The first forty minutes of the film are very dull, in the last fifteen minutes Pooja has tried to wrap up the story well.
Music
Arko Pravo Mukherjee and Mithun Sharma's music is strong. The songs of the film have already become hits. It seems that more work has been done on its songs than the acting of the actors of the film. Some songs of the film 'Yeh Jism', 'Abhi Abhi' and 'Maula' are hits.
Why watch
Those who want to go to see Sunny Leone's body show can go but they will not get anything special. The location, setup, songs, especially the dialogues of the film are very good. Like, 'Only the one who can hate with such intensity can love with such intensity.' The entire film is full of such good dialogues.
Sunny Leone's beauty has the power to pull a special class of audience to the theatres. If you are going to the theatre expecting a good story or good acting from Sunny, then you will be upset. At the same time, you will not see as many hot love making scenes of Sunny Leone in the film as you have seen on YouTube, posters and promos.
Why not watch
The boldness and hotness that has been used in the film's promos is not great in the film. It seems that the censor board has cut the scenes too much on this film. The earlier films like 'Jism' and 'Julie' seem to be bolder than this film. The sensuality that Bipasha Basu spread in 'Jism' and the way she attracted the audience, Sunny Leone does not have that style. That is, in 'Jism 2', along with beauty, the soul is also missing.
Extra shots
Sunny Leone was introduced in the film with a lot of fanfare. The censor board refused to give a certificate to this film. But later, after cutting many scenes, the film was given an A certificate. The censor board has cut 36 minutes of scenes from the entire film.
