Vadh 2: Better or worse than part 1?

Vadh2 premiered at IFFI last year in November. In the first part, Shambhunath (Sanjay Mishra) and Neena (Manju) try to cover up the murder of a loan shark who is troubling them. In the sequel, while the cast returns, they essay different characters. However, the movie is set in the same universe and explores the philosophical distinction between ‘hatya’ (murder) and ‘vadh’ (slaughter).

"It is rare to come across a sequel that is better than the original, although Vadh 2 is not really a sequel to the 2022 film (sic)," read a review of Vadh 2. Another stated, "Vadh 2 outshines the original with phenomenal writing, sharp direction, and powerful performances. A gripping thriller that keeps you hooked till the last frame (sic)."

Another watcher called Vadh 2 a "must watch on the big screens", writing, "Sanjay Mishra and Neena Gupta remind us of the irreplaceable magic of the big screen. Vadh2  makes a strong case for theatrical viewing (sic)."

About the concept of the thematic sequel, Vadh 2 producer Luv Ranjan shared, "We are using the same actors and giving them new characters to give another message. We have basically created a new demon to show another evil in the society, and how a common man fights against it.”
