Meena Iyre from The Times of India gave it 3 out of 5 stars stating the film raises the bar from its first part.Sukanya Verma of Rediff liked the choreography but thought that "because of its poorly paced beginning, ABCD 2 feels a bit of stretch at 154 minutes." She gave the film 2.5 out of 5 stars.Rajeev Masand of CNN-IBN also gave the film 2.5 out of 5 stars writing that the film "makes up for its amateurish storytelling with its often jaw-dropping set pieces and the sheer hard work of its leads. Varun and Shraddha are so earnest, you're willing to forgive their less-than-convincing histrionics because their dancing – particularly Varun's – is mighty impressive. Both actors hold their own against the professionals without losing face."

The film got a negative review from Shubhra Gupta of The Indian Express who gave it 1.5 out of 5 stars. She wrote "A dance movie needs to electrify. That's missing in this Shraddha Kapoor, Varun Dhawan starrer

Abcd 2 Full Movie Story Line

Suresh 'Suru' Mukund (Varun Dhawan) wants to be a big dancer to fulfill his mother's wish. Vinnie (Shraddha Kapoor) wants to be the best hip-hop dancer. Childhood friends from suburban Nalasopara, Mumbai, they form a team and participate in a national level competition Hum Kisi Se Kum Nahin where they are disqualified from the grand finale as their moves are revealed to be copied from the performance act of the Philippine All Stars and the judges term them cheaters. Everyone departs to search for jobs. Suru returns to work in a bar as a waiter, Vinnie rejoins a beauty parlour and Vernon (Sushant Pujari) gets back as a delivery boy where, on and off, they are insulted as cheaters. The departure of angry teammates adds insult to injury, and nothing is set to be corrected.

Suru hopes to remove the negative tag by planning to win a grander hip-hop competition in Las Vegas. One day he watches Vishnu (Prabhudeva), a rogue visitor, prove his dance mettle to a betting visitor in the bar and convinces him repeatedly to be their choreographer. They audition for people and formulate the team. They visit the qualifiers in Bangalore, where they are pre-insulted as cheaters, but manage to win it after Vishnu begs the audience for one last chance for the team. Although things are fine, Suru is broken when Shetty Anna (Murli Sharma), the owner of the bar where he is employed, refuses to provide him financial support extending to Rs. 25 lakhs, something he had earlier publicly promised to Suru at the time of the Hum Kisi Se Kum Nahin finale, and Suru leaves the place, angry at Anna's insulting language for Vinnie. However, Vishnu manages to get the money from Crocxz's (Raghav Juyal) uncle who he convinces, after Suru loses hope when Vishnu gets angry at his inability to arrange team funds. Later they prepare to go to Las Vegas, but Vinod (Punit Pathak), a deaf-mute dancer, learns from Vishnu himself that the latter has ulterior motives to go to Vegas, and, as a matter of fact, he had deliberately impressed Suru and friends to procure a way out for his plan. In Las Vegas they win the qualifiers. Later Vishnu leaves the hotel with team money to meet his son Manu (Jineet Rath), whose mother, Swati (Tisca Chopra) is married to another man and has moved on in life. He talks to Manu and leaves with a contented heart.

In the meantime, Vinnie gets injured due to excessive rehearsal and is replaced by Olive (Lauren Gottlieb), an American girl of partial Indian origin, and Vishnu discovers this while thanking friend Gopi (Ganesh Acharya), who works in a bar-cum-hotel. At the same time, Suru is enraged when he finds Vishnu missing and tries to proceed with jam sessions all on his own, but in vain. Vishnu returns while trying to save the day for Suru from the German team as they get into a fight, later admitting he had made a 'mistake' leaving without permission although he didn't want to lose a family he had yearned to create in years, apologizes, is forgiven by Suru, and the team enters the finals. Across rehearsals, Olive gets close to Suru and a jealous Vinnie tells Suru she loves him. Although Olive has feelings for Suru, an in-person conversation with Vinnie assures Olive that Suru had that inherent charm with nothing to do about his sweetness, and she agrees to continue with the Indian Stunners after Vinnie recovers. The team enters the final, where Vinod's health worsens during a fictitious assemblage and the Indian Stunners end up making this grave mistake in the formation only to fall down, since D (Dharmesh Yelande) knew about Vinod's tuberculosis problem. Everyone has almost given up after the accident, when Vinod tries to encourage Suru, who forgoes the accident and the others return to make the formation with success with Vinod at the bottom. They don't win the competition but win the hearts of millions, with Suru lending a voiceover narrative about his mother's motivational lessons on dance.

ABCD 2 Movie Public Reviews

1:-Fenil Seta

    We haven’t had many dance and 3D films, both of which can attract youth in hordes in theatres. ABCD 2 is both and moreover, it also rides on the star power of Varun Dhawan and Shraddha Kapoor. Hence, the excitement obviously was tremendous for the film. And thankfully, it does turn out to be a decent entertaining fare and has some riveting moments. But it doesn’t go beyond the first part. Also, a stretched narrative dilutes the impact.

The story of the movie: Suresh(Varun Dhawan) and Vinnie(Shraddha Kapoor) are the lead dancers of their dance group Mumbai Stunners. The dance group participates in a reality show but is booed and criticized for copying dance style of a foreign dance group. Undeterred, they decide to participate in a world hip hop dance competition which is to be held in Las Vegas, USA. They find a choreographer, Vishnu Sir(Prabhu Dheva) who agrees to coach them, although initially he is reluctant. However, the journey is not going to be easy for them as it’s a world championship, where the best dancers from all across the world are going to try their luck. And not to forget, they also have to battle the constant ‘cheater’ jibe.

ABCD 2’s first half is excellent and makes one feel that it’ll definitely go beyond part one. The opening credits are stunning and the lead characters face their first struggle within the first 10 minutes itself. Vishnu Sir’s entry is fun and the entire portion of he being persuaded by Suresh and his gang makes for a fun watch. The entry of new dancers is again nice and the best part of the first half is the Bangalore auditions – it is superb! The twist in the tale in the intermission point is quite unexpected and intrigues the viewers. Post-intermission, the fun continues initially. But after a point, the film starts becoming unnecessarily long. Too many problems arise but they are quickly solved, which is fine. But why venture into so many sub plots in the first place? The Vishnu Sir track is fine but the rest of them could have done away with, at least a few, or should have been shortened. Also, after a point, the viewer has seen so many dance performances that the novelty and appealing factor wears off. And this is not fair, especially for those dancers who have worked pretty hard in showcasing their moves. Thankfully, the finale dance is a bit different.

Performance wise, Varun Dhawan shines and rocks. The performance here is not as good or better than Main Tera Hero, Humpty Sharma Ki Dulhania and Badlapur but is entertaining nevertheless. In emotional and dramatic scenes, his performance is quite arresting – one can’t help but concentrate simply on Varun. And obviously, his dance moves are killer! Shraddha Kapoor looks immensely cute and gives a first rate performance. She also gets a chance to exhibit her dance moves and takes full advantage of it. Post- ABCD 2, Shraddha Kapoor will definitely be seen in new light and here’s hoping the makers smartly utilize her dance moves in future! Prabhu Dheva raises laughs and also moves viewers. Thanks to Varun and Shraddha, the main focus is not on him but he does makes his presence felt firmly. Lauren Gottlieb(Olive) makes a late entry but looks stunning and gives a fine performance. And watch out for her smile! Dharmesh Yelande(Dharmesh) is excellent and contributes to the fun quotient. Punit Pathak(Vinod) has a challenging role but he performs with élan. Sushant Pujari(Vernon) is quite good. Tisca Chopra(Swati) makes an impact and so does Master Jeenit Rathi(Manu). Pooja Batra plays herself and looks like a million bucks. Murali Sharma(Shetty) is alright. Remo D’Souza, Terrence Lewis and Seema Pandey play the role of judges quite well. The surprise is Shashank Khaitan(judge at Bangalore auditions). He is the director of Humpty Sharma Ki Dulhania and acts quite nicely! Others are fine.

Sachin-Jigar’s music is contemporary and goes very well with the narrative. Bezubaan Phir Se is the best of the lot. In fact, all the songs – Sun Saathiya, Chunar, Naach Meri Jaan, Happy Hour, Tattoo, If You Hold My Hand, Hey Ganaraya and Vande Mataram – are beautifully picturized. Background score is nice too. Vijay Kumar Arora’s cinematography is top-class, especially in the Grand Canyon scenes – truly breathtaking! 3D is good but there’s definitely scope for improvement. VFX is splendid. Mayur Puri’s dialogues are simple, straight out of life and appealing. Remo Dsouza’s choreography is splendid, eye catching and a visual treat and there’s no doubt about it. His story, inspired from real life, has all the right ingredients. But screenplay(Remo Dsouza, Tushar Hiranandani) is a bit ordinary at places, especially in the second half. Same goes for Remo Dsouza’s direction. At some places, he shines while in the few scenes, he could have done a much better job. Parallels can also be drawn with Happy New Year here which also was about an Indian dance group participating in a world dance championship. But the screenplay and execution was such that the film never got repetitive or stretched at any point. That’s sadly not the case with ABCD 2. Nevertheless, a fine job by Remo the director and definitely, he’ll do a far better job in his forthcoming films as he surely has the ability!

The story of the movie:

1. Mumbai Stunners gets booed

2. Vishnu Sir’s entry

3. Suresh and gang try to persuade Vishnu Sir

4. Dharmesh and Vinod’s entry

5. All songs of the film

6. The intermission point

7. Vishnu Sir meets Swati

8. Vinnie breaks silence about her feelings

9. Vinnie-Olive talk about Suresh

10. The final dance

On the whole, ABCD 2 is a fairly entertaining ride which will definitely appeal the youth and dance lovers. Varun Dhawan, Shraddha Kapoor and Prabhu Dheva deliver brilliant performances. Choreography is splendid without doubt and the songs are beautifully shot. On the flipside, the second half is a bit long and there are too many dance performances in the film, which dilutes the impact to an extent. The movie has taken the biggest opener of the year and although it might not sustain in the coming weeks, it still might turn out to be Varun Dhawan’s first 100-crore-grosser!
