Nishaanchi 2

Drama Crime Hindi


After another stint in jail, Tony finds that Rinku, his one true love and hope, has been taken by his brother Dabloo. This shocks him into reforming, but Ambika drags him back into crime, with Kamal on his trail. How Manjari gets to have the last laugh, with Tony, Ambika and Kamal at the forefront, forms the rest of the two-part gangster drama.

Nishaanchi: Part 2 features arguably the best climax that Anurag Kashyap has ever orchestrated. We discuss the two-part experience as a whole, Kashyap’s modern update to old-school Bollywood tropes, and the magnetism of Monika Panwar’s Manjari. We also discuss the film’s broader themes of revenge, the stylistic influences, and welcome Kashyap’s long-awaited return to form.
