Delivering a strong, intense performance, Kumar plays the vigilante with a sense of purpose and menace, cementing his reputation as a "sequel king" in the action genre.
Gabbar Is Back isn’t a great film. It’s not even Akshay Kumar’s best action film ( Holiday remains superior). But it is an entertaining, angry, and oddly satisfying watch—especially if you’re in the mood for vigilante justice.
Marking his Hindi debut, Krish ensured the film was a "commercial film with a cause," maintaining a fast pace.
Enter Inspector Shivani Mathur (Sonakshi Sinha), the cop tasked with stopping him. And then there’s the corrupt builder-turned-politician Digvijay Patil (an excellent Ronit Roy), who becomes Gabbar’s ultimate nemesis.
