Sarkar Raj

Sequels are dicey business. No matter how much you improvise on your new script, you cannot escape comparisons. And when you attempt a sequel of a critically acclaimed film that's a huge box-office grosser as well, it's akin to walking on a tight rope. Most importantly, post Ramgopal Varma Ki Aag, Ramgopal Varma was everyone's favorite punching bag [till Tashan dethroned Rgv Ki Aag]. "Finished", "spent force", "has-been", "Pack up" were commonly used terms for RGV. Now here's great news! Sarkar Raj supersedes the prequel and most importantly, RGV bounces back like never before. If you felt Shiva and later Satya were his finest efforts, you've got to watch Sarkar Raj. An outstanding film in all respects, this film has all it takes to emerge a major success story at the box-office.
