Be it Udta Punjab or Ae Dil Hai Mushkil or Shivaay, this year a number of Bollywood movies have embroiled themselves into controversies and it just uglier as the release date of the films inched closer. While some films turned out to be highly overrated, there were a couple of films that didn't do very well at the box office despite a good storyline. In short, this year has been a roller coaster ride for a lot of Bollywood movies. We just met Sonakshi Sinha and John Abraham, who are super busy promoting their next release - Force 2, and asked them which film was the most underrated one of this year. "I think films that are good have found their space. The one film that I can tell you is Pink. It just found it's audience and it became a movement. If you've got a good film, it will find it's audience. That's it," said John. The Dabanng girl of Bollywood couldn't agree more with John but she further went on to add, "I actually enjoyed Udta Punjab a lot. I think a lot of it got diluted because of the controversy surrounding it. When I watched the film I was pleasantly surprised. I wasn't expecting it to be that good."
Force 2 will be John’s fourth action film in a row, but the action in all the four films is different from each other. John loves being called an action hero. He doesn’t mind being typecast. He believes in ‘taking advantage of it,’ he had said in an interview. "Because of my physicality, action comes naturally to me. That’s why any filmmaker’s safest bet in this genre would be John Abraham. In a way, most of my recent films have me doing action. But all of them are different kinds of action. Look at Welcome Back, which is very over-the-top commercial, masala action. Rocky Handsome was hand-to-hand, raw action. Dishoom is more stylised and Force will introduce action of another level in Bollywood."

John and Sonakshi, who are going to seen sharing the screenspace for the first time in Force 2 are busy promoting the film. Force 2 which is a sequel to Force has John playing the role of a police officer whereas Sona plays a RAW agent in the movie. The actress seems to be in a fullon action mode after having done films like Akira and Force 2. She has already done a lot of Bollywood films and it's a rather refreshing sight to see her explore the action genre.
Force 2 also stars Tahir Raj Bhasin who made his Bollywood debut with Mardaani. The film which marked a comeback for Rani Mukerji, had him in a negative role and in Force 2 too, Tahir's character Shiv has a streak of grey shade. From what the trailer looks like, Force 2 will be high on action and Hugh end drama. But will it be as good as the prequel? Let's wait until the film releases this Friday on November 18.
