Speaking of the high point of 'Tum Bin 2', it’s a relief to not see actors prancing around shirtless or in bikini tops to flaunt their assets for a change. But can an ‘old-fashioned’ tale appeal to the Tinder generation that is lured into judging concepts like commitment and sacrifices? It certainly does and in fact comes as a breath of fresh air, albeit with an over-sentimental second half that drags incessantly. Interestingly, Sinha retains the pulse of the original – ‘melancholy’ and breathes new life into it by altering the story a bit and casting fresh faces with most doing justice to his sensibility. The second instalment is an earnest remake of the original with a few minor twists. Review: Tum Bin 2 is neither a sequel, nor a sob fest but Anubhav Sinha’s tribute to his own 2001 surprise hit ‘Tum Bin’. His companionship heals her wounds and almost mends her broken heart, until fate comes knocking…
