Plot[edit]

A year after the events of the previous film, Mitchie Torres returns to Camp Rock for another summer year, along with her friends and her love-interest Shane Gray and his brothers of the rock band 'Connect 3' (Nate and Jason). Along the way, she and her mother Connie notice that a new camp, Camp Star, has opened across the lake. Mitchie and her friends also notice that there are fewer campers than last year, and attempt to lift everyone's spirits at the Opening Jam. Camp Star sends parachutes to Camp Rock with chocolates and marshmallows, inviting them to a bonfire at their camp, but Brown Cesario is less than enthusiastic, as Camp Star's director is Axel Turner, whom he once kicked out of his rock band, the 'Wet Crows'.

Mitchie and the rest of the campers arrive at Camp Star, which seems to be much more flashy and sophisticated than Camp Rock. The bonfire starts and Luke Williams from Camp Star performs with several backup dancers. As the song ends, Dana Turner's bracelet flies from her hand and hits Nate Gray in the eye. Nate returns it after the bonfire and the two instantly feel a connection. Axel then offers the Camp Rock counselors jobs at Camp Star, doubling their salary, and encourages the Camp Rock campers to move to Camp Star. Very few campers switch, including Tess Tyler, but many counselors move to Camp Star. Left with no staff, Brown decides to close Camp Rock, but Mitchie persuades everyone to not give up, and she and her friends take on the newly vacant counseling roles.

Although things are tough at first, Mitchie and the rest of the counselors settle into their roles, and become determined to save the camp. They revisit Camp Star, and the two camps face off. Axel sees the showdown and suggests a televised competition game show between the two camps for Camp Wars; Mitchie is reluctant at first, but eventually agrees after some persuasion from her friends, realizing it could gain Camp Rock the publicity it needs to stay open. However, Brown is angry, and tells Connie that he thinks that the competition is a trap in order for Axel to get back at him. Overhearing their conversation, Mitchie pours herself into making sure that they win the game, which frustrates Shane, who has only returned to Camp Rock in order to spend more time with her.

The next day, Mitchie wakes up to find everyone rehearsing for Camp Wars, thanks to Shane. He and his brothers motivate everyone to work harder. Mitchie and Shane then spend the day together, but Nate has trouble trying to tell Dana how he feels. He decides to sing instead and goes to Camp Star to serenade her, gaining her affection, before being caught by Axel, who is her father. Later that night, Jason Gray and the junior campers sneak into Camp Star, and spy on Luke and Tess performing. As the night of Camp Wars begins and Camp Star deliver a slick, stylish performance; Brown finds out that Axel has been encouraging the public to vote for Camp Star through text messaging. All the members of Camp Rock then perform together, accompanied by a video montage of their summer, but Camp Star ends up winning Camp Wars. Back at Camp Rock, everyone gathers at the bonfire for one last time before leaving, but many members of Camp Star, including Tess and Dana come to join Camp Rock, ensuring they have enough campers to continue for another summer.

Plot[edit]

The film starts off with Joseph “Joe” Mascarenhas (Arjun Rampal) being introduced to the audience. Joe is now a judge at a successful reality show and the working partner of Club Bar & Blues, where he often meets his other friend from the band Magik, Kedar 'KD' Zaveri (Purab Kohli), better known as Killer Drummer. As the story goes on, KD narrates how Aditya “Adi” Shroff (Farhan Akhtar), Magik's lead singer, left the city and its comforts due to a nightmare haunting him and a painful experience, and has been living for 5 years in a small village near Shillong, Meghalaya.

Jiah Sharma (Shraddha Kapoor), a young music programmer, lives with her father, Pandit Vibhuti Sharma (Kumud Mishra), who was once a great Sarod player, and is referred to by Jiah affectionately as “Baba”. She finds, one day, that a young boy, Uday Brijkishore Mishra (Shashank Arora), has come over to Baba, and wants to learn music and the Sarod from him. However, since he is too scared to even listen to how perfectly Uday is playing the Sarod due to memories of his late son instantly being triggered off, Panditji leaves the room. Jiah convinces Uday to continue his struggles and assures him that his harsh days would come to an end. Uday also learns about Jiah's singing talent, and plays a Sarod composition of the song Jiah recorded. This composition is recorded by Jiah in a CD which she asks Uday to give to the Club Bar & Blues studio, headed by Joe, little realizing that giving the CD would bring about a huge twist of fate and also reunite band members of Magik in the process.

Meanwhile, Adi is visited by Joe and KD on his birthday, along with Adi's wife Sakshi (Prachi Desai) and Joe's wife Debbie (Shahana Goswami). Adi also finds his son, Rob, who he has named after Magik's only late member, Rob Nancy (Luke Kenny), sleeping in the car and wakes him up. Soon after, as they gather together, Joe and KD find Adi's poetry in his diary, and ask him if he has created a tune, to which he agrees to play it. The next morning, however, a free talk between the trio swiftly develops into a past hunting argument, and it is soon revealed that Adi is tormented by the failure of his music label in Mumbai, which, along with the money invested, also took away a young aspiring artist's life. KD blames Adi for trying to run away, while Adi ends up accusing Joe of going money-centric. However, the argument ceases soon, and Joe asks Adi to calm down as it is his birthday. They finally reconcile after an adventure. Sakshi asks Adi to return to Mumbai, but he refuses. The next day, Adi bids a goodbye to his friend, and KD promises to return with Adi's bike and friends in 3 days. The film flashes back to Magik's old days.

Adi returns to his old life and recalls how a young boy, Rahul Sharma (Priyanshu Painyuli), wanted to give him a demo tape of his recordings, but Adi's losses and rude behaviour towards him forced the young boy to commit suicide. He still hasn't gotten over the nightmares, but soon also stands to lose his hard-gained self-help world in the village when his cooperative, his farm, and his school, all catch fire. Left with nothing, he travels to Cherrapunji, where Jiah meets him. Adi falls unconscious when Jiah tends to him. The next day, KD discovers him, egging him on to return to Mumbai and try moving on. Uday and Jiah are called by Joe to the studio, where Jiah meets Adi and later performs her song live in the studio.

Magik members find the song really good and suggest Jiah sing in an upcoming concert, but telling a lie to Baba on that pretext shames Jiah into recalling how Panditji criticized modern day music, calling it a destroyer of the soulfulness and purity of the art. She runs away from the concert. A scuffle between Joe and KD soon brings up truth to the surface, and Adi and his friends eventually take a shocking retreat when they come to know that Panditji is Jiah's father, and that Rahul, the boy who committed suicide, is Jiah's brother. Amidst a highly tense atmosphere, while Joe refuses to cooperate with Adi and KD in their thoughts of apologizing to Jiah, the story flashes back to 5 years ago when Rahul tried to attack Adi. The resulting fight attracted a threat from Rahul, following which Rahul committed suicide by the time Adi and KD heard his CD and decided to call him. Jiah learns of the truth and breaks off all contact with Magik and Uday, and recalls how Baba chided Rahul for ruining the art of Indian music despite his pleadings and valid excuses.Adi learns of some problem in the town in Meghalaya where he had been living, and this causes a rift between him and Sakshi, who is upset that he does not have time for her. Adi lands at the airport, where he encounters Jiah again, but they are unable to get over Rahul's death. Finally, after some hard thinking, Jiah visits Adi in the village, and convinces him to stop brooding over Rahul's suicide, stating that he was so dejected with life that he ended up messing with Adi's life as well. Adi visits the camp but there is not much funding available, so Joe and KD come up with the idea of organizing a rock concert with some known bands to raise collective funds. However, as soon as Mahender, the state welfare board chief, who had earlier gotten into an egoistic argument with Adi, comes to know of this, he orders an ambush on the concert venue, thus ruining everything.

That very day, Panditji gets a call from a Zee News reporter and is shocked to learn that Jiah is at the venue of attack. During an angry conversation, Jiah vents out to Baba that it was he who had killed Rahul by not providing him the motivation that he needed badly in life. Panditji breaks down, and drops the phone. Meanwhile, a contestant from Joe's reality show, Mann Jyot (Dinesh Kumar), brings some equipment as a replacement of the broken setup. The concert becomes a success even as Adi gets Jiah to overcome her fears and apprehensions. The village recovers from its crisis as Mahender is forced to release funds, and Magik reunites eventually, while Uday is a new member and Jiah becomes a singing sensation.

Production[edit]

Development[edit]

After the release of the first film, a sequel was planned to be made. However, a follow-up went through prolonged development hell for almost eight years. According to Arjun this was because 'it was important to figure out the story.'^[5] The idea of the sequel was to have the same characters but explore where they are now after eight years.^[5] Pubali Chaudhuri spent three years writing the script.^[6] During the development phase, the film was initially intended to take place in Himachal Pradesh. But following the attacks of Manipuri students in Delhi, the producers decided to alter the film's setting. Saudagar was watching the incident on news when Farhan pinged him up where the two discussed on the issue. Neither him or Farhan had been to the North East before but Purab who had visited many places there, so he suggested Meghalaya and Shillong, as Shillong is also called the 'rock capital.' Initially, the decision was met with some resistance. Saudagar says that the main intent was to bring the North East to Hindi cinema and also highlights the issue people in the state faces.^[6]

The producers decided that there'd be no love relationship between the two leads. Saudagar stated, 'Rock On 2 is not about an extramarital affair. It’s a story of human bonds and is based on modern relationships.'^[7]

Pre-production[edit]

—Producer Farhan Akhtar on the decision to make the film in Northeast India.^[8]

In 2011, Shujaat Saudagar received a call from producer Ritesh Sidhwani who wanted him to be a second unit director in Don 2 (2011). Ever since then the two kept in touch with each other. Then in 2013, Ritesh once again approached him to see if he would be interested in helming a sequel to Rock On!! as a lead director to which he agreed.^[6] Saudagar admits that he is not in favor of sequels, but grew interested in this one after reading the coherent script.^[6]

Producer Farhan Akhtar had always wanted to make a film in Northeast India and says the film is a tribute to the people of the North-East and an attempt to bring the whole region into mainstream pop culture.^[8] Also the film has been called a 'visual treat' under the parts shot in Northeast India.

Casting[edit]

Aside from newcomers Shraddha Kapoor and Shashank Arora, the principal cast from the original film all returned for the sequel. The only member from the film's band Magik who did not return for the follow-up was Luke Kenny as his character died in the first film, while Arjun Rampal, Farhan Akhtar and Purab Kohli all reprised their respective roles making it a rare occurrence in Bollywood. The only other Bollywood sequel to have the three leads return for a sequel was Pyaar Ka Punchnama 2.^[9] After Rampal won National Film Award for Best Supporting Actor at the 56th National Film Awards in 2008 for his role in Rock On!!, he rejected all offers thereafter to play a lead role as a musician.^[10]

There were offers to play the role of a musician but I did not want to do it. I did not want to do it (musician role) because I had done it (with Rock On) beyond my expectations. I had surpassed the expectations. There was always talk about Rock On 2, so I wanted to preserve it.^[10]

Shraddha Kapoor plays Jiah Sharma, a keyboard player, programmer and a singer.^[11] Kapoor is an ardent fan of the original film and cites the recurring theme of music band and friendship [in the first film] as her prime reason wanting to star in the sequel. After watching the movie in theater, she told her father that if there be made a sequel, she would be in it.^[12] When she first heard that the filmmakers were making sequel, she called up producer Ritesh Sidhwani if she could be considered for a part. She met Sidhwani and the production team who mainly wanted to hear her sing.^[12] She gave a singing audition to the film's composer Shankar-Ehsaan-Loy.^[13] Although Kapoor had sung before in her previous films, this marks the first time that the singer-actress sings rock songs.^[14] Whilst growing up, she took training in classical music from her grandmother, Pandharinath Kolhapure, but had to cease training after her grandmother died. For the film, Shradha undertook vocal training with Samantha Edwards, a jazz vocalist, in order to adapt the rock genre correctly.^[15] Her biggest inspiration as a singer are her grandmother Lata Mangeshkarji and her mother Shivangi Kapoor, née Kolhapure.^[15] She said that part of what inspired her to star in the film was watching Farhan Akhtar in the original film write his own songs and perform them.^[15] Arjun Rampal was a little skeptic and grew wary when he first heard about Kapoor's involvement in the film since 'she is from a different generation'. But, upon hearing her vocals, it instead provided him inspiration.^[5]

Shraddha says she and her character, Jiah shares little resemblance. While she had a sheltered upbringing and would always travel with companies, Jiah on the other hand, is a loner and reclusive character who chooses to remain aloof and would rather live and travel alone. Director Saudagar would make her undergo a training process in which she spent as much time alone as possible with herself in order for her to connect to her character. Travelling to Shillong was in a way helpful for this process as she was away from her family. In some instances, she would put up 'do not disturb' sign on the door.

I live with my family, so this meant that no one could knock on my door and come in while the sign was up. I needed to do this because Jiah is very aloof. She taught me to be alone. Jiah just packs her bags and takes off. I feel that I’ve learned how to be by myself, just reading a book or listening to music. I think that's important.^[12]

The film also marks the third time that Farhan plays a father in a feature film after Shaadi Ke Side Effects (2014) and in Wazir (2016).^[8]

The film also includes budding star Priyanshu Painyuli who plays Shraddha's brother and his role involves a twist in the story^[16]

Principal photography[edit]

Principal photography began in Shillong, Meghalaya on 6 October 2015 and the film was shot in numeours other locations in the eastern part of the state, including Umniuh Village in Ri-Bhoi district, Cherrapunjee and Laitlum.^[17] Prior to filming, a memorandum of understanding was signed between Excel Entertainment and the Government of Meghalaya in July 2015.^[18] Since the script demanded picturesque locations with lots of mountains, Ritesh Sidhwani chose Shillong its adjacent places in the state of Meghalaya to be the ideal locations. Sidhwani visited the state in February 2015 for scouting filming locations.^[19] In an interview with The Northeast Today, Akhtar stated that Shillong was the natural choice because of its close history with music saying 'we all know that Shillong has a huge history with rock music and it was an obvious choice for the movie,'^[20] while Saudagar said this was due to the city's passion for rock music.^[7] The film was initially set to take place in Himachal Pradesh.^[6] By August 2015, the whole cast and crew had arrived in the city to begin production. Farhan mingled with the people in the villages in order to understand their way of life.^[18]

In October 2015, Kapoor flew to Mumbai after an internal injury in her eye – an unknown object flew into her eye which caused a scratch in her cornea. After her treatment, she returned to the city the same month to continue filming.^[21]

'In June 2016, while shooting a live concert sequence, Arjun Rampal and Purab Kohli got into a major fight due to creative differences which resulted in the shooting getting stalled for nearly an hour. The incident took place at the Gateway of India in Mumbai where the film was being wrapped with a song shoot. Farhan Akhtar – who at first was oblivious to the upheaval situation – when heard about the incident met the two men in their respective vanity vans and was able to calm them down. The shoot then resumed thereafter and went on smoothly with all three actors returning to the stage.'^[22] However, Saudagar rebuffed these allegations saying that such incident never took place.^[23]

The film had to undergo ten days of reshoots just two weeks before its premiere, making it a rare occurrence in Bollywood. According to an undisclosed source by the Deccan Chronicle, this was done in order to enhance the film.^[24] Such claim was also nevertheless dismissed by Saudagar but said that there some delays in shooting due to rain in Shillong.^[23] Additionally, shooting for the 'You Know What I Mean' song took place in Madh Island in Mumbai.^[25] Pre-production took place for 77 days while filming lasted for a total of 66 days,^[26][11] ending on 17 June 2016.^[27]

Post-production[edit]

Due to part of a Hindi dialogue being spoken unclear by a character from Meghalaya, the CBFC requested the producers to re-dub the dialogues for clarity.^[28]

Release[edit]

The film was released in theaters in India on 11 November 2016. The film was passed with a UA certificate by the CBFC with almost no cuts.^[28] On 8 November, three days before the film's release, Prime MinisterNarendra Modi announced that the country's two currencies – ₹500 and ₹1000 – would be demonetized from the next day onwards as a means to counter fake currency and exterminate black money and corruption.^[29] This would mean that it would not be possible for patrons to purchase tickets from box office using the old notes until Thursday, 10 November, when new ₹500 and ₹2000 notes will be issued. Ticket buyers would also sway away from buying tickets due to limited sources of money and from the other available option of purchasing tickets, via online, since a 'convenience fee' is charged for such method. In order to curb this problem, the film partnered with theater chain PVR Cinemas where ticket buyers will be able to evade paying convenience fees in the company's website and app respectively.^[30][31]

The release date was almost postponed following the demonetization of the said currencies as it would have caused hindrance and limit the purchase of tickets by patron's. However, this decision was later scrapped since the film had already been released in Gulf and such decision would lead to piracy.^[32] The weekend's two other releases – Saansein and 30 Minutes – were however rescheduled.^[33]

Marketing[edit]

While the film is predominantly aimed at younger demographics, Excel Entertainment carried out a marketing plan in order to appeal to a much wider audience.^[34] The film recouped ₹8–10 crore from various brand tie-ups alone.^[34] The first poster was released on 2 September.^[35] A live concert by the stars and music directors was held in National Sports Club of India in Mumbai on 17 September, for the album launch.^[36] Akhtar and Kapoor, along with members of the former's Farhan Live band embarked on a nationwide concert tour such as in Bangalore, Aurangabad, Maharashtra on 2 November and Hyderabad on 6 November. Akhtar performed at the annual 2016 NH7 Weekender held in Bhoirymbong in Ri-Bhoi district, Meghalaya from 21–22 October.^[37] The first trailer was launched on 24 October in presence of the cast members. In October, Arjun Rampal, Farhan Akhtar, Shraddha Kapoor and Prachi Desai made an appearance on The Kapil Sharma Show.^[38] On 8 November, the band held a concert at one of University of Delhi's Ramjas College in New Delhi. The band were originally set to perform in one of the University's other college, Kirori Mal College, which is the alma-mater of Shraddha Kapoor's father, Shakti Kapoor. But permissions were not granted for performing there due to unavailability of the place on the ground that the staff council allow concerts only during the fest and not for any other event.^[39] Due to her commitments over the film, Shraddha decided to put a hold for her shooting schedule her upcoming film, Haseena, until December 2016 in order for her to promote the sequel more robustly.^[40] She also delayed a flight to the United States in September 2016 for her Half Girlfriend shooting schedule for the same reason.^[41]

The film signed with 10 various brand associations which served as promotional partners, such as Hexa from Tata Motors, Amul, Boat Speakers, Regal Shoes, Nutrilite, Vodafone, Spunk Apparels, Cromā, hike Messenger and Zippo.^[34][42]

Soundtrack[edit]

Rock On 2 Movie Download Moviescounter

The film's accompanying soundtrack on the film is composed by Shankar-Ehsaan-Loy. Akhtar and Kapoor sang all parts of their respective songs.^[44] The soundtrack was as pivotal as the script according to Saudagar. They didn't want just a few hit songs. Shankar composed the music side-by-side when Chaudhuri was working on the script.^[6] The soundtrack also features music from Shillong-based band Somersault.^[45]

Track listing[edit]

Reception[edit]

Box office[edit]

Rock On 2 Movie Download Full Hd

According to Koimoi.com, since the film is a sequel to a successful prequel, the film is expected to post a 'decent opening week' of around ₹35 crore (US$5.1 million) to as high as ₹40 crore (US$5.8 million) on its opening day.^[46][47]International Business Times pointed out that the continued run of Ae Dil Hai Mushkil and Shivaay as well as the ban of the use of ₹500 and ₹1000 currencies were all (negative) factors in determining the film's opening performance.^[48] The film is releasing across approximately 1,700 screens the same day as Chaar Sahibzaade: Rise of Banda Singh Bahadur, making it a rare occurrence in Bollywood that two sequels are releasing on the same date.^[49]

The film opened Friday, 11 November, across approximately 700 screens, earning approximately ₹2.02 crore (US$290,000) and witnessed an above-average start by occupying 5–10% of seats on its opening day.^[50][51][52] The prime factor for the film's low performance was the demonetization of the two currencies as people nationwide were more pre-occupied with depositing, exchanging and withdrawing the currencies and the money would be allocated to other needful resources other than movie tickets since people would want to forgo waiting in long queues as bank would constantly run out of cash.^[53] Producer Sidhwani lamanted on the performance saying, 'We have made a beautiful film and by the time announcement was made, it was Wednesday and the prints were already out. We couldn't afford to push the release date as the privacy laws in our country are not strong enough to protect the movie from getting leaked. Our two years of efforts would have been wasted.' He also pointed out that had the postponement decision been made a week before, then they would have gone with it.^[53] The film was declared a flop by Box Office India because of demonetization.

Critical reception[edit]

The film garnered polarized reception from critics. Praise was aimed at the cast's performance and Marc Koninckx's cinematography, while its screenplay and soundtrack received negative reception.^[54][55]

The Economic Times lauded the film giving it 4½ stars out of 5 and writing that the film is pretty much the most engaging and authentic sequel to come out of Bollywood in recent memory.^[56] Rohit Vats of The Hindustan Times wrote, 'Rock On 2 might not have a strong conflict in the storyline, but it definitely works as the narrative of a unique camaraderie among the boys.'^[57][40][9]
