Once Upon a Time in Mumbai Dobaara
The film was released on 15 August 2013, to coincide with the national holiday on the eve of Independence Day in India. The release date of the film was pushed further by the producers to avoid clashing with Rohit Shetty's film Chennai Express, which released on 9 August 2013. This is the third collaboration between Akshay Kumar and Sonakshi Sinha as a pair (after 2012 films Rowdy Rathore and Joker), and the first between Sonakshi Sinha and Imran Khan.
Once Upon A Time In Mumbai Dobaara! (abbreviated as OUATIMD and previously known as Once Upon A Time In Mumbaai Again) is a 2013 Indian crime gangster film directed by Milan Luthria and produced by Ekta Kapoor and Shobha Kapoor. A sequel to the 2010 film Once Upon a Time in Mumbaai, the film stars Akshay Kumar, Sonakshi Sinha and Imran Khan in leading roles and Sonali Bendre in a supporting role.
Plot-
The movie commences from where the previous film ended with Shoaib
Khan being the reigning don after successfully assassinating his mentor,
thus earning the respect and reverence of the people apparently. 12
years later, he is still the charismatic and suave man with womanising
skills who has extended his empire upto the Middle east on the west. His
sole companions and friends are Javed (Sarfaraz Khan), who oversees his
illegal and shady works for him, his old-time love Mumtaz (Sonali
Bendre) and Aslam (Imran Khan), a youth spotted by Shoaib during one of
his visits to the slums, where he once spent the early years of his
life.
Now much older, Shoaib (Akshay Kumar) comes back to Bombay
after years to finish off Rawal (Mahesh Manjrekar), another gangster.
Although the city still being his first love, a rising starlet, Jasmine
(Sonakshi Sinha) has caught the fancy of Shoaib's heart. Jasmine is a
forthcoming movie star, whom Shoaib makes famous, and showers her with
gifts. In due time, this passion takes the shape of obsession for
Shoaib. On the other hand, he sends Aslam along with another trustworthy
goon, Jimmy, to finish off Rawal. As they arrive, Rawal switches the
lights off and Jimmy unknowingly kills Rawal's apparent girlfriend
instead.
Rawal flees, and soon, Jimmy is arrested. The police keeps him in for
less than 10 minutes and lets him go. The police's plan is to make it
look as if Jimmy has turned on Shoaib, so that Shoaib arrives to finish
off Jimmy, and then they will capture him. Aslam suspects this, and
decides to go get Jimmy himself instead of Shoaib. As Aslam arrives, the
police gather around and attack. Aslam gets Jimmy, however is
interrupted by an police inspector. Shoaib appears and injures the
inspector, before shooting Jimmy dead after accusing him of betrayal.
Shoaib and Aslam escape from the scene after a long chase by the police.
By this time, not only has Shoaib fell in love with Jasmine, Aslam
has also befriended her. Slowly, however, this friendship apparently
turns into love. When Shoaib decides to gift Jasmine a house, she
realizes that he loves her, and straightly tells him that she considers
him as a friend. Disappointed Shoaib, violently reacts and makes her
leave. Angered, he goes to her film shoot and destroys some of the set.
Jasmine, realizing that the only way nothing will get worse decides to
return to Shoaib. As Aslam tries to confess his love to her, she tells
him that they cannot meet again. By then, Shoaib sends Aslam to pick
Jasmine up, unknown to Aslam, who is shocked to see her as Shoaib's
love.
At the same time, Rawal enters and attacks Jasmine.
