Baaghi 2 has become 2018's highest opening day grosser, establishing Tiger Shroff as a star with tremendous box office appeal on par with that of the best. Baaghi 2 is also his first hit in two year, after the back to back debacles of A Flying Jatt and Munna Michael. Like the first Baaghi, the sequel provides the young star with a penchant for martial arts skills with much opportunities to display his prowess, only that he is given a much bigger scope and arena to do so.
If you have seen the movie, you know that the final 20 minutes of the movie is totally insane with Tiger Shroff going full on Rambo in these sequences, killing villains left, right and centre and defying all laws of physics in the process. If you have a thing for such mindless action sequences, then Baaghi 2 is for you. Even if you are not, you can't help but admire Tiger Shroff's dedication in these action scenes.
And like us, even Tiger's Bollywood colleagues are also mesmerised by his stunts, like Akshay Kumar, Hrithik Roshan, Suneil Shetty, Karan Johar, Kriti Sanon. Some of them even compared him to Tony Jaa. Here are some of their reactions on Twitter,
Hrithik Roshan
