Thanks Nachiketa for the post.. Nice to hear this from a Pakistani reviewer... The below mentioned lines are highlights IMO..
"In fact, it is nothing like the Bollywood films produced in India, since the entire production has an international feel to it. The jaw-dropping action scenes as well as the special effects (especially the sound) are straight from the corridor of Hollywood. Action director Lee Whittaker, Cinematographer Sanu John Varughese as well as the Special Effects directors must be commended for bringing style to Bollywood. Be it the hand-to-hand combat, the drone attacks, or the car chase sequences, all display high class standards and never let you feel that you are watching an Indian movie. "
For once, Kamal Haasan plays a character that bears resemblance to his persona. He has always been an avid dancer hence the Kathak dance sequences. Since the movie is action-based, he had to execute the action sequences as well, which he does to perfection. Unlike his other directorial ventures, he doesn't experiment this time round and essays whatever role he is playing. When he is the spy, he does everything by the book. Similarly, when he is the dancer, he walks, talks, looks and even fights (pun intended) like a dancer.

VETERAN ACTRESS TO PLAY KAMAL'S MOM!
Veteran Bollywood actress Waheeda Rehman has been roped in to play Kamal Haasan’s mom in Vishwaroopam 2. Waheeda had won the National Award for Best Actress in 1971 for her performance in Reshma Aur Shera and has won several prestigious awards including the FilmFare, Padama Bhushan and Padma Shri.
Apparently, Kamal had a meaty role for Waheeda and persuaded her to take it up following which she could not decline, say sources.
Watch out for the spectacular visual effects in Vishwaroopam 2! They have challenged Hollywood visual effects! Something very interesting and shocking surprise awaits the audience who will go spell bound 100 times more than who watched the visual effects of the first film's transformation action sequences which was considered one of the best visual effects sequences! Because many of us were not aware about that as visual effects work!!!!

Right from the time Kamal said that there will be a 'mother-son angle' in VR2, I knew it was between Wisam and his mother and NOT Omer's kid and his mother as many assumed in the Hub. The first face which came to my mind of the potential actress to play Wisam's mom was Waheeda's, specially knowing KH's fetish for yesteryear Bollywood divas for mother roles as evidenced in Hey Ram (Hema). In fact, the 'Tamil Muslim marrying a Kashmiri' tag fits Waheeda to the 'T'... :-)
