Simply put, of course, people are escaping through manholes without getting caught - but Dhoom 2 made it almost believable that it could happen, even if you were left wondering, what the hell happened to this disguise. The heists also involved just the right mix of daredevilry and logic that made it entertaining but not unbelievable. The many disguises that Aryan dons were extremely believable (with the exception of Queen Elizabeth, that still, is one of Bollywood's better renditions) - especially when he transformed into a freaking statue! Heists that were well-planned, with just the right hint of fantasy to make it entertaining but not entirely unbelievable. Dhoom 2 did it perfectly by bringing back the much-loved cop duo of Jai and Ali, and yet weaving a story that would make just as much sense, even if you missed the first film.Ģ.
