After the events of the first film, Ashish Mehra and Ayesha Khanna are living together in London. When Ayesha travels to Chandigarh for a family celebration, she decides to tell her parents about her relationship. What begins as a simple confession spirals into a storm when her father discovers that Ashish is much older than he expected. Hurt feelings, clashing egos, and a runaway wedding plan set the stage for a merry mix of confrontations and reconciliations.
Story And Screenplay
Luv Ranjan’s story, with screenplay by Tarun Jain and Luv Ranjan, keeps the franchise’s signature tone intact. The first half moves with zippy momentum, balancing banter and bite as age gap dynamics collide with small town pride. Smart callbacks and self aware jokes land well, and the intermission arrives on a playful high. The second half aims bigger with surprise twists and escalating chaos. Some narrative leaps feel far fetched, and a few gags stretch credibility, yet the emotional beats keep the film grounded enough to care about these people and their choices.
Direction
Anshul Sharma steers the sequel with a light, confident touch. The pacing rarely sags, scenes snap into one another, and the tonal blend of comedy and family drama mostly holds. The director smartly stages key face offs between Ashish and Ayesha’s father, letting generational values and pride clash without losing charm. Even when the plot goes wild, the staging stays clear and audience friendly.
Performances
Ajay Devgn is steady and assured, delivering sly expressions and patiently timed punchlines. R Madhavan is terrific, layering wounded fatherly authority with vulnerability and wit. Rakul Preet Singh dazzles in both presence and performance, especially in emotionally charged exchanges that test Ayesha’s resolve. Meezaan Jafri energizes the post interval stretch with confident timing. Gautami Kapoor offers credible support, while Jaaved Jaaferi reliably elevates the laughter quotient. Suhasini Mulay steals a moment with effortless grace.
Music And Craft
The soundtrack is functional and neatly placed, with Raat Bhar and Baabul Ve standing out. Hitesh Sonik’s background score keeps the commercial pulse alive. The glossy frames, stylish costumes, and clean editing reinforce the film’s breezy, contemporary vibe without distracting from the central conflicts.
De De Pyaar De Two is a charming, star powered crowd pleaser that wins on performances, pace, and plenty of relatable father daughter and partners in love friction. The second half swings for the fences and not every risk lands, but the finale ties feelings and fun together with enough warmth to send audiences home smiling. Box office prospects look bright on the back of strong word of mouth and repeat friendly humor.
