‘De De Pyaar De 2’ review

The Times of India gave the movie 3/5 stars. The review states, “Ajay Devgn delivers a self-aware and effortlessly cool performance. He embraces the jokes about his age, turning them into a source of humour and humility. Even when called buddha or uncle repeatedly, Devgn wears it like a badge of honour, reminding the audience why he still commands screen presence. Rakul Preet Singh brings energy and confidence, complementing Devgn’s understated charm.

However, their spark is dimmer this time, perhaps because the writing doesn’t give their relationship enough emotional depth.”
