Dream Girl 2

The primary objective of a comedy movie is to make people laugh and make audiences entertained with one-liners and shrewd humour. Raaj Shaandilyaa's 'Dream Girl 2' does that and some more.

It may not be ridiculously funny or insanely witty, but the engaging exchange of dialogues and screenplay will keep a broad smile on your face for the entirety, and that's an accomplishment in my book.

My gripe is that despite having quite a stupendous ensemble fraught with infinite talent and potential, the writing here could not provide all the actors the amount of space they deserved. Other than that, this was a fun watch, regardless of its silly, crass nature.

It's a no brainer laughter riot with such a promising ensemble. Not a bad movie on the whole, you just leave with rushed feeling.

The movie and chaos was moving in the right direction, they rushed it too fast in the end. Not sure who was short of time to make it end well.

Such a huge talented list of actors wasted with no proper screen time and dialogues. Likes of Vijay Raaz., Manoj Joshi, Abhishek Banerjee deserved more dialogues and screen time.

Editing and continuity in a few scenes was it poorest and so obvious, after all it's Balaji! They are used to churning content!

If you're stressed and/or just wish to laugh, do go watch the movie. If you are a person who will nit pick, save your money!

This is a sequel to Dreamgirl but the plot remains roughly the same. In order to impress and convince Pari's (Ananya Panday) father, Karam (Ayusmann) takes up the job of a bar dancer as a girl (Pooja) and he dances so well that he ends up getting a lot of male attention and finally a marriage proposal that offers him 50 lakh rupees.

Not seeing any better deal, he agrees to it and the rest is history. But even the history remains the same as the first part. So no surprises on the story here.

What is surprising in this part is the complete transformation of Karam into Pooja while previously it was just the voice, this time it is entirely a girl.

And Ayushmann nails this transformation, nowhere he looks like a guy and the dance performances: both the songs; "Jamnapar" and "Mar jawangi" are beautifully shot and the dancing skills of Ayushmann are terrific; as graceful as any female dancer would have had.

The another good part is that barring a few over the top scenes, the entire film is so humorous; the first scene itself just got me: it opened with the "Jagran" performance on the song "Naach". With actors like Vijay Raaz, Rajpal Yadav, Paresh Rawal, Anu Kapoor, Abhishek Banerjee, Sudesh Lehri; the film was filled with plenty of punches and gigs. I was in laughs and awe the whole time.

So, watch it for all the humour from amazing pool of actors and definitely Ayushmann!!

Once again Director Raj has come up with a sequel of its super hit film Dreamgirl but this time it misses below the mark. First Dreamgirl was a perfect comedy film that entertains you with perfect storyline, best dialogues and character situation comedies. Dreamgirl 2 also has the same charm and this time with more characters and good punch lines but the story is below average as compare to the 1st one.

Even some supporting characters are wasted for just having few scenes and director seriously wasted their comic timing with average dialogues. Ayushman Khurana once again saves the film and carry the movie from start to end is what called perfect acting. Rest of the cast is average and doesn't have much to do as the story doesn't satisfy their characters as the previous one.. Anyway it's a one time watch you'll laugh at some point and get bore at some time but I still gonna say the 1st Dreamgirl is superb as compare to this one....

Excellent work on dialogue timings perfectly balanced matched and nicely presented but predictable.

.. You'll definitely get your fill of laughter.

All Characters are nicely casted and played there role well.. Once more, Ayushmaan Khurrana excelled entertain in the role of the dream girl.

Makers worked hard on presentation of work but failed at story writing. Good First half but second half is not that good.

The movie took a bad turn after the interval when the situation changed from the first half.

. Good laughter material, a finale wording or feeling for movie is that this is a one-time watch or an OTT platform material.. But overall nice.

It was a wonderfully funny family film that was a complete entertainer.
