When you have a hit movie and you want to make a sequel to it, I think the responsibility even gets bigger as you are drawing more anticipation and attention than the previous one. And that to when its comedy then it becomes even tougher to match up to the standard which the production team had set and the audience had liked about. The last installment of the Hangover series failed miserably from critical point of view due to this reason and I strongly feel Certain films should not run behind the rage of making sequels to a successful prequel. The sequel to the 2011 hit YPD, this Papa-Sons triple combo this time tries too hard to please the audience. Apart from a handful of humorous scenes rest of the film suffers from over the top writing, flawed screenplay and inclusion of some unnecessary characters and props (the orangutan). Due to the lacklustre screenplay the movie even feels too long. Actingwise Papa dharmendra's comic timing is good but again his amazing persona is trapped in a blemished screenplay resulting an undignified portrayal of a superstar and legend.Total fault of the writer and the director. Hands Down... Sunny Deol did what he could do and succeeds in certain scenes. But the disappointing element was of Bobby who hardly impresses with his acting or comic timing. A versatile actor like Bobby who is already trapped in a string of flops had nothing to do and such careless is the writing and unfunny the dialogues are I thought the character was never meant for bobby deol.
The two girls shows some promise particularly Neha Sharma and Kristina Akheeva looks breathtakingly beautiful but needs to brush up her acting skills.
Anupam Kher is the biggest mistake of the movie and he is there to give you a migraine. Sir, Are you running out of movies?? Why did you say yes to a role which never holds the stance of your name or even image.
Perhaps the only saving grace of the movie is its music which has already hit the chartbusters. Deols must thank the Music directors for keeping the chances of the movie at the box office alive despite so many faults and flaws visible all over it.
To wrap up my view I would say If you are a die hard fan of the deols and love the melody of YPD2, then go for it. Otherwise You can wait for the World Television Premier which I don't think will take much longer.
