Weak story, weak screenplay and worst acting by All 3 characters. This is disaster if I will compare the same with 1st part. Not sure what they all seen in this story line up . The Jimmy Shergill character is totally waste. He is not able to so any justice from his role.
This story could have been better but it seems like the director wanted to finish in hurry hence they just focus on to make this movie in one go and was reliaying on previous part success.
Rani, Rishu and abhimanyu all acted like b grade movie seriously. Who play Snake & ladder in their first night. Who Buy 10bkg Tomatos . Disappointed 😞

Rani Kashyap is now living in Agra as a beautician while Rishi is on the run. She has trapped Abhimanyu and Rishi is being tormented by his landlady, Poonam. As Rani and Rishi find it hard to meet as they evade the cops, enters Mrityunjay Paswan. The unsolved murder of Neel has already pricked his uncle Mrityunjay and he has vowed to catch Rishi and Rani. As the case gets all too personal, once again Dinesh Pandit's work comes to the aid of the couple but this time, there is Abhimanyu too. Will the couple continue to evade the cops or get caught, forms rest of the story.
There were several good ideas sprinkled all over and I cannot deny that. The problem is those stuff doesn't come together to shape this attempt into a good film. I had issues with the previous film as well and definitely did not keep any expectations from the sequel, even then the uneven writing that keeps on getting way too ambitious, ends up as a tedious watch. Sunny Kaushal's Abhimanyu is half baked and though his backstory is revealed eventually, there is barely any chemistry between him and Tapsee's Rani to make this work. Neither there is an attempt to showcase how Rani traps Abhimanyu. He just loves her as much as Rishi does and that becomes the justification.
A lot of cinematic liberties have been taken and it definitely sounded good on paper. On screen, it all falls flat as the entire investigation is presented to be weak. There is only so much actors can do to dramatically elevate the drama. This is what I meant about the good things sprinkled all over and these individual moments definitely look good. With a better screenplay, probably this one had a chance to be decent instead it leaves the actors with very little help and ends up wasting couple of good ideas which deserved better execution.

Phir Aayi Hasseen Dillruba relocates from the sleepy town of Jwalapur to the city of Agra while attempting to recapture its predecessor's dark, edgy charm. Written by Kanika Dhillon and directed by Jayprad Desai, the movie has all the ingredients to be a thrilling ride, and with the addition of a formidable new adversary and obsessed lovers, the stakes are significantly raised. A dogged cop, Montu (Jimmy Shergill) is hot on Rani and Rishu's heels, spelling doom for the duo because he is the slain ex-lover Neel's chacha, making the case personal for him.
Despite the initial promise, the execution is lacking, and the script tries to pack too much, resulting in illogical decisions and unconvincing outcomes. The film's focus shifts from the intriguing mystery of the first instalment to a more straightforward chase, diluting the suspenseful elements that made the original compelling. The cat-and-mouse game between Rani, Rishu, and the police becomes predictable, lacking the edge-of-the-seat tension that Vinil Mathew's outing delivered.
While there are moments of intrigue, the narrative often meanders, bogged down by unnecessary subplots (including murders) and convoluted twists. The screenplay's attempts at clever dialogue and literary allusions (the pulpy crime novel background, a highlight of the first film) often feel over the top this time around, detracting from the overall impact. At 132 minutes, the film moves at a decent pace, but the plot points leave many questions unanswered.
Vikrant Massey shines as Rishu, with a commendable character arc from the first film. Taapsee Pannu brings a captivating energy to her role, although her performance in the first instalment was more subtly nuanced. Sunny Kaushal is decent as the meek but intense Abhimanyu. The two actors' on-screen dynamic is compelling. Aditya Srivastav and Jimmy Shergill are underutilized, despite Shergill's impactful scenes. The cinematography is a redeeming factor, capturing the essence of Agra.
Phir Aayi Hasseen Dillruba is engaging, if not awe-inspiring, and has some entertaining moments. While it maintains a stylish aesthetic and a talented cast, the film ultimately lacks the originality and suspense required to truly captivate audiences. With some tighter writing and more focused storytelling, this could have been a memorable sequel.

Phir Aayi Haseen Dillruba is a sequel that struggles to replicate the intrigue and complexity of its predecessor. While the film attempts to delve deeper into the twisted world of its characters, it ultimately falls short in delivering a satisfying narrative.
The sequel picks up where the first film left off, with Rani (Taapsee Pannu) and Rishu (Vikrant Massey) entangled in a web of deceit and manipulation. However, the novelty of the first film's plot twists is replaced by a sense of déjà vu. The constant back-and-forth between reality and illusion becomes tiresome, and the audience is left questioning the purpose of revisiting this convoluted story.
While Taapsee Pannu maintains her magnetic screen presence, the characters of Rani and Rishu feel underdeveloped. Their motivations remain unclear, and their actions often defy logic. The supporting cast, including Sunny Kaushal, fails to leave a lasting impression, further weakening the overall impact of the film.
The film's plot is convoluted and often defies credibility. The constant twists and turns become more of a gimmick than a suspenseful element. The screenplay struggles to balance the complex narrative with character development, resulting in a disjointed viewing experience.
Phir Aayi Haseen Dillruba had the potential to explore the psychological depths of its characters and offer a fresh perspective on the themes of love, obsession, and betrayal. Unfortunately, the film opts for shock value and convoluted plot twists over substance. While it may entertain some viewers with its over-the-top drama, it ultimately fails to deliver a satisfying cinematic experience.

The film stars Vikrant Massey, Taapsee Pannu, Sunny Kaushal, and Jimmy Sheirgill in a romantic thriller that effectively delivers on its promise.
The best part of the film is how it keeps you guessing with its plot twists, making it hard to predict what will happen next. Although the ending was predictable, as most of us could see where it was heading, the twists along the way were well-executed and aligned with the direction and script.
In my opinion, Vikrant Massey's role lacked depth and impact, as Sunny and Taapsee commanded most of the screen time. His performance lacked energy and presence, and he felt more like a third wheel than a central character throughout the film.
Jimmy Sheirgill's performance was also underwhelming, as he didn't fully embody the role of an angry cop seeking revenge for his nephew's death.
Overall, Taapsee and Sunny's acting was impressive, and the script was solid. However, it lacked the depth of dialogue seen in the previous film, *Hasseen Dillruba,* and the first part of the film was slow to build up. However, the second half picked up the pace, delivering a far more engaging experience with its thrills and twists.
