Story: Movie is a sequel to De De Pyaar De and begins where first part ended. Ashish (Ajay Devgan) and Ayesha (Rakul Preet Singh) have now moved to a bigger home in London for their future family. She wanted to inform her family about her relationship gradually and for that she flies to India.
Her father Rakesh (R Madhavan) and Anju (Gautami Kapoor) lives in Chandigarh along with his brother Rohan (Tarun Gahlot) and his wife Kittu (Ishita Dutta). Kittu is in an advanced stage of pregnancy. Ayesha plans to fly down to Ashish at the psychologically right moment. But thanks to Ishita blurting out the truth, she has to call him in earlier from London.
Assuming that Ashish might be older than a few years, they assure it’s not a problem and request a meeting. As expected, they get a jolt when they realize he is way older than they thought. It creates a rift between Ayesha and Rakesh. She is so angry with her father’s behavior that she returns to London and contemplates marrying him without her parents. What happens next is all about this movie.

Durgesh Tiwary’s View: When I watched the trailer of this film planned to watch this movie in cinemas on release date as liked the trailer and loved the first part of this film. This time, middle-aged Ashish meets the family of Ayesha, the woman he loves, and who is half his age. Can love bridge the gap between generations, or will it end in heartbreak?
In a year full of thrillers and high-octane spectacles, De De Pyaar De 2 stands tall as the only true family entertainer of 2025. It’s a film about family and one meant to be watched with family. Whether you’re a parent, a young adult, or a daughter who shares a special bond with her father, this one will speak to you in more ways than one. The film beautifully balances clap-and-whistle-worthy comedy with tear-jerking emotion and even leaves you with a subtle but strong message about love, relationships, and what truly makes a man ‘man enough’ in today’s world. And just when you think you’ve seen it all, the last 20–30 minutes hit you with one of the most emotionally satisfying climaxes seen in recent times, an absolute rollercoaster of emotions that will leave you walking out with a full heart and a huge smile. This film proves that stories of family, relationships, and love can still connect with audiences, if they’re told with truth, simplicity, and heart. The dialogues give the film a special edge. They are sharp, clever, and in everyday language, with both humor and the gravity of the situations. The film looks gorgeous too, stunning locations, stylish costumes, and slick cinematography elevate the experience
The protagonist Ajay Devgn is a delight, effortlessly switching between subtle humor and emotional restraint. R. Madhavan, on the other hand, brings soul to the story. As a father navigating complex emotions, he’s a powerhouse of warmth and vulnerability. Leading lady Rakul Preet Singh delivers her best performance yet, charming, confident, and absolutely radiant on screen. While Jaaved Jaffery leaves you rolling on the floor laughing every time he comes on the screen, Meezaan’s entry in the second half is impactful; he looks effortlessly dashing and leaves a strong impression in a limited screen time. Director Anshul Sharma infuses with heart, humor, and a sense of effortless storytelling. His vision shines through every frame bringing together a powerhouse cast and allowing each performer to leave a lasting mark.
On the negative side, the portion of Ayesha and Aditya’s affair is not half as funny as the portions before the latter’s entry into the drama. The two writers have not been able to create much comedy in the second half except towards the end. This wouldn’t have been such a big problem, but the audience expect the entire drama to be a laugh riot and, therefore, find the post-interval portion lacking. Music is found lacking as the absence of hit songs is sorely felt. Although the songs are well-tuned, there is not a single number which is a chartbuster. It often drifts, losing pace and purpose as it juggles between comedy, emotion, and social commentary. The uneven tone and sluggish stretches dilute its impact, even though flashes of wit and warmth shine through. Sharma manages to wrap it up on a grounded, feel-good note, but the film never quite finds the emotional depth or sharpness it aims for. Overall, despite its uneven tone and missing spark, the film remains an enjoyable, light-hearted sequel that reminds us love can defy age, but not always logic. It impresses with its compelling performances, relatable narrative, and an entertaining fusion of humor and drama. It may not soar as high as its first half promises, but it delivers enough laughs, charm, and gentle insight to make the ride worthwhile. My view on this film Recommended if you have liked first part.
