#SonOfSardaar2 :From brainrot to no-brain cinema. No laughs, no logic & a comedy without comedy. Even #AjayDevgn felt as disinterested as his dance steps. Only #DeepakDobariyal & #RaviKishan manage to shine a bit in this cringefest. Bored to the core – A sequel no one asked for😒 pic.twitter.com/aTu02yGJok

Buddy, I genuinely respect your honesty and love for your favourite @ajaydevgn you criticize his wrong choice. Nowadays he is doing comfort films, as we know he is the most hard working actor but from the last 5 years he is more like a businessman. @ADfanatic_New https://t.co/0Ix4xiKsDJ

Meanwhile, Dhadak 2, featuring Siddhant Chaturvedi and Triptii Dimri, seems to have struck a stronger chord with viewers.
Both SonofSardaar2 and Dhadak2 are unnecessary sequels nobody asked for. Also Dhadak 2 is a South film remake. Hoping Bollywood's sequel and remake fever will end

Dhadak 2 is a bold, powerful and often incendiary caste-crossed romance https://t.co/8XtF6dTyfi

dhadak 2 is better than the original in terms of giving the female lead a voice, and a very loud voice indeed. a very raw film, no over the top gyaan, just representation of reality. even after the CBFC cuts, the message comes through! shazia iqbal, take a bow!
