Son of Sardaar 2 review: Internet is loving the comedy in Ajay Devgn's movie, call it ‘paisa vasool family entertainer'

Mint6 days ago
Son of Sardaar 2 review: Son of Sardaar 2, starring Ajay Devgn and Mrunal Thakur, is winning the Internet with its brain-rotting comedy, and the social media users are convinced that it is the ultimate 'paisa vasool family entertainer' of the year.
The movie, which hit the theatres on Friday, August 1, left social media abuzz with the release of its song Pehla Tu Duja Tu, which got trolled, but talked about, because of its viral finger dance.
At the box office, Son of Sardaar 2 is facing major competition from Ahaan Panday and Aneet Padda's blockbuster movie Saiyaara, and the newly released Dhadak 2 starring Siddhant Chaturvedi and Triptii Dimri.
Son of Sardaar 2 has been praised for delivering what it promised – brain-rotting comedy, and social media users have urged the audience to just enjoy the 'masala ride' instead of expecting depth in it.
'It's a wonderful movie, lots of comedy, lots of laughing moment, it's a completely family entertainers,' said a user.
Another user said, 'It's a full Paisa vasool family entertainer, you will laugh and you will be entertained and that's what this film promised.'
A user said, 'Son of Sardaar 2 delivers what it promises — a loud, colorful, and crowd-pleasing entertainer. Perfect for a festive family watch!'
'Don't go in expecting depth, just sit back and enjoy the masala ride,' he added.
'It's a wonderful movie, lots of comedy, lots of laughing moment, it's a completely family entertainers. A must watch!' said another user.
One user said, 'Son Of Sardaar 2 is a feel-good comedy drama with a strong emotional core & a beautiful representation of how deeply rooted values can shine even in foreign lands.'
'Son Of Sardaar 2 has its old gags alive to make you tickle everytime. Ajay Devgn as Jassi is quite promising. Entire cast is satisfying. The only minor flaws lie in the screenplay but a fun BRAINROT,' added another.
However, there were users who found the movie to be the 'WORST FILM OF THE YEAR'.
'Son Of Sardaar 2 is something that's gonna give you a HEADACHE right from the first scene to the last !! Literally speaking, there is not a SINGLE SEQUENCE that makes you laugh,' a user said.
They added, 'The screenplay seems like it was written during a LUNCH BREAK, the DIALOGUES sound like REJECTED WhatsApp forwards, and the PRESENTATION? Even school assemblies have better production value.'
Ajay Devgn's acting was also questioned in the movie, with netizens saying that he is becoming what Akshay Kumar used to be – 'an actor with ZERO EFFORT, FULL-ON SLEEPWALK & POOR ACTING.'
Set in Punjab and Scotland, this Vijay Kumar Arora directorial is produced by Ajay Devgn and Jyoti Deshpande.
Other than Ajay Devgn and Mrunal Thakur, the star cast of the movie features Ravi Kishan, Sanjay Mishra, Neeru Bajwa, Chunky Panday, Kubbra Sait, Deepak Dobriyal, Vindu Dara Singh, Roshni Walia, Sharat Saxena, Sahil Mehta and the late Mukul Dev in key roles.

Anupam Kher breaks silence on Saiyaara dominating Tanvi The Great at box office: 'Agar paisa hi sab kuch hota...'

Comparisons and competition are unavoidable when two movies are released at roughly the same time. That's precisely what happened when Mohit Suri 's elegant romantic drama Saiyaara and Anupam Kher 's touching drama Tanvi The Great opened in theaters on the same day. Tanvi The Great failed to achieve the same level of commercial success as the latter, which dominated the box office with over Rs 500 crore and captured the hearts of the public with its music and youthful star cast. However, it isn't keeping Anupam Kher up at night. He believes that movies are about feelings rather than profits. When asked if he believes the Saiyaara craze is to blame for his film's poor performance, the veteran actor responded, "I don't believe that's true," in an interview with News18. 'A few years down the line, when someone will ask you what are your five favorite films are, you won't name the ones based on which of these movies made a business worth crores." The actor continued, "You'll name the ones which touched your hearts." 'Maybe Tanvi the Great didn't mint much money, but it is still priceless. I recently met a lady outside the theater who hugged me tightly and started crying, saying this was the best film she has ever watched," Kher added. Kher's remarks provided a much-needed break in a society that is fixated on numbers. 'You don't value everything based only on money. Agar paisa hi sab kuch hota, to phir log hamesha five-star hotel me hi khate na, dhaba koi kyu jata?" He revealed that he firmly supports his film in spite of the poor collections. 'My film is outstanding commercially," he stated. Tanvi The Great is subtly capturing hearts, while Saiyaara continues to rule the screen thanks to its box office power and Gen-Z appeal. Anupam Kher is the film's producer and director. He co-stars with Iain Glen. On July 18, 2025, Tanvi the Great was released in theaters.

'I have 25,000 followers': Peter Nguyen threatens American Airlines air hostess after she catches him vaping in toilet

Peter Nguyen threatened to call the police when he was caught vaping on an American Airlines plane. Peter Kobe Nguyen, an Internet personality and a self-described pickleball coach, created a scene that included some social media flexing on board an American Airlines plane after he was caught vaping inside the toilet of the aircraft. Nguyen, in the viral video, accused the air hostess of harassing him by opening the bathroom door on him, and then he went on to say that he has 25,000 followers and they will watch this. Nguyen recorded the video and posted on Instagram claiming that the airhostess put her hands on him but it backfired as his followers told him that he was at fault and was now trying to gain sympathy. 'I was actually sitting on the toilet and you were opening the door,' he said in the video. 'I don't care,' the crew member replied. 'You can keep saying you're sorry but I care about all these passengers.' View this post on Instagram A post shared by Kobe Peter 'Twoey King' Nguyen (@ "I have a lawyer, I am a lawyer," Nguyen said, forcing the airhostess to apologize. Then he threatened to call the police when he landed. In a follow-up post, Nguyen wrote that 'American Airlines customer service' had called to tell them they were conducting 'internal investigation' of the incident and that 'similar instances had happened in the past.' 'Justice is about to be served,' he wrote in the caption. American Airlines acknowledged the incident and said: "A customer on American Airlines flight 2860 with service from Phoenix (PHX) to San Francisco (SFO) was removed from the aircraft upon arrival at SFO due to disruptive behavior. We thank our customers for their patience and apologize for any inconvenience." "The San Francisco Police Department met the flight upon arrival and escorted the customer out of the concourse." "What a sorry attempt to portray yourself as a victim. Stop Vaping in the airplane, case closed," the top comment of the Instagram post read. 'I have a lawyer. I AM a lawyer' lmao. No dude you play pickleball," another mocked him. "You should go to federal prison for vaping on a plane and endangering all the passengers on the plane," a third user wrote.

Saiyaara Actor Varun Badola Takes Dig At Film's PR Team: 'They Went Overboard With IV Drips'

Saiyaara star Varun Badola reacts to viral theatre frenzy, saying PR team went overboard with IV drip stunts and bangles-breaking antics. Calls success real. Ahaan Panday's debut film Saiyaara may be breaking box office records, but not everyone is on board with how the film has been promoted. Veteran actor Varun Badola, who played Ahaan's father in the romantic drama, has taken a subtle yet scathing dig at the film's PR machinery. The Mohit Suri directorial, also starring Aneet Padda, has now crossed the Rs 500 crore mark globally, with over Rs 300 crore earned in India alone. While its box office run has been historic, Saiyaara also went viral for dramatic audience reactions — fans fainting, crying uncontrollably, tearing their shirts, and even showing up to theatres hooked to IV drips. While producer Akshaye Widhani and director Suri have maintained that the reactions were organic and not planted, Varun Badola offered a more grounded take in an interview with Screen. 'When we were working on the film, we hadn't thought it would get so big… But on the third day of the release, when the film blew up at the box office, we realized it had gone big. I still haven't watched Saiyaara," he revealed. Commenting on the viral videos, Badola didn't hold back: 'By the third or fourth day, the film was being talked about. I saw the euphoria on Instagram. Log jo chudiyaan tod rahe hai, chaatiyaan peet rahe hai (People were breaking bangles and beating their chests). I think the promotions team went a little overboard… putting IV drips. Those people must have been told to give content. Thank god, people didn't get their legs broken and go crawling to see the film." Despite his candid remarks, Badola acknowledged the film's real impact. 'It's okay. We understand promoting the film, but it's good only up to a certain level. However, the film cannot earn so much money just based on Instagram promotions. People have gone and seen the film, and they have loved it," he concluded. With Saiyaara continuing its golden run, Ahaan Panday has officially arrived in Bollywood. Disclaimer: Comments reflect users' views, not News18's.
