What followers liked
Dream Girl 2 is directed by Raaj Shaandilyaa and revolves round a younger man named Karam (Ayushmann), who finds himself in a disaster after which decides to marry the son of a rich businessman. A fan wrote, “Just watched #DreamGirl2 & i must say its a fun watching film. Very Entertaining. Truly refreshing. Finally #AyushmannKhurrana is back in a role we all wanted. He know where the sarcasm works perfectly. All supporting casts were too good. “
Another wrote, “Such a great family entertainer #DreamGirl2.@ayushmannk is back with his most loved character ‘Pooja’ . Full on fun and totally worth watching.” A fan praised the movie and stated, “Absolute Laugh Riottt From Start Till The End !! A Must Watch for All with your whole family ..@ayushmannk Is Back With A Bangg (fire emoticons). BLOCKBUSTER FOR SURE !!” Another consumer stated, “Just watched Dream girl 2, pre interval was boring and post interval which is very good.”
What did not work
Meanwhile there have been many who weren’t impressed. One consumer wrote, “I don’t think that #DreamGirl2 is going to make any impact. Same old jokes, same old script, same old gyaan.” Another consumer stated, “Ayushman Khurana is the cringiest he can ever be in #DreamGirl2. Even the core fanbase of Ayushman Khurana will not be able to digest this. Worst Ever!”
Another was crucial of Ananya Panday’s efficiency and wrote, “#DreamGirl2 would have became a dream project for #AnanyaPanday. . I wonder how she became the choice when u have bunch of talented actors. Disgusting performance.” Another assessment added, “Ayushmann Khurrana’s film Dream Girl 2 is funny in parts but not up to the mark. Movie has elements where people will laugh but did not match the expectations.”
Meanwhile, an excerpt from the Hindustan Times assessment of the movie stated, “At a little more than two hours, there is never a dull moment in Dream Girl 2. Though that doesn’t mean it is a joyride from start to end. The pace oscillates from really fast to really slow sometimes, and writing gets weak at places when Pooja is not being Pooja. However, never to an extent that it lulls you to sleep. Shaandilyaa has co-written the story with Naresh Kathooria, staying in slapstick territory at all times.”
