The trailer has a slew of nostalgic references to Ajay's past films, including recreations to Phool Aur Kaante and Singham, and it ends funnily with Lata Mangeshkar's "Buddha Mil Gaya," which self-consciously suggests the film's humor.

Positive Points

The sparks between Ajay and Rakul still feel fresh and, in addition, Madhavan and Gautami provide another level of dimensionality and emotional weight to the backstory. The dialogue hits and lands appropriately, and the humor feels naturalistic rather than forced. Meta references and nods to Ajay’s filmography will appeal to fans of the original, even eliciting a sense of 90s nostalgia.

Negative Points

For viewers online, some questioned the need for a sequel, some deeming it unnecessary and others expressing it might not carry the charm of the first part. The trailer likewise shows slight hints of production value, with a few Reddit users noting the absence of a standout song or the extravaganza of De De Pyaar De's visual extravaganza.

Overall: De De Pyaar De 2 looks and sounds like a light-hearted, "fun" film that will lean on charm, and humor and an appreciation for the nostalgia of the past. If the film stays true to its comedy and random emotional work, it might even pleasantly surprise some skeptics on its release date 14 November 2025.
