Acting by Akshay Kumar and Bhumi Pednekar
It was expected that, in the second part, all these thinking will get a big blow and the thinking of the characters will change drastically. To an extent it does, but not effectively. The film has a heavy dose of comedy and action, which seems too much at some places. In terms of acting, Akshay Kumar looks similar to his last films. Bhumi Pednekar impresses in some scenes, while Sadia Khatim on the other hand looks beautiful and intelligent. The song sounds loud too. However, this family film is a once-in-a-lifetime look at the festival, showing the brother-sister relationship and raising a voice against practices like dowry.

Why watch the movie?
The film gives a good social message by questioning the evil practice like dowry.
