The trailer for De De Pyaar De 2, directed by Anshul Sharma and the follow up to Akiv Ali's 2019 film De De Pyaar De was unveiled on Tuesday.

The follow-up, which evokes nostalgia on Reddit, seems to continue where the first movie left off and stars Ajay Devgn, Rakul Preet Singh, Gautami Kapoor, R Madhavan, and Meezaan Jafri.

Rakul's character Ayesha informs her parents, Madhavan and Gautami, in the opening scene of the De De Pyaar De 2 trailer that her boyfriend is divorced and 'little' older than her.

At first her parents appear to be understanding but when they consider having a son-in-law who is their own age, Ajay's Ashish they become irritated.

She explains to Ajay that she hasn't told her parents his true age. In an effort to prevent her from marrying Ajay, her parents also bring in a younger prospect, Meezaan. References to Ajay's well-known scenes from Singham and Phool Aur Kaante are also included in the trailer.

Ajay assures himself and his friend Jaaved Jaaferi that she won't fall for anyone else so quickly and the well-known song Buddha Mil Gaya by Lata Mangeshkar concludes the story.

Internet users' reactions to the trailer ranged from feeling nostalgic for the first installment and wondering why a sequel was being made to thinking De De Pyaar De 2 looked funny.

“What was the need of a sequel?” wondered one Redditor, while another wrote, “Another sequel which will be a disaster.”

One person thought, “It looks fine. Although I think they will under deliver.”

Another Redditor wrote, “Production value of part 1 looked better though. And am surprised they haven’t plugged any song in the trailer.” Others agreed, seeming to get nostalgic for the first part.
