In his review, NDTV film critic, Saibal Chatterjee gave Dream Girl 2 1.5 stars out of 5 and said, “To the credit of Ayushmann Khurrana, he never gives the impression that he is on a sinking ship. He does not hold back one bit even when the writing lets him down. Manjot Singh, when the script permits, soldiers on gamely and lends the lead actor some support.”
Dream Girl 2 is the sequel to the 2019 film Dream Girl, which was also declared a hit at the box office. The first instalment featured Nushrratt Bharuccha in a pivotal role.
