Smart marketing move. Re-releasing the first part just before the sequel builds so much hype. My husband and I are already planning to go. Hope they show the trailer for 'The Revenge' before the film!

Respectfully, while I loved the first film, this feels a bit like a cash grab. The sequel is coming in a week, why not just let people watch it on streaming if they need a refresher? Using PLF screens for this could have been saved for new content.

Living in Toronto, I'm so excited for the advance shows on the 18th! It's rare to see a Bollywood film get this kind of premium treatment overseas. The Dolby Atmos sound for those action scenes will be insane. Booked my tickets already!

Aditya Dhar is a genius. What a way to build momentum! The fact that it's getting 185 screens in North America alone shows the global power of Indian cinema now. Our stories are reaching the world. Feeling proud.

The cast is just stellar. Ranveer, Madhavan, Sanjay Dutt... each one brought their A-game. Excited to see Ranveer in a dual role in the sequel. Hamza's look in the trailer gave me chills! 🔥
