It's great to see such positive reviews from public figures. However, I do hope the success of such long films doesn't set a trend where every movie feels the need to be 3-4 hours. Sometimes a tight 2-hour story is more impactful.

Saw it on Sunday! The theatre experience was electric. Ranveer Singh was absolutely phenomenal, just like Virat bhai said. The background score by Shashwat Sachdev gives you goosebumps. Aari Aari is stuck in my head! 🎬

As a huge fan of the first part, I was a bit skeptical about the sequel. But it lived up to the hype! Madhavan and Sanjay Dutt's cameos were just the icing on the cake. A perfect masala entertainer with a solid story. 👏
