The sequel to the 2019 hit didn't just recycle the "older man, younger woman" trope; it weaponized it. While the first film was about Ashish (Ajay Devgn) seeking validation from his ex-wife, De De Pyaar De 2  pivots to a high-stakes psychological war between Ayesha (Rakul Preet Singh) and her father, Rakesh. The ending isn't just a romantic resolution—it’s a brutal takedown of "performative progressiveness" in Indian families. What Actually Happened? In a calculated move to b

Let’s be real for a second, Gandhi Jayanti has officially been rebranded. We all knew it was coming, but seeing Ajay Devgn drop the poster for Drishyam 3  has sent the timeline into a full-blown meltdown. The franchise that single-handedly taught an entire generation how to gaslight the police (allegedly) is returning for the Final Instalment . We have to wait until October 2, 2026 , which feels like a personal attack on my patience, but considering the stakes? We are seated.

The brand-new single ‘3 Shaukk’  from De De Pyaar De 2  dropped this week, featuring the dynamic father-son duo Jaaved Jaaferi  and Meezaan Jaffrey , and while the energy is infectious, the choreography sparks an interesting debate about balance, pace, and generational performance. Meezaan Jaffrey — A Star Waiting for the Right Project Ever since his 2019 debut in Malaal  opposite Sharmin Segal, many felt Meezaan Jaffrey had all the makings of a commercial Hindi cinema star.

Brace yourselves — because Ajay Devgan and Yo Yo Honey Singh are back, and the internet can’t decide whether to laugh, cry, or dance awkwardly in solidarity. The first single from De De Pyaar De 2  — aptly titled “The Uncle Song” ( Jhoom Sharaabi) is here, and it’s pure retro chaos . It’s a track that sounds straight out of 2012’s party playlist — the kind you’d hear blaring from a wedding DJ booth while uncles in shiny shirts sip whisky and shout “One more time!” So the ques
