Three months after the debut of Raid 2, the ever-charming Ajay Devgn is gracing us once again with his impending release: Son Of Sardaar 2. Swapping his action-hero cape for a comedic one, he’s teaming up with Mrunal Thakur to make waves at the box office starting August 1, 2025. But given that his last comedy venture was about as popular as a lukewarm cup of tea, the real question remains: Is it déjà vu or déjà boo? Let’s dive into the chaos.
A Maelstrom of Low Buzz
While the soundtrack hit all the right notes, the official trailer was reviewed like a mystery meat dish nobody asked for. As the release date approaches, excitement levels are about as high as a garden fence. With less than a week to go, all the talk seems centered around Saiyaara, not Sardaar. Perhaps the movie should consider a name change to “Son Of Silence”? It might box office better.
For the number crunchers out there, the BookMyShow interest ratings reveal Ajay’s flick has mustered a sprightly 105.6K likes, which is charming, but let’s not forget War 2 is strutting in with a whopping 205.8K interests. That’s almost enough to make you want to throw a party for one.
The Flop Chronicles
Cast your mind back to 2022 when Thank God was Ajay Devgn’s last comedic outing. In a plot twist that only fate could conjure, it flopped harder than a fish out of water, reeling in mere 30.75 crores over its lifetime. It vanished from screens faster than you can say “box office failure”—one week flopped just like a sad pancake.
Will the Cycle of Doom Continue?
With a production budget rumored to be a princely 100 crores, Son Of Sardaar 2 is the proverbial ship that could either sail smoothly straight to success or sink like the Titanic, thanks to low buzz and fierce competition. Content matters, and if this film does not deliver the laughter, it could blend into the parade of mediocrity already underway.
This marks Ajay’s return to comedic territory after precisely 1011 days, and let’s hope the wait does not leave fans chuckling ironically. The real metric to watch will be the advance bookings. If they’re poor, consider adjusting your “save the date” plans.
The Cast: A Star-Studded Survival Effort
Directed by the enigmatic Vijay Kumar Arora, the ensemble includes a plethora of talent such as Ravi Kishan, Deepak Dobriyal, Chunky Panday, and others who may or may not have seen the script yet. It also holds the honor of being the posthumous project of Mukul Dev, for those keeping score at home.
The production companies, Jio Studios and Ajay Devgn Films, are like the parents looking on, hoping their movie doesn’t grow up to be a flop. So buckle up or maybe just stay home—either way, it’s shaping up to be an interesting ride.
