Ginny Weds Sunny 2 Review: Anupama Chopra | THR India

Anupama Chopra reviews Ginny Weds Sunny 2, Prasshant Jha's muddled romance starring Avinash Tiwary and Medha Shankr — and finds it rarely lands despite capable performers. Tiwary plays Sunny, a failed wrestler from Rishikesh who runs Pehlwan Craft House while lying about being an educated entrepreneur, and Shankr plays Ginny, a cool working girl from New Delhi who fakes being uneducated to win him over. Lillette Dubey — beloved as Jazz in Kal Ho Naa Ho over two decades ago — returns as the modern Bollywood mom, guiding her daughter through a broken engagement, sleepovers, and a marriage that unravels within days of a deeply strange wedding night. Chopra unpacks the film's whiplash-inducing blend of tired Bollywood clichés and half-formed ideas about the new Indian woman, a harebrained plot that even good actors can't salvage, relentless background music, and the puzzling decision to brand this as a spiritual sequel to the 2020 Vikrant Massey–Yami Gautam Dhar film when nothing meaningfully connects. A small spark comes from Sunny's friend Rudal, who lands the handful of genuinely good lines.
