Reception
Rahul Desai of The Hollywood Reporter India observed that "The ‘90s called, they want their jokes back".[8] Shubhra Gupta of The Indian Express gave 1 star out of 5 and said that "Simplistic, confused writing and instantly forgettable songs-and-dances leave the actors struggling."[9]
Sana Farzeen of India Today rated it 2/5 stars and writes that "Ginny Weds Sunny 2 attempts to explore arranged marriage and societal expectations but falters with a scattered narrative and clichéd storytelling."[10] Devesh Sharma of Filmfare gave 2 stars out of 5 and said that "Perhaps the bigger question is whether Bollywood can move beyond this well-worn arranged marriage template. Because if this film is anything to go by, the genre isn’t just tired, it’s in desperate need of reinvention."[11]
Rishabh Suri of Hindustan Times gave 2.5 stars out of 5 and writes that "It feels less like a story that evolves and more like one that circles back to where it began."[12] Sreeju Sudhakaran writing for Rediff.com gave 1 star our of 5 and said that "Ginny Wedss Sunny 2 is a humourless romcom weighed down by lazy writing and forced emotional conflicts."[13]
Dhaval Roy of The Times of India rated it 2/5 stars and observed that "Ginny Weds Sunny 2 has a promising setup and a few sincere moments, but its uneven writing and underwhelming romance keep it from becoming an engaging watch."[14] Yatamanyu Narain writing for News 18 gave 2.5 stars out of 5 and said that "Avinash Tiwary, Medha Shankr starrer falls flat with weak writing and lack of depth"[15]
