Why does every romantic comedy released in the Hindi film industry have a message? Why can it not be just a silly, fun romance movie with pure old-school or new-age romance and just a small, harmless conflict that would not have a hard implication on the ending of the film?

Though the messaging could help with dialogue in the community about acceptance, sometimes Hindi movies go overboard and lose their essence very quickly.

The modestly budgeted “Dream Girl 2,” produced by Ektaa R. Kapoor and Shobha Kapoor for Balaji Motion Pictures, opened on Aug. 25 and has grossed some $10 million so far.

Comedy drama ‘Dream Girl 2’ is a namesake sequel to the 2019 film ‘Dream Girl’, both directed by Raaj Shaandilyaa. Most of the cast remains the same except the leading lady is Ananya Panday instead of Nushrratt Bharuccha. Dream Girl 2 does not continue in terms of the story, it simply picks up the traits of Ayushmann Khurrana’s character Karamveer ‘Karam’ Singh aka Pooja.
Karam (Ayushmann Khurrana), a small-town boy from Mathura, plays female characters in plays (drama) as he has an uncanny ability of delivering sensuous female voice and look like one too. Like earlier he is still looking for a decent job, struggling every day to pay his father’s debt, who has borrowed money from almost everyone around.
While on one hand he is jobless, on the other hand, he is deeply in love with Pari (Ananya Panday), whose father (Manoj Joshi), though reluctant, agrees to their relationship but with a caveat.
