Dhadak 2 is a must-watch! Siddhant Chaturvedi and Triptii Dimri deliver outstanding performances, bringing depth and emotion to their characters. Their chemistry is undeniable, making their romance heart-wrenching and relatable. The film tackles tough social issues with sensitivity and sincerity. Powerful storytelling, soulful music, and heart-wrenching romance make it a compelling watch. Worth watching for its bravery in storytelling and honesty in performances.
This is not a romantic movie. This movie based on casteism. The Siddhant Chaturvedi role has been played very well and the Tripti dimri role can be considered 50-50. Saurav Sachdeva's role is not very big but still he has acted well.. Other actors have acted well. The story is not new, but it has been filmed very well.
Best of luck.

Bold in intent, raw in moments, but ultimately stops short of leaving a lasting impact. Over five years after the romantic tragedy Dhadak tried to adapt Sairat for mainstream Hindi audiences, Dhadak 2 returns, not as a sequel in story, but in spirit. Director Shazia Iqbal takes on the ambitious task of remaking the Tamil film Pariyerum Perumal, and while the heart of the film beats strong, it doesn't thump loud enough to match the power of the original. Compared to Pariyerum Perumal, Dhadak 2 feels more cautious, holding back where it could've gone full throttle.
Dhadak 2 is raw, unapologetic, and grounded in harsh realities. The screenplay is simple and hard-hitting in places, but overall lacks the unrelenting intensity of the original. The interval block delivers a shocking turn that elevates the emotional stakes, setting up a second half that's gripping and painful in equal measure. The music stays in the background and matches the serious mood of the film, adding emotion without taking the spotlight. Bas Ek Dhadak, Preet Re, and Duniya Alag are lyrically poignant, even if the compositions don't stand out musically.
Siddhant Chaturvedi delivers a career-best performance, a layered portrayal of a young man torn between love and systemic hatred. His eyes carry the trauma of every injustice, his silences often louder than words. Triptii Dimri breaks past the glam tag and proves her mettle. As Vidhi, she is vulnerable, sincere, and nuanced. Their chemistry feels unfiltered and heartbreakingly real especially in the film's final act, where Vidhi's confrontation with her family and her guttural scream is perhaps the film's most haunting moment. Zakir Hussain, Saurabh Sachdeva, Saad Bilgrami, Harish Khanna, Vipin Sharma, and the rest of the supporting cast bring a natural, believable feel to the film, making the world on screen feel real and lived-in.
Dhadak 2 is a bold attempt to shift the spotlight back onto caste. It works thanks to its powerful performances, gut-punch moments, and honest intent, but it misses the mark in building a sustained narrative.

Dhadak 2 is a gentle storm: quietly powerful, emotionally rich, and deeply rooted in the reality of caste and class indifferences. What may seem like a simple love story on the surface, unravels into a layered tale that strikes the heart with honesty and restraint.
The strength of the film lies in its raw emotions, rooted storytelling, and compelling performances by the entire cast. Each character feels real, every tear feels earned. It doesn't rely on grandeur; instead, it builds its world with subtlety and sincerity.
The music, too, walks hand-in-hand with the narrative; few, beautiful, and meaningful songs that rise and fall with the emotions of the story. There are no distractions, no unnecessary drama; just heartfelt cinema.
It's a film that you can sit and watch with your family, reflect upon, and carry with you. Dhadak 2 isn't just a sequel; it's a soulful reminder that love, when rooted in truth, can still break barriers.
A must-watch for those who believe in the quiet strength of storytelling.

Amazing gut wrenching and true mirror of the indian society. People that are not enjoying this film are themselves casteist. The filmmakers have captured the essence of the so called caste systen put in place by the british that some people wear it as a honour badge proudly and discrimination against the "lower" castes. Highly recommend this movie. In the same era as Abrahim and Khushi, please support Tripti and Siddhant.
