Kapil Sharma returns to the big screen with Kis Kisko Pyaar Karoon 2, a comedy of errors that stays true to its goofy origins. Directed by Anukalp Goswami and releasing in theatres on 12 December, the film features an ensemble cast including Manjot Singh, Vipin Sharma, Akhilendra Mishra, Sushant Singh, and the late Asrani. While the film promises—and delivers—a steady flow of laughs, it never aspires to be more than breezy, disposable entertainment.
A Film Comfortable in Its Own Zone
The sequel knows exactly what it wants to be: a light-hearted entertainer powered by outrageous situations and punchline-driven humour. It neither surprises nor experiments, but it embraces its chaotic tone wholeheartedly.
Kapil Sharma’s signature comedic style defines the film’s rhythm. The humour leans into loud, sometimes absurd setups, and while not every gag lands, enough do to keep the film enjoyable. With its simple intentions and uncomplicated storytelling, the film never pretends to be anything beyond a fun, easy watch.
Three Wives, One Man, Endless Lies
Set in Bhopal, the story revolves around Mohan (Kapil Sharma), who dreams of marrying the woman he loves—Sanya (Hira Warina). But a series of unexpected events push him into marrying three different women:
- Ruhi (Ayesha Khan)
- Meena (Tridha Choudhury)
- Jenny (Parul Gulati)
Each marriage ties him to a different identity based on the wife’s religion, forcing him into a never-ending routine of deception. His only ally is his loyal friend Hubby (Manjot Singh), who works tirelessly to keep Mohan’s multiple lives from colliding.
The house of lies begins to crumble when Jenny’s brother—a police officer—is asked to track down a man known by three different names. The situation spirals further when someone at a blood donation camp spots Mohan posing as three individuals within minutes. Every desperate solution he finds only leads to an even bigger problem.
A Restless Screenplay That Thrives on Chaos
Kis Kisko Pyaar Karoon 2 maintains a brisk pace, packing in joke after joke to ensure no moment feels stagnant. The humour is broad and often familiar, but the film benefits from its rapid-fire storytelling—confusion escalates, stakes rise, and the madness keeps rolling.
Manjot Singh shines as Mohan’s best friend, while Vipin Sharma and Akhilendra Mishra inject energy into the narrative with standout performances. Smita Jaikar joins the ride mid-film, adding to the ensemble’s comic momentum. Although the sequel doesn’t offer any novelty compared to the first film, the consistently busy screenplay keeps the entertainment value intact.
Performances That Power the Madness
- Kapil Sharma showcases his effortless comic timing, portraying a man constantly juggling crises. While he delivers laughs with ease, his performance lacks the emotional depth he has demonstrated in films like Zwigato and Crew.
- Manjot Singh is a highlight, matching Kapil beat-for-beat and elevating many scenes with impeccable timing.
- Parul Gulati, Ayesha Khan, and Tridha Choudhury perform well within their given space, each contributing to Mohan’s ever-growing complications.
- Vipin Sharma as Ruhi’s father is exceptional—his relentless pursuit of “Mahmood” is comedy gold.
- Akhilendra Mishra, playing Mohan’s father, steals the climax with his hysterical presence.
- The late Asrani appears briefly but leaves a charming impression, reminding viewers of his evergreen comic touch.
Jay-Ho Catch-Up
Kis Kisko Pyaar Karoon 2 accomplishes what it sets out to do—bring laughs through chaos. It’s energetic, silly, and sometimes genuinely funny, especially when the supporting cast steps in. But it’s far from a must-watch. The film plays it safe, leans on familiar beats, and refuses to evolve beyond its own formula.
If you’re in the mood for uncomplicated comedy and don’t mind a lack of freshness, this sequel will keep you entertained for its runtime—and promptly slip from memory once the lights come on.
