The highly anticipated sequel to “De De Pyaar De” starring Ajay Devgn and Rakul Preet Singh is all set to hit theaters on May 1, 2025, promising to be a crowd-pleaser timed perfectly between Maharashtra Day and International Workers’ Day. Directed this time by Anshul Sharma, filming is slated to commence in June 2024. Excitingly, Anil Kapoor has been brought on board for the project, marking a reunion with Devgn after their collaboration in the 2019 release “Total Dhamaal.”
Sources close to the production reveal that Luv Ranjan has secured another big name for the cast, with Anil Kapoor poised to play a significant role in “De De Pyaar De 2.” Speculations abound that Kapoor might portray Ayesha, aka Rakul Preet Singh’s father, injecting fresh dynamics into the family drama and comedic elements. A source disclosed, “Anil was captivated by the concept of De De Pyaar De 2, and it was an immediate yes from him. The humor in De De Pyaar De 2 is purportedly a notch above the prequel, with an intriguing dynamic between Ajay Devgn and Anil Kapoor.”
Further insights from the source suggest, “The clash between Kapoor’s character and Ajay Devgn is the highlight of De De Pyaar De 2. The chemistry between the two actors is electrifying, as they explore uncharted territory on screen. The sequel revolves around Ajay and Rakul’s comical endeavors to win over Rakul’s family.”
The original film delved into the unconventional romance between Ashish, a man in his 50s, and Ayesha, a woman in her 20s, with Tabu portraying Ashish’s ex-wife. While rumors swirl about Tabu’s potential return for the sequel, the makers remain tight-lipped on the matter.
Bhushan Kumar and Krishan Kumar from T-Series, along with Luv Ranjan and Ankur Garg from Luv Films, are spearheading the production, ensuring that “De De Pyaar De 2” maintains the same level of entertainment and charm that captivated audiences in its predecessor.
With the addition of Anil Kapoor to the ensemble cast, coupled with the proven track record of the filmmakers, expectations are running high for another memorable cinematic experience that seamlessly blends humor, romance, and family dynamics.
