Pyaar Ka Punchnama 2 – the former is sadly absent and the monologue is longer, unfunny and utterly forced. Director Luv Ranjan wants to call it a sequel. I would say it’s nothing better than a bad copy of the original.
Everything is the same – the fights, the patch ups and the curtain-raiser for another monologue delivered by the same actor – only this time with greater self-consciousness and staler punches. A couple of chuckles miserly sprinkled is all that there is on offer.
One must really hate good cinema, and women in general, to love this one! I’ll give Pyaar Ka Punchnama 2, 1 QUINT OUT OF 5.
