Ajay Devgn’s return as the iconic sardaar in Son of Sardaar 2 has not gone the way fans expected. While the 2012 original was loved for its quirky comedy and action, the first look of the sequel has triggered a wave of trolling online.
The newly released poster features a turbaned Ajay Devgn in his trademark pose, standing atop two military tanks with the tagline, “The Return of the Sardaar.” Instead of excitement, fans are calling out the poster for looking AI-generated and overly dependent on green screen visuals.
Critics argue the design reflects a “senseless comedy” tone and lacks originality. Many have voiced concerns that Ajay is repeating the same character tropes, making his roles predictable.
This reaction mirrors the recent disappointment surrounding sequels like Raid 2, Housefull 5, and Metro In Dino. Fans accuse filmmakers of cashing in on nostalgia without delivering the same emotional or cinematic impact.
With Son of Sardaar 2 slated for release on July 25, 2025, the pressure is mounting. Many fear the sequel could become another forgettable follow-up that tarnishes the legacy of the original.
Ajay Devgn has been active both on and off screen. Recently, he made headlines for supporting Deepika Padukone after her viral statement about the need for working 8-hour shifts. His respectful stance was praised across the industry.
Still, that goodwill has not softened the online reaction to Son of Sardaar 2. While some fans are asking for patience and reminding others it is just a teaser, but the memes and debates continue to flood social media.
