Bollywood’s comedy king Kapil Sharma is back on the big screen with Kis Kisko Pyaar Karoon 2, a sequel to his 2015 hit. Known for his quick wit and magnetic stage presence, Sharma dives into another rom-com set in India’s heartland. While the film aims for laugh-out-loud moments through its chaotic premise of one man juggling multiple marriages, the humor does not consistently land. Still, for die-hard fans of the comedian, this is a nostalgia-filled ride.
Story
The plot revolves around Mohan Sharma (Kapil Sharma), a restaurant owner in Bhopal who lives with his parents Mamta (Supriya Shukla) and BK (Akhilendra Mishra). Mohan is deeply in love with Sania (Hira Warina) and is ready to settle down, but familial and religious differences threaten the relationship. In a surprising turn, Mohan converts to Islam and becomes Mehmood to win Sania’s father’s approval.
Just as things seem to be falling into place, Mohan finds himself married—first to Ruhi (Ayesha Khan), then to Meera (Tridha Choudhary), and later to Jenny (Parul Gulati) while posing as “Michael” in Goa. To make matters worse, Sania disappears without explanation. As Mohan tries to manage his three marriages and multiple identities, Inspector David D’Costa (Sushant Singh) steps in, leading to a series of misunderstandings, gags, and confrontations that form the rest of the narrative.
Performances
Kapil Sharma anchors the film with his signature comedic timing, bringing charm to an otherwise over-the-top storyline. While his presence is engaging, the script doesn’t provide enough fresh punch lines to keep the audience hooked.
Among the supporting cast, Manjot Singh (Hubby) adds energy to the chaos. Tridha Choudhary shines in her role with maximum screen time and a song to her credit, leaving a notable impression. Hira Warina, Parul Gulati, and Ayesha Khan contribute, but their characters feel underdeveloped. Sushant Singh as Inspector D’Costa fits the role perfectly, while veteran actors Vipin Sharma and Akhilendra Mishra make their short screen space count. Cameos from Jamie Lever and Jimmy Moses add some genuine comic relief, and the late Asrani as Father Anthony is delightful. Kapil Sharma’s real-life wife, Ginni, makes a charming special appearance.
Behind the Scenes
The technical side of the film is a mixed bag. Ravi Yadav’s cinematography captures the rural backdrop well but doesn’t elevate the film visually. The production design by Ashok Lokare and Rucha Mayekar leans toward being overly loud, while the costumes by Ginni Kapil Sharma and Naahid Shah feel authentic to the setting.
Unfortunately, the music is one of the weakest links. Except for “Phurrr,” the soundtrack fails to make an impression and occasionally disrupts the narrative flow. The background score works in sync with the film’s tone, but editing by Hussain A Burmawala could have been tighter—especially by trimming unnecessary song sequences.
Writer-director Anukalp Goswami crafts a story packed with potential for comedic confusion, and to his credit, the complex triple-marriage setup is handled without making the plot incoherent. However, certain logical gaps—like characters being inexplicably unconcerned with missing loved ones—leave the audience puzzled.
Final Verdict
Kis Kisko Pyaar Karoon 2 is unapologetically a “leave-your-brain-at-home” kind of comedy. While Kapil Sharma’s fans will enjoy his return to cinema and his ability to carry scenes with ease, the film suffers from repetitive gags, weak songs, and inconsistent humor.
For loyal followers of Kapil, it’s worth watching once for the fan service. For others, revisiting his TV show might offer more laughs.
