Yamla Pagla Deewana 2 (also known by the abbreviated form YPD2) is a 2013 Bollywood action comedy film directed by Sangeeth Sivan, and the sequel to the 2011 hit film, Yamla Pagla Deewana.[1] The film features Dharmendra, Sunny Deol and Bobby Deol from the previous film along with Neha Sharma and Kristina Akheeva (debuting in this film) as the female leads.
The theatrical trailer was released on 27 March 2013 on YouTube, and the music rights were then bought by Yash Raj Films. The film was released on 7 June 2013, and received mixed to negative response from critics. The film had a fair opening at the box office, collecting a little less than the previous film on its first day run.[2]
Plot
In Varanasi, Dharam Dhillon (Dharmendra) is conning people along with his son Gajodhar (Bobby Deol) by pretending to be Gurus. When Sir Yograj Khanna (Annu Kapoor) from England comes to meet Dharam thinking he is a Guru, Dharam's eyes twinkle and settle on his diamond rings. Dharam & Gajodhar pretend to be the owners Oberoi of Oberoi & Oberoi Company, in order to fool Yograj. Yograj gets impressed, and mentions his daughter. Dharam tells Gajodhar to go make his daughter Suman Khanna (Neha Sharma) fall in love with him, which he does and soon marriage is fixed in England. However, Dharam's elder son Paramveer (Sunny Deol), a loan recovery agent for a bank, by chance meets Yograj Khanna.
Paramveer lands up at Khanna's club just as Joginder Armstrong (Anupam Kher) arrived to take over the club. Joginder is mostly called “Dude” and has the hair and gall to reference one of cinema's most curious and cherished characters (Jeff "The Dude" from The Big Lebowski). Joginder brings his two main flunkies (played by Johnny Lever and Sucheta Khanna) along with a group of goons, who are then all bashed up by Paramveer. Yograj hugs him and makes him his manager. Then, Paramveer encounters Dharam and Gajodhar trying to become part of Yograj's wealth. Paramveer has the power to stop his father and brother, but will he? Or will he yet again become a part of their con?

However, the director of the original, Samir Karnik opted out of the sequel, therefore Sangeeth Sivan was hired to write and direct the sequel.

Bollywood Life rated the movie 3 out of 5 stars and said, "Dharmendra charms, Sunny Deol roars, Bobby Deol entertains! As predicted by the movie's makers, trade pundits and us, the dumdaar Deol family has certainly doubled up the magic this time. We are impressed!"[11]

Filmfare rated the movie 4/5 stars, opining that "YPD2 gets two things right. The first is Sunny Deol's performance. He's a Super Sardar in the movie. He's continuing where he left off in Border, Gadar and YPD. He can beat up an army all alone. Only this time he has a supersonic roar, he massacres a whole legion of Ninjas, battles gigantic Sumo wrestlers and lifts a goddamn truck with one hand. The self-depreciating humour and parody with Sunny is hilarious. The other good thing is the use of a painting as a humour motif. Everyone seems to break into tears of disbelief and awe on seeing this painting. Funny thing is, it's painted by the man in the monkey suit, while he's piss drunk and has used his bum as a paint brush."[18]
