When it comes to Bollywood sequels, the casting is as big a mystery as the story itself.
With Son of Sardaar 2 releasing in July 2025, the spotlight is now on its interesting cast—especially with Punjabi superstar Neeru Bajwa making her big Bollywood debut in a key role.

Sequels like this, especially those following a successful formula (the first film was a remake of S.S. Rajamouli’s Maryada Ramanna) have to balance nostalgia with fresh energy.
The news that Neeru Bajwa will play Ajay Devgn’s wife in the film is a big move.

Neeru’s massive popularity in Punjabi cinema can bring in a new audience to the franchise and her role is said to be substantial.
But this announcement also raises questions about Mrunal Thakur’s character.

Mrunal is a big star in South Indian cinema with a huge fan following but hasn’t yet found a hit in Hindi films.
She is surely hoping Son of Sardaar 2 will be her big break in Bollywood. But if Neeru is playing Ajay’s wife then what about Mrunal’s character? Is she a romantic interest, a rival or something else entirely?
This ambiguity can work in the film’s favor and add to the intrigue or sideline a talented actress.
With director Vijay Kumar Arora and a strong supporting cast, the film has potential but how these casting choices play out will be key to its success.
