Since the first look drop of Son of Sardaar 2, about a month ago, the audience has been highly anticipating the release of the film’s trailer, and now it’s finally here.
While longtime fans of the franchise are excited to see the revival of their favorite character, most of the internet is heavily disappointed with the film’s trailer.
Social media is abuzz with skepticism about the state of Bollywood sequels and the creative choices that drive the makers to destroy a script that has heavy potential.
Many fans expressed their strong disappointment with the trailer, highlighting how some parts of it seemed completely unnecessary and cringe.
The trailer opens with Ajay alongside an older white woman he calls ‘bebe,’ a Punjabi term for mother, only to cut abruptly to a baffling scene of her pole dancing in front of him, without any clear context.
This upset a lot of viewers who claimed that the inclusion of such scenes in the name of comedy seems completely unwarranted.
Apart from this, many viewers also complained that the makers have already revealed 70% of the film’s plot in the trailer itself, leaving no room for excitement or anticipation.
Some users also raised concerns that the first-look poster and trailer appeared suspiciously AI-generated, sparking doubts about the film’s creative authenticity.
All these speculations and backlash have sparked a heated debate on social media about why Bollywood is so hell-bent on ruining good films by making sequels that have no substance and are just being utilized as easy cash grabs.
The disappointment with Son Of Sardaar 2 echoes recent reactions to other Bollywood sequels like Housefull 5, Raid 2, and the Singham franchise.
These franchises now feel forced and formulaic, leaving the audience yearning for some original and genuine entertainment.
Fans online have voiced that it’s better to skip making sequels altogether than to churn out cringe-worthy follow-ups with no real purpose or lasting impact.
While some still hope the film will defy expectations, the internet consensus is clear: Bollywood needs to rethink its approach to sequels and storytelling.
First #Housefull5 and now #SonOfSardaar2
If we are making forced sequels like these with cringe stuff, then better not make it.

Not sure if the makers are serious about the #SonOfSardaar sequel yet.
The first poster felt AI-generated. And now, with the trailer out.. the opening 'bebe' (mother) angle felt awkward and borderline racially off.My constant issue with Bollywood: why reveal 70% of the story in… pic.twitter.com/5Qk4T9WmJ4
