Sadak 2 bore the brunt of the widespread criticism and ill-informed anger directed towards star kids post Sushant Singh Rajput's death. The trailer was one of the most disliked ones on Youtube while it got one of the lowest rankings on IMDb as well. It didn't help that the movie was terrible.

The movie has managed an abysmal score of 2.3 ratings because of its plot. Laxmii: 13 Questions That Left Us Stumped After Watching Akshay Kumar-Kiara Advani’s Kanchana Remake (SPOILERS)
