The movie revolves around three cousins who navigate their adventures, dreams and self-discovery in Mumbai. Check out review roundup of Yaariyan 2 below. Yaariyan 2 Trailer Out! Divya Khosla Kumar, Meezaan Jafri, Pearl V Puri's Film to Hit Theaters on October 20 (Watch Video).

Free Press Journal: "Except her voice, Divya improves a lot as a performer. She isn’t unbearable at all but still has a lot of scope. The boys— Meezan, Pearl and Yash are the heartbeat of the film. Meezan has potential. Debutant Pearl does complete justice. His innocence speaks volumes. Yash is raw, sincere and genuine. Warina Hussain and Priya Warrier unfortunately have very brief appearances."

Zoom TV: "Yaariyan 2 stands out as a special film that not only pays homage to its source material but also enriches it. The charismatic cast, meticulous attention to detail, and exceptional music make it a compelling cinematic experience. For those who seek a blend of heartwarming relationships and a captivating narrative, Yaariyan 2 is a must-watch. This film doesn't merely adapt; it elevates the original, making it an even more delightful experience."

Times Now: "Yaariyan 2 is a special film with some of the most ear-friendly songs I’ve heard in a long long time, especially Arjit Singh’s Oonchi Oonchi Deewarein and Sachet Tandon’s Simroon Tera Naam which has been shot with an exquisite play of light and shade."

Watch Yaariyan 2 Trailer:

Firstpost: "In the days when we are celebrating the return of Hindi cinema with blistering successes like Jawan, Pathaan, and Gadar 2, and surprises like Zara Hatke Zara Bachke and The Kerala Story, a film like Yaariyan 2 is likely to create that room of lull all over again. It is not as unwatchable as it is unnecessary and barely does anything for the leads. Unless you count the 25 million views on its trailer on YouTube the hallmark of success."

Tellychakkar: "The performance of the actress Divya Khosla Kumar is falling flat at few places which is a big pull down for the movie. Also there are many songs that look a little forceful in the movie which definitely pull your interest down. Actresses like Warina Hussain, Priya Prakash Varrier were wasted in the movie and they had very less to offer. Actor Pearl V Puri has given one of the best performances among the actors present in the movie but unfortunately he was missing in the major portion of the second half."
