Tiger shroff has immense potential to be a terrific action hero but his choices to work constantly with Ahmed Khan, who basically is another version of Prabhudeva , is ruining his career. Just because Ahmed Khan gave him one success in the name of Baaghi 2, does not mean he constantly continue giving him chances even after knowing audience don't find Ahmed Khan films as even barely watchable. This is exactly what Salman Khan did working with Prabhudeva constantly for 2 bad films.
Heropanti was never good. It was average but was successful cuz of a new hero interest, some really good songs and dance/ action moves. Due to this commercial success , they went on to make Heropanti 2 which imo is even worse.
The thing is, they had an interesting story in hand. A hacker named Laila planning to get hold of the money of every Indian and Tiger trying to get him by entering into his personal space and then getting caught eventually leading him to staying undercover and try catch him formed the base of an intriguing plot. It is the terrible execution of this story that leads to thr downfall. Never does it feel thrilling or something. Even the climax doesn't feel thrilling.
Adding cherry to this cake is the terribly written characters especially of Nawaz and Tara. Nawaz tries to be a "Kick" kind of villian and fails miserably. It is Tara however who is an absolute pain to watch. Her constant squealing in high pitch voice feels so irritating at one point that i felt skipping those parts .
Double meaning jokes, weird sequences further malign this project.
Action is definitely a little over the top but after watching the action and logic in south films like KGF, I decided well, i won't complain here too as it belongs to the same masala genre.
Songs? Well it's very hard to digest that AR rahman first chose to give his music for a film like this and then proceeds to give not a single good song. Whoever was the music composer for Heropanti 1 did a way better job than AR rahman.
Overall, I think others have elaborated well about whether to watch it or not . Seeing the poor collection at the BO, it should be a lesson for Tiger to stop working with Ahmed khan.
