The first is Sunny Deol's performance. He's a Super Sardar in the movie. He's continuing where he left off in Border, Gadar and YPD. He can beat up an army all alone. Only this time he has a supersonic roar, he massacres a whole legion of Ninjas, battles gigantic Sumo wrestlers and lifts a goddamn truck with one hand. The self-deprecating humour and parody with Sunny is hilarious. The other good thing is the use of a painting as a humour motif. Everyone seems to break into tears of disbelief and awe on seeing this painting. Funny thing is, it's painted by the man in the monkey suit, while he's piss drunk and has used his bum as a paint brush."<ref>{{cite web|title=Movie Review: Yamla Pagla Deewana 2 |url=http://www.filmfare.com/reviews/movie-review-yamla-pagla-deewana-2_-3373.html|publisher=[[Filmfare]]|access-date=7 June 2013}}</ref>
