A fan appreciated Varun Dhawan's phenoemenal acting, writing, "Varun Dhawan is born again in Border 2."
She continued, "As Major Hoshiyar Singh Dahiya, he become him. Restrained, simmering, a brooding edginess and then he explodes in the last one hour. Possibly among his best performances. A nuanced one which from the beginning is different from the others as his back story builds up."
"@varundhawan is among the finest actors we have today & Border 2 reminds us of that brilliance again. Give him a great role & director & he will be unforgettable. Pure aag," she added.
While another fan expressed disappointment with the film, calling it "typical cringe Shit made only to cash some money under the disguise of patriotism."
A third fan quipped, I watched Border 2. Honest truth:
It’s a cash grab. The movie has no soul."
"PAISA VASOOL BLOCKBUSTER. Just watched Border 2 and honestly... I’m shaking."
"Sunny Paaji ki dahaad sunke theatre hil gaya tha aaj! People were actually standing up and clapping during the climax. Varun Dhawan has completely reinvented himself And," another fan wrote.
