About the series:

Reportedly, the series is about  Periyavar who finds himself racing against time to anoint a successor and safeguard his vast empire. As rivalries rise, Legacy explores the emotional and psychological toll of power, family, and the fight to preserve one’s name in a crumbling dynasty.

Madhavan’s upcoming work:

He was last seen in the Test with Nayanthara. He will be next seen in De De Pyaar De 2 with Ajay Devgn and Rakul Preet Singh. It promises a return to the fun, emotional chaos that made the original a crowd-pleaser.

About the trailer

The trailer picks up exactly where the first film left off — with Aashish (Ajay Devgn) and Ayesha (Rakul Preet Singh) still navigating their complicated age-gap relationship. In the new film, Aashish must now face an even tougher challenge: winning over Ayesha’s family. The two arrive at her parents’ home, played by R Madhavan and Gautami Kapoor, who try hard to appear open-minded — until they realise that Aashish is almost the same age as Ayesha’s father. What follows is a mix of awkward humour, emotional moments, and the return of Aashish’s best friend, played by Jaaved Jaaferi, trying to keep things from completely falling apart.

Adding to the chaos is Meezaan Jafri’s character — planted by Ayesha’s family as a potential match for her. What ensues is a battle of love, age, and approval, in true Luv Ranjan style.

The De De Pyaar De 2 trailer also pays tribute to Ajay Devgn’s classic moments in films  — including his famous Phool Aur Kaante entry scene, where he balanced on two bikes, and his trademark Singham move of stepping out of a moving car with full swagger.
