Reviewer: Dr. Blofeld (talk · contribs) 12:44, 2 June 2013 (UTC) Will post over next 48 hours.♦ Dr. ☠ Blofeld 12:45, 2 June 2013 (UTC)

Lead

• "It does not follow the regular sequel format but like a franchise with no resemblance to the previous story." Doesn't make sense.

 Done: Removed. Prashant 13:57, 5 June 2013 (UTC)

• "Rahul and Arohi and their romantic relationship, which goes through love and hate, twists and turbulence, success and failure in their lives. Poorly worded "twists and turbulence looks rather awkward, just say that the romantic relationship between Rahul and Arohi is turbulent.

 Done: tweaked. Prashant 13:57, 5 June 2013 (UTC)

• Nothing at all on the plot or production of the film

 Done: Introduced production details in the lead. Prashant 13:57, 5 June 2013 (UTC)

• "The film's music received positive reviews from critics and became very popular after its release; the songs "Tum Hi Ho" and "Sun Raha Hai" topped the charts across various platforms in India." Shouldn't this be after actual reception?

 Done: Placed it after reception. Prashant 13:57, 5 June 2013 (UTC)

• Lead needs a copyedit and reshuffle with a better summary of the backgorund to the film.

 Done: Copyedited it and summarized important details about its production and background. Prashant 13:57, 5 June 2013 (UTC)

Plot

• "As the film opens, large crowd was waiting " Large crowd isn't a person, you mean "a" large crowd.

 Done: Prashant 14:56, 5 June 2013 (UTC)

• " instead spreads a story that Rahul is out of the country for some stage shows." how about "instead publicizes a story that Rahul has left the country to participate in stage shows."

 Done: Prashant 14:56, 5 June 2013 (UTC)

• "Despite Aarohi's mother's disapproval, Aarohi moves in with Rahul and things go well until Rahul's addiction start to increase, causing him to become aggressive and violent." "start to increase" try worsens.

 Done: Prashant 14:56, 5 June 2013 (UTC)

• "To help Rahul fight his alcoholism, Aarohi takes him away to try and cure him but leaves her singing commitments." How about "Aarohi attempts to rehabilitate Rahul, sacrificing her singing career in doing so."

 Done: Prashant 14:56, 5 June 2013 (UTC)

Plot overall really needs a polish.

 Done: I have corrected everything, copy-edited and polished it. Prashant 14:56, 5 June 2013 (UTC)

Production

"Several media publications questioned remaking the original film, described as an "ageless musical", which is considered to be one the best Indian musicals of all time. They were concerned whether the music would meet the expectations of the previous film. Some said that it would be a big challenge to recreate music of that calibre." . Described as an ageless musical looks out of context here, text is superfluous. something like "Numerous media publications questioned the remaking of Aashiqui, given that the film is generally considered to be one of the best Indian musicals of all time, and were dubious that the producers could produce a soundtrack which rivalled it.

I've given that and the lower sections an edit. Pretty good effort overall, thanks for addressing the points, much improved now. I couldn't find much on actual production either. I'm happy to pass this now. You might want to look out for the highest grossing claims as India has a busy film industry and it could soon be challenged and become out of date.♦ Dr. ☠ Blofeld 16:25, 5 June 2013 (UTC)

Copy pasted

User:Anita francis2504 just copy the soundtrack section of this article and created a new article Aashiqui 2 (soundtrack) with it, then blanked the section. This is not the proper way to do it. It removes all attribution to the original writers of the section. This is also done without discussion and I don't think this article is long enough to be split.--Hindust@ni^{क्या करें? बातें!} 13:22, 20 December 2014 (UTC)

Proposed merge with List of awards and nominations received by Aashiqui 2

Main article is not long enough and this article should fit into that Titodutta (talk) 05:34, 19 March 2018 (UTC)

The article is actually under-completion. Once its completed, it would probably be long enough to hold a separate deal. Kalra2003 (talk) 20:02, 19 March 2018 (UTC) — Preceding unsigned comment added by Kalra2003 (talk • contribs)

• Comment: Film has been nominated 70 times. Per a general rule of thumb, if there are 50+ nominations, a separate article can be considered. But the main article is to small. If anyone expands the main article to over 6000+ words, I will support, but if no, I will oppose in say, 14 days. If this closes as merge and the main article gets expanded, I would be willing to support too. 2.51.21.246 (talk) 11:32, 24 March 2018 (UTC)

I will note that Kalra2003 created this offshoot article in violation of our sockpuppetry policy. He has no right to edit here, and anything he does can be reverted. So if the above proposal is something that any of you care about, you should take it over, lest it be deleted. Cyphoidbomb (talk) 02:40, 26 March 2018 (UTC)

Scratch that. I've deleted the article because of Kalra's block evasion and because there were no material improvements made by others. Cyphoidbomb (talk) 02:44, 26 March 2018 (UTC)

Plot similarity to A Star Is Born (1937 film)

Has anyone else noticed this? The 2018 film of the same name is also pretty similar, since it's a remake. I'm not sure if I can just say this in the article since it might be taken as original research but definitely there should be sources to support this.
