A still from the film
In 2019, Rowdy Rathore (2012) co-producer Shabinaa Khan had revealed that a sequel to Akshay Kumar’s hit action-comedy was on the cards. While the news brought cheer among the superstar’s fans, little was known about its development thereon. Now, almost a decade since the Prabhudeva-directed venture hit the screens, the makers are poised to present the sequel. The film is being scripted by Baahubali (2015) and RRR writer KV Vijayendra Prasad. While Rowdy Rathore was a remake of the 2006 Telugu hit, Vikramarkudu — which was written by Prasad — the sequel will only be developed in Hindi.
