Sajid Nadiadwala Plans to Take Salman Khan Starrer Kick 2 on Floors in 2025
Sajid Nadiadwala made his directorial debut with Kick in 2014, a film that became an instant hit with its high-octane action sequences and engaging storyline. Now, nearly ten years later, Nadiadwala is gearing up to start filming Kick 2. According to a report from Mid-Day, a source revealed that Sajid Nadiadwala has been busy writing the script for the sequel.
“He will have to figure out the timelines because he is also overseeing several productions under his banner. He wants to ensure smooth functioning of the productions in order to dedicate his entire time to direct Kick 2,” the source mentioned.
Currently, Sajid Nadiadwala is backing Salman Khan starrer Sikandar. Despite his busy schedule, discussions about the storyline for Kick 2 have already started. The actor-filmmaker duo shares a great bond of friendship and are “excited” about their collaboration on Kick 2.

“We can’t be complacent; we have to provide a great cinematic experience. We need to work very hard to give value for not just their money, but also their time. They will be coming for the best and not the ‘decent’ or ‘okay’ zone of content,” Nadiadwala emphasized.
Kick, released in 2014, featured a stellar cast including Nawazuddin Siddiqui, Jacqueliene Fernandez, and Randeep Hooda. The film was an adaptation of the 2009 Telugu film of the same name and showcased Salman Khan in a dynamic role that thrilled audiences.
