What We Know About Kick 2 So Far
Though the project is still in its early stages, there have been hints about the sequel throughout the year. A report published by Mid-day in July revealed that Sajid Nadiadwala was planning to begin shooting Kick 2 in 2024. According to industry sources, Nadiadwala has been hard at work writing the film’s script, ensuring that it lives up to the high expectations set by the first movie.
In an earlier interview with Pinkvilla, Nadiadwala expressed his dedication to the project, referring to Kick as his “favorite IP.” He emphasized the importance of delivering an exceptional cinematic experience to audiences: “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.”
With Kick 2, Nadiadwala aims to raise the stakes and bring even more high-octane action to the screen. While details about the plot and cast remain scarce, fans are already speculating on who will join Salman Khan in this sequel. The original Kick starred Nawazuddin Siddiqui, Jacqueline Fernandez, and Randeep Hooda, leaving fans eager to see if these actors will return for the second installment.
The Legacy of Kick
The first Kick movie, released in 2014, was a major success at the box office. Directed by Sajid Nadiadwala, the film was an adaptation of the 2009 Telugu movie of the same name. It was praised for its action sequences and Salman Khan’s portrayal of Devil, a morally complex character who lives by his own rules.
Kick went on to become one of the highest-grossing films of the year, further cementing Salman Khan’s status as a Bollywood superstar. The film’s dialogues, such as “Aap devil ke piche, devil aapke piche,” became instant hits and are still remembered by fans today. Many fans fondly recalled these moments in response to the Kick 2 announcement, adding to the excitement surrounding the sequel.
Though Salman Khan has starred in many action-packed films, his portrayal of Devil stands out as one of his most memorable roles. Fans are eager to see how the character will evolve in the upcoming sequel and what new challenges he will face. With Sajid Nadiadwala at the helm once again, expectations are high that Kick 2 will deliver the same level of entertainment and thrill as its predecessor.
