Ajay Devgn starts filming for the Hindi remake of ‘Drishyam 2’

Ajay Devgn has begun filming for the sequel to 'Drishyam,' which also stars Tabu, Shriya Saran, and Ishita Dutta and the film is directed by Abhishek Pathak

Ajay Devgn has begun filming for 'Drishyam 2' in Mumbai and it will be extensively shot in Goa in the next month. It picks up seven years after the events of the first film and puts Vijay's commitment to defend his family to the test. In every manner, this film aspires to do justice to the 'crime-thriller' genre. 

Talking about the film, the actor said,

Drishyam was loved and it’s a legend. I am now elated to present yet another interesting story with Drishyam 2. Vijay is a multidimensional character and he creates an engaging narrative onscreen. Abhishek Pathak (director) has a fresh vision for this film. I’m keenly looking forward to part 2, filling in the large shoes of the earlier film with people investing in the mystery and the characters

The film’s director Abhishek Pathak while talking about the film, said,

Making an official remake of a successful franchise film is an honour and a challenge. An opportunity to work along with Mr. Ajay Devgn, who is such a powerhouse of talent is a morale-booster for any creative person; his unique influence is undoubtedly the most enriching experience for me personally. It’s exciting to retell a story from your own perspective and vision by divergent visuals in the most justified yet extraordinary way. The setting and the mood of the film uplifts the very essence of the crux making it gripping from the very beginning

Drishyam 2 is produced by Bhushan Kumar, Kumar Mangat Pathak, Abhishek Pathak, Krishan Kumar, and co-produced by Sanjeev Joshi, Aditya Chowksey, and Shiv Chanana.
