After a decade of waiting, there have been numerous rumours that Kick, a 2014 release, will receive a sequel. Indeed, Salman Khan fans will eagerly await this development. As per the latest reports, the superstar will be returning to his role as Devil (Devi Lal Singh) in the sequel to his smash movie Kick. As per Mid Day, Sajid Nadiadwala, who helmed the enjoyable action flick, is eager to get Kick 2 on floors in 2025.
Sajid Nadiadwala's involvement in Kick 2
A source informed the tabloid about Sajid's involvement in scriptwriting. Since he is in charge of multiple productions under his umbrella, he will also need to choose the schedules. He wants everything to run smoothly so that he can concentrate on directing Kick 2.
The filmmaker, who originally envisioned the Devil as a desi Robin Hood and is now producing Khan's Sikandar, appears to have started a discussion about carrying on the Devil's story.
Salman and Sajid are close friends, and the insider adds that they are both thrilled to be working together again on Kick 2.
Kick was based on the 2009 Telugu film of the same name and featured Nawazuddin Siddiqui, Jacqueline Fernandez, and Randeep Hooda among its other stars. Currently, Sajid is busy with two major productions: Sikandar, directed by AR Murugadoss, and Housefull 5, starring Akshay Kumar.
Sajid Nadiadwala's sentiments on Kick
Earlier, in an interview with Pinkvilla, Sajid spoke about Kick, stating that it was my debut feature film and that it remains his favourite intellectual property. Every time the filmmaker brings up Kick, he gets messages from people in the industry, and people online are asking when Kick 2 will be out. Rest assured, an expansion for Kick is in the works. They have written everything and are simply awaiting the appropriate time to get it rolling. They should release it at a better time and on a larger scale. In order to produce Kick, they require a return to popular cinema consumption. Once everything is back to normal, Sajid will be prepared to take Kick 2 on the floors.
It was in the filmmaker's thoughts at first, but now it's in writing. He just needs the audience's enthusiasm to return, and then they can kick off Kick 2 properly; Salman has also heard it.
