‘KGF Chapter 2’ is a sequel to the Kannada blockbuster ‘KGF Chapter 1’ that was directed by Prashanth Neel . First part of the KGF story follows an underdog who subsequently becomes a violent gangster, with Yash in the lead.
The second instalment of the film also features Sanjay Dutt, Raveena Tandon, Prakash Raj, Malavika Avinash, John Kokken, and Saran. ‘KGF Chapter 2’ released nationwide on April 14, 2022, in Kannada, Telugu, Hindi, Tamil and Malayalam and is produced by Vijay Kiragandur, under the Hombale Films banner. The film is being presented in North-Indian markets by Ritesh Sidhwani and Farhan Akhtar’s Excel Entertainment and AA Films.
Talking about KGF’s success, Prashant in an interview with news agency PTI had shared, “When we started with the film, we never thought that it would be this (big) and that we would be here today. We didn’t start by trying to make it into a pan-India film or for that matter, in two-parts. We started out as a Kannada movie and eventually thought of splitting it in two parts and taking it outside. The credit should go to the producer and Yash. For me, the idea was to connect with people with the mother-son story.”
