KGF: Chapter 2 is the second instalment in the KGF franchise, with the first one starring Yash in the lead role. Both the films have been directed by Prashanth Neel. Besides Yash, the film also stars Srinidhi Shetty, Anant Nag, Nagabharana, Prakash Raj, Malavika Avinash, Achyuth Kumar and Archana Jois.
The much-awaited teaser of the film was released in January on the occasion of Yash’s birthday. The teaser, which was released before the scheduled date, clocked in around 16 million views within 10 hours of its release. The teaser showed glimpses of the main characters and the antagonist Adheera, played by Sanjay Dutt.
Sanjay Dutt’s first look as Adheera was released on the occasion of his birthday last year. The makers revealed that his style was heavily inspired by the Vikings. Fans eagerly anticipate seeing Adheera on screen, after they received only a glimpse of him in KGF: Chapter 1.
Produced by Vijay Kiragandur, Farhan Akhtar is backing the Hindi version of KGF: Chapter 2 under his production banner Excel Entertainment. Recently, the Malayalam distribution rights of the film were acquired by Mollywood star Prithviraj’s home banner, Prithviraj Productions.
