New Update

Bollywood star Ajay Devgn on Thursday commenced shooting for the sequel to his 2015 crime thriller Drishyam.

Directed by the late filmmaker Nishikant Kamat, Drishyam was a remake of Mohanlal-starrer Malayalam-language movie of the same name, which had its second film released in February last year on Amazon Prime Video.

Drishyam narrates the story of a family of four whose lives turn upside down following an unfortunate incident that happens to their older daughter.

Devgn is all set to reprise his role of Vijay Salgoankar in the sequel, which will also feature the star cast of the first film -- Tabu, Shriya Saran and Ishita Dutta.

Abhishek Pathak will direct the next chapter in this franchise, which begins seven years after the events and tests Vijay's resolve to protect his family for whom he would cross any limits.

Devgn said he is excited to present an interesting story with "Drishyam 2" and once again play the multidimensional character of Vijay Salgaonkar.

Pathak, who has earlier helmed Ujada Chaman and also produced films like Pyaar Ka Punchnama and Raid, said he feels honoured to make an official remake of a successful franchise.

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.

Bhushan Kumar of T-Series said the sequel will be a "notch higher" than the first Drishyam.

Kumar Mangat Pathak, Chairman and Managing Director, Panorama Studios said he is delighted to back Drishyam 2 and with his son Abhishek helming the film, it gives him a sense of pride and accomplishment.

Viacom 18 Presents Gulshan Kumar, T-Series and Panorama Studios presents, Drishyam 2 is being filmed in Mumbai with Devgn. It will be extensively shot in Goa in the following months.
