A Sequel To Akshay Kumar's Blockbuster 'Rowdy Rathore' Is In The Development

Mumbai, December 22 - A sequel to Akshay Kumar-fronted blockbuster "Rowdy Rathore" (2012) is in development and currently in the writing stage, confirms writer KV Vijayendra Prasad. "Rowdy Rathore" is considered one of the biggest blockbusters in Akshay's career, in which he played a double role as Shiva/IPS Vikram Singh Rathore.

"Rowdy Rathore" is the remake of SS Rajamouli-directed Telugu blockbuster "Vikramarkudu", starring Ravi Teja, based on the story written by K. V. Vijayendra Prasad. About the sequel of RR in Hindi, Prasad told a news portal that Sanjay Leela Bhansali, who produced the film with Ronnie Screwvala, had approached him to write the next chapter of the film.



According to ETimes, the sequel will see Akshay Kumar and Sonakshi Sinha reprising their characters of Shiva and Paro from the first installment. However, the film will reportedly not pick up from where the first part ended and will have a new story to tell. Looking at the busy schedule of Akshay, the sequel of Rowdy Rathore is expected to roll out by the end of 2022.

Meanwhile, Vijayendra Prasad is also writing the script of Salman Khan-starrer "Bajrangi Bhaijaan'. The actor himself had confirmed during the pre-release event of "RRR" in Mumbai that the sequel to his all-time blockbuster film is in the works.
