Producer Bhushan Kumar Reveals Ajay Devgn's 'Raid 2' Enter Pre-Production Stage
Mumbai, May 30 - A sequel to Ajay Devgn's 2018's hit Raid has been in the talks for a long time now. It was even reported that the Raid 2 script had been locked and it would go on floors this year. Now, producer Bhushan Kumar has revealed that the movie is indeed in development but will go on floors only by next year. ## "The world had stopped for 2 years, but yes, Raid 2 is under production. Kumar Ji (Producer, Kumar Mangat) already has multiple ideas in place for Raid 2, he has in fact collated a lot of incidents that can be used in the Raid franchise. We will choose the best idea and then move ahead", the producer told Pinkvilla in a recent interview. ## "I already have two films with Ajay Ji - Bholaa and Drishyam 2 - so the Raid sequel will begin next year. Before that, we are remaking Raid down south. It's under discussion", he added. ## Raid, directed by Raj Kumar Gupta, is based on the real-life income-tax raid conducted by the officers of the Income Tax Department on Sardar Inder Singh in the 1980s. The raid distinguished itself from others for being the longest raid in Indian history, lasting three days and two nights. ## Meanwhile, Ajay Devgn is currently juggling between the shoots of Bholaa, and Drishyam 2. Both the movies are expected to be completed by August this year. The actor will also be headlining two releases this year, in the form of Thank You and Maidaan. ## Stay tuned...
