After a roaring success across the nation to the first chapter of KGF, the makers of the much-loved film have embarked on their journey for the second part, titled KGF Chapter 2. In March, the team of KGF including lead actors Kannada Superstar Yash and Srinidhi Shetty sought the blessings of the almighty by visiting a temple taking a headstart the sequel. Now as the craze around the film is refusing to die down, there was a buzz that Bollywood actors Sanjay Dutt and Raveena Tandon have been approached for a full-fledged role in KGF 2. In fact, leading man Yash confirmed in an interview that both the Bollywood stars were indeed in talks for the film.
While nothing much has been revealed about Sanjay getting getting on board, we now hear that Raveena has been finalised as one of the key characters in the film. “Raveena Tandon is going to play Prime Minister Indira Gandhi and it is very important for the film,” a source told a leading daily, adding that the sequel would be bigger than the first part. Well, we certainly cannot wait to see Raveena step into the shoes of former PM and if Sanjay gives his nod too, it would be a delight to see them share screen space.
Meanwhile, the success of Kannada film KGF, which was released in Hindi, Tamil, Telugu, and Malayalam, has proved that audiences are keen to accept crossover content. Incidentally, the magnum opus had the widest release for a Kannada film. KGF Chapter 1 marked Ritesh Sidhwani and Farhan Akhtar's Excel Entertainment's first Kannada venture and now the production house is yet again associated with the mega ambitious KGF Chapter 2.
