Bollywood actor Sunny Deol is teaming up with director Rajkumar Santoshi for the highly anticipated film Jaat 2. Santoshi is reportedly receiving a whopping ₹15 crore for directing the sequel, making it his biggest paycheck to date. The producers, Mythri and People's Media Factory, are excited about the collaboration and have Deol's support. "The producers and Sunny Deol are confident that Rajkumar Santoshi's direction will raise the stakes even further for the sequel," a source revealed.
The original film, Jaat, was directed by Gopichand Malineni, but he's busy with his period film with Nandamuri Balakrishna, paving the way for Santoshi to take the reins. Filming for Jaat 2 is expected to begin in late 2026, after Santoshi and Deol's other project, Lahore: 1947, releases. Santoshi's involvement is a major boost for the film, given his impressive track record with movies like Ghatak, Damini, and Andaz Apna Apna.
Santoshi's direction is expected to elevate the franchise, and producers are confident that his expertise will bring a new level of action and entertainment to Jaat 2. The original film earned over ₹118 crore worldwide, and expectations are high for the sequel. With Santoshi on board, fans can expect an action-packed ride.
The partnership between Santoshi and Deol is considered one of the most celebrated in action cinema, and their collaboration on Jaat 2 is generating significant buzz. As the industry awaits further updates, one thing is clear - Jaat 2 is shaping up to be an unforgettable action experience.
