Filmmaker Sanjay Gupta has reacted to the growing buzz around Kaabil 2, after social media went into a frenzy over his recent post hinting at a sequel to the 2017 Hrithik Roshan-Yami Gautam Dhar-starrer. The excitement began when Gupta responded to a fan query on X, saying that Kaabil 2 was “ready” and “deadlier,” a comment that was later deleted, but not before screenshots went viral.
Reacting to the overwhelming response, Gupta tells us, “My tweet was a reply in jest to a personal friend. The fact is that yes, Kaabil 2 has been written and this time it is indeed far more deadlier. But right now, the Roshan family’s complete focus is on Krrish 4, which I feel will be bigger than the first three put together. Anything on Kaabil 2, if and when, will only be announced by Rakeshji.”
Hrithik Roshan played Rohan Bhatnagar in Kaabil, a man living with visual impairment. The film portrays the lives of Rohan and his blind wife Supriya, whose happiness is destroyed by a violent crime. It then follows Rohan’s relentless pursuit of justice, showcasing his sharp mind, resilience, and emotional courage in the face of adversity.
At the box office, Kaabil faced a major clash with Shah Rukh Khan’s Raees upon release, which affected its overall collections. Despite the tough competition, the film performed reasonably well, recovered its budget, and was considered a moderate commercial success. Hrithik Roshan’s performance received strong praise and played a key role in drawing audiences to the film.
