The highly anticipated Raid 2, which features Ajay Devgn as an honest and sincere Income Tax officer campaigning against corruption, will see the actor battle it out with a new nemesis in the sequel. While the film, also starring Riteish Deshmukh and Vaani Kapoor, has already gone on floors, the makers revealed their interest in releasing it this year itself, in November. However, there has been change of plan. After Bollywood Hungama exclusively reported director Rajkummar Gupta revealing that the film’s release has been postponed, the makers have now announced a new release date in February next year.

In the same post, he added, “Riteish Deshmukh portrays the antagonist. The film also features Vaani Kapoor and #Rajat Kapoor” and continued by stating that it is “extensively filmed across Delhi and Lucknow”.

In the recent interview, Rajkumar Gupta had also expressed his happiness over reuniting with Riteish Deshmukh after the two of them recently collaborated for the latter’s web-series debut Pill. Maintaining secrecy on the negative character that Riteish will be playing, Gupta had shared, “More conversation about Raid 2 will happen when the promotions begin, like what character he is playing. But yes, it has been a great experience of working with him in Pill and Raid 2.”
Produced by Panorama Studios and T-Series, the film will be released now on February 21, 2025 in cinemas.
