Remember Satyamev Jayate that was released in 2018 on Independence Day? It follows the story of a vigilante who killed corrupt police officers, and an honest officer is called to hunt him down after the body count begins to rise. Apart from the action and drama, Nora Fatehi’s much-talked about dance number “Dilbar Dilbar” became an instant hit. Now a sequel to the 2018 hit, Satyameva Jayate 2 will star Divya Khosla Kumar opposite John Abraham. Set in Lucknow, the film will tackle corruption.
Director Milap Zaveri extensively worked on the script during the lockdown and brought about a few alterations. Zaveri shared that he changed the shoot location and story from Mumbai to Lucknow because it gave them a chance to make it more massy. In a statement, the director said that just like its prequel, Satyameva Jayate 2 would be for the masses. “The action in this film is going to be ten times more dynamic, heroic and powerful. John is going to smash, rip and annihilate the corrupt like he never has before on the silver screen, and Divya is going to wow audiences with her power-packed scenes, dramatic prowess, grace and beauty,” he added.
