Ajay Devgn & Tabu are reuniting again for the much-awaited sequel – Drishyam 2.
Directed by Abhishek Pathak, the crime-thriller will be the Hindi version of the Telugu sequel (starring Mohanlal).
Ajay & Tabu will be reprising their respective roles as Vijay Salgaonkar & IGP Meera Deshmukh, along with Shriya Saran, Ishita Dutta, Rajat Kapoor, and others.
In the first part, the Salgaonkar family came under suspicion after the death of Meera’s son Sam. The sequel will eventually take the story forward.
Drishyam 2 Cast:
Accrding to a Pinkvilla report, Akshaye Khanna has apparently joined the cast. Reportedly, Akshaye plays the role of a tough and smart cop who is a close associate of Tabu and assists her in the investigation.
“In Drishyam 2 (as in the Malayalam original version), Ajay and his family and Tabu pick up their journey from where they left it in Drishyam. Vijay is now shown as a prosperous businessman living a happy life with his family when fresh evidence entangles their family in another new set of problems. He is determined to protect his family at all costs. The core remains the same – how an uneducated man again executes a perfect plan to save his family but from here the story has been written to adapt to pan India sensibilities.”

“Apart from the drama, intrigue and action, Abhishek and the writers of Drishyam 2 have fleshed out a new character (played by Akshaye), who is not there in Drishyam. Apparently, he plays a cop who is a close associate of Tabu and assists her in the investigation. Akshay is said to play a tough, smart, savvy, sharp cop who is on Ajay’s tails and determined to pin the charge on him. Everyone knows that Akshaye is very choosy about his roles but when Abhishek narrated it to him, the actor loved it. It’s not a supporting role but a proper one – written just for him and will probably stand out in terms of impact and performance.”

However, there is no official confirmation yet.
Previously, Ajay and Akshaye have worked together in movies like ‘Deewangee’, ‘LOC: Kargil’ and ‘Aakrosh’.
