Sardar 2 is the upcoming sequel to the 2022 Tamil action thriller Sardar, directed by P.S. Mithran. The film stars Karthi in dual roles, continuing the story of Chandra Bose and his son Vijay Prakash, both of whom are involved in secret spy missions. The sequel aims to explore their journey with more complex challenges and heightened threats.
Reports confirm that nearly 90% of the shooting is complete. The crew has filmed in various locations, including Chennai, Hyderabad, Bangkok, Azerbaijan, Kazakhstan, and parts of the United Kingdom. These diverse locations add a global aspect to the movie, reflecting the international scale of the story.
During the filming in Mysuru, Karthi sustained a minor leg injury while performing an action sequence. This caused a temporary pause in shooting as he took time to recover. Despite the injury, Karthi participated in the dubbing sessions, demonstrating his dedication to the project. The dubbing process officially began in March 2025 with a traditional pooja ceremony, marking an important phase in the film’s post-production.
The cast of Sardar 2 includes returning actors such as Rajisha Vijayan, alongside new members like Malavika Mohanan, Ashika Ranganath, and S.J. Suryah, who plays the antagonist. The involvement of these actors is expected to add depth to the narrative and enhance the overall viewing experience.
Behind the scenes, the technical team includes Sam C.S. as the music composer, George C. Williams handling cinematography, and Vijay Velukutty as the editor. Action sequences are choreographed by Dhilip Subbarayan. This talented group works together to maintain the high standards set by the first film.
Despite some setbacks, including the unfortunate loss of a stuntman during shooting, the team has prioritized safety measures to prevent further accidents. The incident led to a brief halt in production and prompted awareness sessions to ensure better protection for all involved in the film.
Currently, the production is focusing on completing the remaining shoot portions and moving forward with post-production tasks such as editing, sound design, and visual effects. While the official release date has not yet been announced, the film is expected to be ready soon, given the advanced stage of its completion.
