Kaabil 2 Update: The much-loved revenge thriller Kaabil is once again in the spotlight as fresh updates about its sequel have reignited excitement among fans. Released in 2017, Kaabil starred Hrithik Roshan in a powerful and emotional role that showcased his acting depth, earning praise from audiences and critics alike.
Now, nearly eight years later, director Sanjay Gupta has finally addressed the growing curiosity around Kaabil 2 — and the news is encouraging.
How the Sequel Rumors Began
The buzz around Kaabil 2 started after Sanjay Gupta replied to a fan on X (formerly Twitter). When asked whether the film would get a sequel, the director responded enthusiastically, saying the sequel was “ready” and even more intense than before. Although the tweet was later deleted, screenshots quickly went viral, triggering widespread speculation.
Director Confirms Script Status
Clearing the air, Sanjay Gupta later explained that the viral tweet was initially a casual reply meant for a personal acquaintance. However, he also confirmed a major revelation — the script for Kaabil 2 is already complete.
Gupta shared that the sequel is designed to be darker, more dangerous, and emotionally heavier than the original film. That said, fans will need to wait longer, as the Roshan family is currently prioritizing Krrish 4. Any official announcement regarding Kaabil 2 will be made solely by Rakesh Roshan.
