The first instalment of the movie showed how Rocky, played by Yash, born in poverty, rose up to be a dreaded gangster in Mumbai and how his hunger for power led to the gold mines of Kolar. The sequel will build on this hunger for power and his struggle to retain his control.
Production of the highly anticipated film was delayed due to the pandemic and subsequent lockdowns. Though the makers wrapped up the shoot earlier this year, they still have not announced a release date as theatres continue to remain shut.
The first part of the film released in 2018 to overwhelming response.
