BREAKING: Ajay Devgn's Shaitaan 2 to expand with new actors on board, filming begins in 2026 after Golmaal FIVE
According to a source close to the development, Shaitaan 2 will have new actors on board besides retaining its original star cast, Ajay Devgn, R Madhavan, Jyothika, and Janki Bodiwala. Furthermore, the official announcement of Shaitaan 2 can be expected with Kajol's upcoming release, Maa, on the big screen.
Reportedly, the makers have woven a smooth connection between Shaitaan and Maa, which can elevate the chilling experience for fans. As Shaitaan and Maa cross paths in the same cinematic universe, Kajol's cameo in Shaitaan 2 shouldn't be a surprise. However, a concrete confirmation on the same is awaited.
Ruling out media speculations, Shaitaan 2 will be an original subject, unlike its previous installment. The supernatural drama is currently in the writing stage. Though the premise is locked, writer Aamil Keeyan Khan, who wrote the first part, is yet to finish the final draft. While the first part revolves around a family facing the wrath of black magician Vanraj, played by R Madhavan, the sequel will reportedly be set against the backdrop of the Konkan region of Maharashtra, infamous for evil practices.
Vikas Bahl will be back to helm the sequel. Shaitaan 2 is expected to roll on the floors in 2026, soon after Ajay Devgn's Golmaal FIVE with Rohit Shetty. The movie is planned to have a release in 2027, depending on its shooting timelines and post-production. Besides Shaitaan 2 and Maa, there will be fresh additions to the newly announced supernatural cinematic experience.
On the work front, Ajay Devgn will be next seen in Son Of Sardaar 2 and De De Pyaar De 2. While the former is slated to hit the cinemas on July 25, 2025, the latter is locked to release on November 14, 2025. The actor will commence the shoot of Drishyam 3 by September/October 2025, targeting an October 2, 2026, release.

Box Office Trends: Hrithik Roshan and NTR starrer War 2 headed for a Rs 27 crore start in Hindi
The Hrithik Roshan and NTR-led War 2 has opened below expectations in Hindi as the very early trends are indicating first-day business in the range of Rs 26.00 crore to Rs 28.00 crore. The opening has come below expectations, and the hope is on the film to make use of the extended holiday period over the next 3-days to hit a respectable number through the extended weekend. As off 5.30 PM, the Ayan Mukerji directorial has collected Rs 9.75 crore in the national chains including advances for the remaining shows, and is looking for a total closing at Rs 12.75 crore to Rs 13.25 crore. The national chain contribution for War 2 will be around 45 percent to 50 percent, which puts the first day business projection in the above range. The collections were not up-to the mark in the mass belts too, and the eyes are now on the business of War 2 on Independence Day. The early reports from the audience are not in the film's favour, but we will get the real idea of word of mouth based on the theatrical trend in the coming days. War 2 should have definitely taken a bigger start in Hindi, but it's probably the case of assets – teaser, trailer, and music - not landing as well in the cinema-going audience. On the plus, War 2 is flirting to be the number one opening, battling Chhaava, and the trend in the evening and night shows will decide the final outcome. In the era where most production houses opt for corporate bookings and self-buyings, YRF has managed to stay out of the rat race even in a scenario like this, and this deserves a special mention, as the easiest thing to do in this scenario is to buy tickets for the sake of perception.
