Directed and written by acclaimed filmmaker
Krishnadev Yagnik
,' Vash Level 2' is the much-anticipated sequel to the 2023 psychological thriller 'Vash.'
A Spine-Chilling Reveal
The poster reveals a dark, smoky background with a dominant close-up of Hiten Kumar's face — his eyes piercing through a shadowy veil, signaling the sinister forces at play. His eerie expression, paired with the tagline 'You will be helpless again,' sets a chilling tone, hinting that this sequel will dial up the horror even further.
Netizens react
Fans have already started reacting to the new look, calling it 'spine-chilling,' 'haunting,' and 'intensely powerful.' Another comment read, "Terrifying."
Familiar Faces, New Horrors
Actress Janki Bodiwala reprises her original role from 'Vash', continuing the storyline from where the first film left off. Joining her this time are
Hitu Kanodia
and Monal Gajjar, alongside Hiten Kumar, expanding the universe and raising stakes for the sequel.
Janki's return adds continuity to the dark theme tale, while new characters are expected to deepen the emotional and supernatural layers of the story. With a gripping plot and a seasoned cast, 'Vash Level 2' aims to deliver an even more disturbing experience than its predecessor.
Coming This August
'Vash Level 2' is all set to hit cinemas on August 27, 2025. With Krishnadev Yagnik returning at the helm and early promotional material already sending shivers down viewers' spines.
Meanwhile, the first part was remade in Bollywood by the name 'Shaitaan' and starring Madhavan, Ajay Devgn, and Jyothika in the lead. The film earned 3.5 stars from ETimes and our review read, "Madhavan is outstanding as the malevolent figure and pulls off every sinister deed perfectly.
Ajay Devgn delivers a powerful performance as a helpless but determined father. Jyotika stands her might, too. Janki Bodiwala deserves to be lauded for her pitch-perfect performance as the young girl under a devious spell. She laughs, cries, dances, and attacks on cue in immediate succession perfectly. Anngad Raaj as the son performs well, too. Even though Shaitaan's narrative stumbles at times, the masterful use of atmosphere and top-notch acting elevate it into an unsettling experience worth having."
