Director PS Mithran has confirmed that discussions are taking place over a potential Hindi film featuring Dhanush and Kareena Kapoor, though he has stopped short of revealing specific details about the project.
While promoting ‘Sardar 2’, Mithran was asked about reports linking him to the proposed Hindi-language project, which is also said to involve producer Sanjay Leela Bhansali.
The filmmaker indicated that conversations regarding the film are underway and expressed hope that they would eventually lead to a positive development. When asked for more clarity, he remained guarded but suggested that audiences could expect encouraging news.
Mithran is currently focused on ‘Sardar 2’, his follow-up to the 2022 Karthi-starrer. The sequel is being positioned as a larger-scale action drama, with its teaser hinting at a more intense story and a possible confrontation between Karthi and SJ Suryah.
Rajisha Vijayan returns from the first film, while the new cast includes Malavika Mohanan, Ashika Ranganath and Yogi Babu. Produced by S Lakshman Kumar and Ishan Saksena, with A Venkatesh as co-producer, the film is backed by Prince Pictures and Ivy Entertainment. The team has filmed portions of the project in several locations, including overseas.
The story comes from Mithran, while Nambi has written the script. Rathna Kumar, Aashameera Aiyappan and Vignesh Muniyandi have contributed to the screenplay.
Sam CS has composed the music, with George C Williams handling cinematography and Vijay Velukutty editing the film. Rajeevan Nambiar is the production designer, while Dhilip Subbarayan and Chethan D’Souza have worked on the action sequences. ‘Sardar 2’ is scheduled for a September 10 theatrical release.
