Female Lead Finalizes Opposite Ajay Devgn In 'Raid 2'

Mumbai, January 8 - Bollywood star Ajay Devgn reunites with director Rajkumar Gupta for the sequel to their blockbuster film Raid, produced by T-Series and Panorama Studios. The movie was officially announced recently with the commencement of the shoot. ## Now, the makers have locked Vaani Kapoor to play the female lead opposite Ajay Devgn in Raid 2. The actress has replaced Ileana D'Cruz and will reportedly play the role of Ajay Devgn's wife in the crime drama. Ajay will reprise his role as IRS officer Amay Patnaik. ## It is said that Ileana D'Cruz let go of the movie to focus on her personal life and this came as a big opportunity for Vaani Kapoor who has already joined the shoot. Saurabh Shukla, who played the main villain in Raid (2018), returns to reprise his role as Tauji in the sequel which is said to be the continuation of the first part. ## The story of Raid 2 is also said to be a fictional one, unlike the first film which was based on the real-life income tax raid. It is written by Raj Kumar Gupta, Ritesh Shah, Jaydeep Yadav, and Karan Vyas.

Collaborating with fabulous writer Ritesh Shah, even if it means sacrificing on various acting assignments I am determined to do it, my excitement is high. This is going to be a tremendous journey, my leap to another league #Emergency #Indira", Kangana wrote on Koo. ## Ritesh Shah, who has written films such as Pink, Kahaani, Kahaani 2, D-Day, Rocky Handsome, and others, would write the script of Indira Gandhi's biopic as well. He also wrote Kangana Ranaut's next film, Dhaakad. ## Speaking to Pinkvilla, Kangana added, "Yes. This is going to be my second directorial. Even though I wanted another film, which I am also ready with, as my second directorial. But, it so happened that I was very keen to bring Indira Gandhi's story which has never been brought to screen. I was very eager to bring it to screen. I am very happy to be the director of this film. Looking forward to bringing the iconic story to the silver screen". ## The period film will be mounted on a very big scale, and have actors portraying Sanjay Gandhi, Rajeev Gandhi, Morarji Desai, and Lal Bahadur Shashtri among other prominent figures. Kangana will also be producing the film that will feature Emergency and Operation Blue Star. ## Kangana will next be seen in late actor-politician, Jayalalitha's biopic, titled Thalaivi.
