‘Sadak 2’ is ‘special‘

Directed by Mahesh Bhatt, the film stars daughters Pooja and Alia

-

The first shooting schedule of Mahesh Bhatt directoria­l Sadak 2 has been completed, and actress Pooja Bhatt is convinced something “special” is taking shape.

Sadak 2 is sequel to hit 1991 film Sadak, a romantic thriller, which featured Pooja and Sanjay Dutt in the lead.

Pooja, also a part of the sequel, took to social media on Thursday to update fans about the forthcomin­g film.

“And it’s a wrap for our first schedule of Sadak 2. You know you’re onto something special when you wake up the morning after with a longing to be back on set. Thank you to the entire crew for everything and more,” she posted.

The first leg of the film was shot in Mumbai.

Sadak 2 will see Mahesh’s return to the director’s chair after almost two decades. The film also features actors Alia Bhatt, Aditya Roy Kapoor and Dutt.

While commencing the shoot, Alia had said she was petrified to feature in a film spearheade­d by her father, who had taken a hiatus from direction, with his last film being Kartoos in 1999, which also starred Dutt and Jackie Shroff. After stressing he would continue in Bollywood as a film producer, Mahesh decided to make one last film, which he announced on his 70th birthday last year, featuring his two daughters.

Sadak 2 is scheduled for release on July 10, 2020.
