Cult Gangster Drama's Sequel: Will Magic Recreate?

Sanjay Dutt’s cult classic Vaastav was one of the best sleeper hits of Sanjay Dutt’s professional career. Though the film had a disastrous opening at the box office, it picked up pace and led to one of the best films for Sanjay Dutt.

After the film was declared a decent hit at the box office, makers aimed to go for a sequel titled Hathyar which turned out to be an utter disaster at the box office.

After 26 years of Vaastav, the makers including Mahesh Manjrekar and Sanjay Dutt are about to re-unite for the much-awaited sequel of the film. While Hathyar wasn’t officially stated to be a sequel with the same name, Vaastav 2 is in talks currently.

According to several sources, the film will be a part of the Vaastav franchise and will not be any continuation of the first installment. The script demands two main leads and the shooting might start at the end of 2025.

Makers are currently in search of a young and bold actor who can play the younger self of the main lead. If the script and performances hit the right spot, Vaastav 2 might become one of the biggest gangster films in the country.




As Sanjay Dutt has been a part of several Pan-Indian films in recent times, this might be the perfect comeback for the renowned star. It remains to be seen how things turn out for the makers and Sanjay Dutt as they aim to make Vaastav 2 a reality for the viewers.
