According to a source quoted by Bollywood Hungama, work on the script for Shaitaan 2 has begun. Once the script is finalized, the filmmakers, along with Ajay Devgn, will decide on the timeline for the film's production. Given that the first installment was one of the year's biggest hits and received significant acclaim, the team is determined to take their time to ensure the script is well-crafted before proceeding.

The source went on to mention that with Shaitaan 2 and Son Of Sardaar 2, Ajay Devgn has established himself as the only Indian actor to lead the most successful film franchises, each spanning different genres such as action, drama, romance, and comedy.

The source also noted that the global trend of franchise films has become increasingly popular, with fans eager to see their favorite actors return to their iconic roles. Ajay Devgn has embraced this trend, consistently delivering successful franchise projects, keeping fans engaged and building anticipation for his characters' next appearances. 


Meanwhile, on the work front, Ajay Devgn has an exciting lineup of projects and he is currently finished shooting for Singham Again. The action film boasts a stellar cast, including Deepika Padukone, Kareena Kapoor Khan, Tiger Shroff, Arjun Kapoor, Jackie Shroff, Ranveer Singh, and Akshay Kumar. The movie is scheduled for release during the Diwali 2024 festive season. 

Ajay Devgn has also begun filming Son of Sardaar 2, a project he stars in alongside Mrunal Thakur. The movie, which started production in the UK, was uniquely announced with Punjabi dhol beats.
