Amid growing speculation, the makers of Salaar: Part 1 – Ceasefire have firmly denied reports that the sequel to the Prabhas-starrer has been put on hold. Recent buzz suggested that Salaar 2 faced delays following the reported box office performance of Prabhas’ film The Raja Saab. However, the production team has now clarified that the sequel is very much on track.
According to reports, a section of the media had claimed that director Prashanth Neel and Prabhas were planning to revamp Salaar 2 to suit changing audience tastes, sparking rumours that the project had been stalled indefinitely. These claims quickly gained traction among fans, raising concerns about the future of the highly anticipated sequel.
Putting all speculation to rest, the makers shared a post on their official Instagram handle on the occasion of actor Shruti Haasan’s birthday. The post featured Shruti and Prabhas together, smiling as they looked at a phone. The caption read, “Aadya showing Deva what happens to her in #Salaar2!! What do you think it is?” The post was widely seen as a subtle but clear confirmation that work on the sequel is continuing.
Fans flooded the comments section with excitement, with many interpreting the post as proof that Salaar 2 is moving ahead as planned. Several users expressed their eagerness for updates, trailers, and more details about the next chapter of the story.
Salaar: Part 2 – Shouryanga Parvam is expected to pick up from where Salaar: Part 1 – Ceasefire ended, further exploring the intense conflict between Prabhas and Prithviraj Sukumaran’s characters. Directed by Prashanth Neel, the first part was set in the fictional city of Khansaar and told the story of two friends who turn into rivals.
Released in December 2023, Salaar: Part 1 – Ceasefire was a major box office success, reportedly earning around ₹650 crore worldwide. The film also starred Shruti Haasan, Jagapathi Babu, Eshwari Rao and Sriya Reddy. With rumours now denied, fans can look forward to the continuation of the action-packed saga.
