New Delhi: A week after the heroism of superhero Krrish on the big screen, gear up to experience the chills and thrills of underworld drama with Ram Gopal Varma's 'Satya 2', which hits screens this Friday.
The film was originally scheduled to release on October 25, but it was delayed due to issues, which cropped up between Varma, and one of the producers of the film, Arun Sharma.
'Satya 2' is made within the budget of Rs 15 crore, according to sources. The hype around the film has been built up since a long time.
It was touted to be a sequel to Varma's hugely successful 1998 film 'Satya'. But the filmmaker has emphasised several times that the new film is not a sequel.
He has stressed on the fact that the film will stand apart from the other gangster dramas as here, the protagonist will 'reinvent the underworld'.
"'Satya 2' is about a man whose thinking starts where all the earlier real life dons like Dawood Ibrahim's and Chota Rajan's thinking ended," Varma had shared on Twitter once.
Said to be Varma's last gangster film, the movie will see debutant actor Puneet Singh in the lead role of a corporate gangster. It will also introduce two new faces - Anaika Soti and Aradhana Gupta.
The music of the film is varied with the promotional track being inspired by the theme song of Hollywood film 'The Godfather'.
"His way of working is different, his thinking is different. He does not kill his adversaries himself. He plans and he is a corporate style gangster," Puneet said in an interview with IANS.
The actor seemed to be itching to draw out differences between 'Satya 2' and Varma's 1998 hit crime thriller 'Satya'.
"This story ('Satya 2') is not a sequel or a prequel. This story and the character is very different and has a different set up. 'Satya' was about a character who comes to Mumbai in 1998 and how he is drawn towards the underworld."
"But in this (Satya 2), my character comes to Mumbai in 2013 with an idea, intention, motto and how he achieves his goal...that is the story. Both characters are different," he added.
'Satya' was released in 1998 and went on to become one of the finest films made on the Mumbai underworld. This film established Ram Gopal Varma as a filmmaker with a distinct style. Though most of his recent films have not been received by the critics and the audiences, but we all know his potential. He is capable of making a hard hitting movie but will 'Satya 2' be that film? Let's wait and watch. (With inputs from IANS)####
