Director talks about the story of Sarfarosh 2

In 2021, director John Matthew Matthan talked about the sequel and what will be the story. He said, “The sequel is about the internal security of the country. It was extremely challenging to write. The film is more realistic because I don’t have the compulsion to put songs in it. I had to do it then because that’s how the business was. Today that has changed. My film will be more realistic and dramatic. It, of course, also has politics, but it isn’t about a political party. India’s security is more important than anything else, anyone’s belief,” Matthan told PTI on the sidelines of the 51st International Film Festival of India (IFFI).
