Ajay Devgn and Tabu starrer Drishyam that released in 2015 had blown the audience away with its gripping storyline and unexpected climax. The film helmed by Nishikant Kamat was the remake of the 2013 Malayalam-language film of the same name. Now the makers of the original Drishyam have released its sequel. Naturally, the Hindi audience is excited to know if the makers of Ajay and Tabu are also planning to make its sequel. And looks like we may get to see Ajay and Tabu reunite for Drishyam 2.
According to the Pinkvilla report, filmmaker Kumar Mangat has bought the rights to Drishyam 2. Interestingly he had also produced the Hindi version of Drishyam.
Mohanlal’s Drishyam 2 premiered on Amazon Prime Video on February 19. The audience and critics have praised the sequel and look like very soon we will get to watch the Hindi version of Drishyam 2, as the Malayalam film’s rights have been already sold.

Revealing about Kumar Mangat buying the rights of Drishyam 2, a source was quoted saying in Pinkvilla as, “Drishyam is a very special film for Kumar ji and he wanted to make sure that he bags the rights of Drishyam 2 as well. However, there is no clarity on who will direct and act in the Hindi version of Drishyam 2.” So the rights of Drishyam 2 have been bought by Kumar Mangat. However, the makers are yet to decide if the old cast will reprise their role in the Hindi version of Drishyam 2. Drishyam that featured Ajay, Tabu and Shriya Saran was helmed by Nishikant Kamat. Unfortunately, the Kamat passed away last year after suffering from chronic liver disease.
Whereas, some reports are suggesting that Jeetu Joseph, who helmed the original Drishyam and its sequel may direct the sequel of the Hindi version as well. And while it’s not official yet, but we may see Tabu, Ajay, Shriya Saran and Ishita Dutt return with the sequel. Hope Kumar Mangat makes an announcement soon.
