The unit has just commenced shooting for the film.

John returns with the sequel to the 2018 hit Satyameva Jayate. The sequel was originally planned for a Gandhi Jayanti release in 2020, but Covid came in the way and the release got delayed. The Milap Zaveri film also features Divya Khosla Kumar. The action drama will reportedly present John's character fighting corruption in Lucknow.
Kick 2
Salman Khan and Jacqueline Fernandez, who had starred in the 2014 action heist film Kick, will be reuniting for Kick 2. The new film will bring back Salman as Devil (Devi Lal Singh), a thief with a purpose.
