Sadak 2, the sequel of Pooja Bhatt's 1991 hit film Sadak, has been locked for release on 15 November, 2019.
Mahesh Bhatt and Vishesh Films are presenting Sadak 2, which is produced by Mukesh Bhatt, read a statement. Earlier, Pooja Bhatt, who had starred in the original film with Sanjay Dutt, had said Sadak 2 will deal with the issue of depression.
Last year, Pooja had spoken about the new film, and said: “We are making ‘Sadak 2’ in which we are showing Sanjay Dutt in his true and present time (Sanjay Dutt is a Drug Abuse Survivor), so we are dealing with the issue of depression in that film but we are making a commercial film.”
“We have to make our point and we chose film as our medium because when you choose a mainstream format then your message goes deeper and wider," she added.
Pooja Bhatt had earlier told The Indian Express that the film is set to be about Sanju from the first frame to the last. “Sadak 2 will reflect the special relationship Mahesh Bhatt and Sanjay Dutt share...my character is unique, and this film like Aashiqui 2 makes you believe in love at a time when it’s so easy to walk away from a relationship,” she said. She said that it’s set to be her father’s ode to him.
Sadak saw Sanjay playing the character of a young man in love with a sex worker -- essayed by Pooja -- and fights against all odds to be with her.
