The upcoming actioner is a sequel to the 2023 film Lakadbaggha. Ad-filmmaker Sanjay Shetty will be directing the film which will be shot across South East Asia.

Confirming the news, an associate producer of First Ray Films (the production house behind the Lakadbaggha franchise), said, “We intend to make the wildest hand-to-hand combat action film from India and yes we are roping in many international action stars including Tony and Dan for the sequel.”

As per reports, Anshuman has begun training for the sequel. “Sunny Pang, Dan Chupong, and Tony Jaa are some of the biggest Asian stars and I am a huge fan of them. It will be a dream come true for me in addition to being a huge responsibility to be in an action film with any of them.”

Lakadbaggha (2023) also starred Ridhi Dogra.
