Taj Mahal 2 is based on a true story

Makeup artist-turned-filmmaker Devarajkumar is gearing up for the release of Taj Mahal 2. This will be the director's fourth project after Danger Zone, Nishabdha 2, and Anushka. Devarajkumar has written the story and screenplay for this romantic drama, which will also mark his debut as a lead hero. The film is currently in the post-production stage, and the makers are looking at a September 2 release date. 

Speaking to CE, Devaraj said Taj Mahal 2 is the title of his film but it has no reference to R Chandru's film, Taj Mahal (2008). "It is a romantic drama and is based on a real story that happened in Coimbatore. The incident haunted me a lot, and I intend to present it to the audience through Taj Mahal 2."

The film backed by Sri Gangambike Enterprises features Samruddhi Shukla as the female lead. The film's dialogues and lyrics are penned by Manvarshi Navalgund, and the music is scored by Vikram Selva. Venus Murthy has handled the cinematography for the film.
