Sajid
Nadiadwala
launched
Tiger
Shroff
in
Bollywood
with
Sabbir
Khan's
Heropanti
in
2014.
The
film
also
marked
the
acting
debut
of
Kriti
Sanon.
Six
years
later,
Tiger
is
all
set
to
feature
in
a
sequel
to
his
debut
film.
This
morning,
the
War
actor
took
to
his
Twitter
page
to
make
the
official
announcement
and
also
shared
the
first
look
posters.
Tiger
tweeted,
"This
one
is
so
special
to
me.
Blessed
and
grateful
to
be
carrying
forward
another
franchise
with
my
mentor
sajid
sir
forward.

Both
the
posters
feature
the
young
star
in
a
dashing
avatar
and
features
a
tagline
that
reads,
'The
world
wants
him
dead."
While
the
first
film
was
helmed
by
Sabbir
Khan,
Heropanti
2
will
be
directed
by
Ahmed
Khan.
The
latter
has
worked
with
Tiger
on
films
like
Baaghi
2
and
Baaghi
3.
Recently,
while
speaking
with
Mumbai
Mirror,
Tiger
had
confirmed
doing
Heropanti
2
with
Ahmed
Khan
and
Sajid
Nadiadwala.
However,
he
refused
to
divulge
any
further
details.
Earlier,
a
Pinkvilla
report
had
quoted
a
source
as
saying,
"After
Baaghi
3,
Tiger
was
supposed
to
begin
work
on
the
Rambo
remake,
to
be
directed
by
Siddharth
Anand.
But
that
has
been
pushed
ahead
one
more
time,
as
Tiger
has
decided
to
do
another
film
under
Sajid
Nadiadwala's
banner.
NGE
had
been
planning
to
make
Heropanti
a
franchise
for
the
last
one
year
and
they
have
finally
found
the
perfect
script
that
seamlessly
fits
into
the
mould
of
the
actioner.
Heropanti
2
will
also
have
Tiger
playing
the
lead
role,
reprising
his
character
from
the
original
which
also
happened
to
be
his
Bollywood
debut."
Further
talking
about
Ahmed
Khan
replacing
Sabbir
Khan
as
the
director,
the
source
had
added,
"The
production
house
(Sajid
Nadiadwala
Grandson
Entertainment)
has
a
long
standing
relationship
with
Ahmed
and
are
extremely
confident
of
the
Tiger-Ahmed
pairing.
Together,
they
delivered
a
175
crore
plus
Baaghi
2
and
now,
with
Baaghi
3,
they
have
taken
the
film
few
notches
higher.
Trade
pundits
feel
Baaghi
3
will
have
record
breaking
business
as
well,
so
Sajid
felt
it's
the
right
time
to
get
both
his
in-house
talents
to
come
together
for
Heropanti
2.
The
film
goes
on
floors
around
May
2020." Heropanti
2
is
slated
to
release
on
July
16,
2021.
Meanwhile,
Tiger
Shroff's
Rambo
remake
is
also
currently
in
works.
The
actor
recently
revealed
that
the
film
will
hopefully
hit
the
floors
by
the
end
of
2020.
Currently,
the
young
star
is
busy
with
the
promotions
of
Baaghi
3.
