Last
year
in
February,
Tiger
Shroff
had
dropped
a
pleasant
surprise
for
his
fans
when
he
had
announced
that
his
debut
film
Heropanti
will
be
getting
a
sequel
titled
Heropanti
2.
Soon,
it
was
revealed
that
Tara
Sutaria
has
been
locked
in
to
play
the
female
lead.
Now,
if
the
latest
buzz
is
to
be
believed,
Nawazuddin
Siddiqui
is
the
latest
addition
to
the
cast.
As
per
a
report
in
Filmfare,
the
Sacred
Games
actor
has
been
roped
in
to
play
the
main
antagonist
in
the
movie.
Interestingly,
Tiger
and
Nawazuddin
had
earlier
shared
screen
space
in
Sabbir
Khan's
2017
film
Munna
Michael.
Coming
back
to
Heropanti
2,
the
first
shooting
schedule
of
the
film
was
wrapped
in
Mumbai
before
the
second
wave
of
COVID-19
pandemic
brought
everything
to
a
halt.
Reportedly,
Nawazuddin
will
join
the
cast
once
the
second
shooting
schedule
resumes
after
the
lockdown
restrictions
are
lifted
in
Maharashtra.
Earlier,
Tiger
Shroff
had
said
that
he
is
blessed
and
grateful
to
be
carrying
forward
the
Heropanti
franchise
with
his
mentor
Sajid
Nadiadwala.
Music
maestro
AR
Rahman
will
be
composing
the
music
for
the
film
while
Mehboob
has
been
roped
in
as
the
lyricist.
Speaking
about
the
music
of
Heropanti
2,
Mehboob
recently
told
ETimes
in
an
interview,
"The
songs
in
Heropanti
2
are
going
to
be
a
full
package.
It
will
have
songs
for
everybody
and
every
situation.
My
fans
can
expect
something
really
special
in
the
film.
I
assure
you
that
the
combination
of
AR
Rahman
and
Mehboob
will
not
disappoint
you.
I
hope
we
get
the
same
love
and
blessings
as
we
have
got
earlier."
Directed
by
Ahmed
Khan,
Heropanti
2
is
scheduled
to
release
on
December
3
this
year.
