that
Asha
Sharath
and
Siddique,
who
played
the
antagonist
Varun's
parents
will
also
appear

as
the
movie
is
a
continuation
from
where
the
first
part
ended.
Antony
Perumbavoor,
the
producer
who
made
a
cameo
appearance

is
said
to
be

a
pivotal
character

time.
According
to
Mohanlal
and
Jeethu
Joseph,
a
sequel
for
Drishyam
has
been
in
consideration
for
the
longest
time.
But,
the
team
was
planning
to
proceed
with
it
once
the
actor-director
duo
completes
their
much-awaited
second
collaboration
Ram,
the
upcoming
action
thriller.
However,
Ram
is
currently
delayed
due
to
the
lockdown,
and
thus
the
makers
decided
to
proceed
with
Drishyam
2
instead.
Drishyam
2,
which
is
expected
to
start
rolling
immediately
after
the
lockdown
ends,
is
planned
to
be
filmed
in
a
60
days-long
single
schedule.
The
movie,
which
will
be
shot
entirely
in
Kerala,
will
also
feature
a
few
new
additions
in
its
star
cast.
The
highly
anticipated
Mohanlal-Jeethu
Joseph
project
is
produced
by
Antony
Perumbavoor,
under
the
banner
Aashirvad
Cinemas.
