After the success of Dhadak in 2018, fans have long awaited its follow-up. The original film starred Janhvi Kapoor, daughter of legendary actress Sridevi, and Ishaan Khatter, brother of Shahid Kapoor. It captured hearts with its emotional storyline and youthful romance. Now, after several years, Dhadak 2 is finally on its way, but with new faces and a fresh direction.

Unlike the first film, Dhadak 2 is being directed by Shazia Iqbal. She previously directed the critically acclaimed short film “Bebaak” in 2018. This marks a major step forward in her career as she takes on the challenge of directing a full-length romantic drama under the banner of Dharma Productions.

New Star Cast Brings Fresh Energy
The sequel comes with a completely new star cast. This time, the lead roles will be played by Siddhant Chaturvedi and Triptii Dimri. Both actors have already proven their talent in earlier films and are expected to bring a fresh and intense chemistry to the screen.
While Janhvi Kapoor and Ishaan Khatter were praised for their performances in the original film, the decision to recast the leads suggests that Dhadak 2 will not be a direct continuation but rather a new love story under the same title.
Dhadak 2 Posters Hint at a Powerful Storyline
Along with the release date, two cinematic posters of the film have also been unveiled. The posters have received a strong response and hint at the movie’s intense emotional themes.
One of the posters includes a powerful line:
“If I have to choose between dying or fighting, I’ll choose to fight.”
This bold quote strongly suggests that the story will revolve around a passionate love affair where the characters may be forced to fight against societal or personal challenges for their relationship.
