Ajay Devgn’s Raid 2 – All You Need to Know

The first section was based on a true income-tax raid on Sardar Inder Singh in the 1980s, which stood out from others because it was the longest raid in Indian history, spanning three days and two nights. The raid was carried out by IT department personnel. Bollywood Hungama reported that the movie began production on January 6. Furthermore, it will be filmed in a variety of locations, including Delhi, Rajasthan, Uttar Pradesh, and Mumbai. It is anticipated that the movie will carry on the legacy of the previous movie, which both spectators and critics praised.

A real-life income tax raid carried out in the 1980s by officers of the Income Tax Department under the Indian Revenue Service office served as the inspiration for the first section of the film. Ajay portrayed a law-abiding Income Tax Officer in the film who robs a powerful Lucknowi guy. In addition to earning favourable reviews from critics, the film was a box office hit.
