Ever since it was announced that Mahesh Bhatt is returning to direction with a sequel to Sadak, fans have been desperately waiting for the film. Sadak 2 has an ensemble cast of Sanjay Dutt, Alia Bhatt, Pooja Bhatt and Aditya Roy Kapur and while Sadak was a romantic thriller and the story revolved around that of a taxi driver and a woman forced into prostitution, in Sadak 2, Alia Bhatt will be seen exposing a fake guru who runs an ashram.

 A few days back, it was being reported that in the film, Alia’s character is out to expose a fake guru who runs an ashram and she will be accompanied by Sanjay Dutt’s character in this journey.

Mahesh Bhatt had said “Sadak 2 is about love, loss, and redemption” and when he was asked as to who will be playing the role of the godman in the film, the filmmaker said, “Gulshan Grover is not playing the role but we have a great actor playing that part. But Gulshan plays a very important part as well.”
