‘Raajneeti 2’ Storyline

Prakash Jha, who is working on expanding the successful political drama into a franchise, believes that the story still has much left to be told.

The story’s structure has been worked out.”

‘Raajneeti 2’ Cast

When asked about approaching Ranbir Kapoor to reprise his role in Raajneeti 2, Prakash Jha stated, “I cannot say anything about repeating the cast.” He added, “There are few (compelling) actors, and they are managed by talent agencies. The actors cannot take the decisions themselves. A decade ago, we could just meet the actor, narrate the story, and convince them to make a decision. Today, you cannot. Actors don’t read the scripts; their assistants and managers do. You have to go through three levels of management to reach the stars.” Jha also confirmed that he is currently not in touch with Kapoor.
