Raid 2 also stars Vaani Kapoor, Rajat Kapoor, Saurabh Shukla, and Amit Sial, while Tamannaah Bhatia and Jacqueline Fernandez have shot for two item songs. The much-awaited film is the direct sequel of the 2018 film Raid. Made in Rs 40 crore, the 2018 crime thriller was a massive commercial success as it earned Rs 103 crore net in India and grossed Rs 154 crore gross worldwide at the box office. And hence, the chances of Raid 2 working at the box office are extremely high. 

Like the original, the sequel draws inspiration from real-life income tax raids, showcasing how officers from the Income Tax Department, in collaboration with intelligence agencies, investigate and expose white-collar criminal activities. Raid 2 has been directed by Raj Kumar Gupta, who also helmed the first part.
