Kaalidas 2 First Look Poster
First look of Kaalidas 2 is retro styled with actors Bharath, Bhavani Sre, Abarnathi, Sangita, and Ajay Karthi seated adjacent to each other. Talking to a leading daily about the movie, director Sri Senthil said, “After the success of Kaalidas, I once again wanted to make a crime thriller about a police officer. Then it struck me why sketch a new cop character when I have the popular Kaalidas’s character in my hand. So, I decided to go for a sequel. The second installment will be a standalone story. The plot wades off from a typical thriller structure into more sort of a procedural film.”
