According to a source of Mumbai Mirror, Sushant Singh Rajput and Vicky Kaushal are in the running for the other lead part. “And since the story revolves around a casino this time owned by a Chinese, the makers are considering Jackie Chan for the part,” adds the source. Jackie Chan has earlier shared screen with Bollywood actors Sonu Sood, Disha Patani and Amyra Dastur in her adventure-comedy film 'Kung Fu Yoga' for which he shot parts in India too. The 2002 'Aankhen' directed by Vipul Amrutlal Shah told the story of a man named Vijay Singh Rajput(played by Amitabh Bachchan) who worked at a bank but after he was fired, he plans a heist on the same bank and trains three blind men Arjun, Akshay and Paresh to execute it. Sushmita was forced to assist him in the same. The film ended with a huge and unexpected twist. How eager are you for 'Aankhen 2'? Does the new starcast interest you?
