A source further told DNA that, "A sequel to Badlapur, with a female protagonist and a completely new cast, is being planned. Dinesh has bounced the idea off to Deepika and she has loved it. It’s a character-driven role, just like Varun’s was in Badlapur. The script isn’t ready yet and once that’s done, the producer will give the actress a full narration and get her dates blocked for the film."

It is being said that Deepika Padukone is the first and last choice for the role for Dinesh Vijan since the latter shares a great rapport with the actress. The reports also suggest that 'Badlapur 2' will hit the floors in the second half of 2018.
