Directed by Nelson Dilipkumar, the sequel brings back Rajinikanth as Tiger Muthuvel Pandian. The ensemble cast includes Mohanlal, Shivarajkumar, Ramya Krishnan, Vijay Sethupathi, Vidya Balan, and Mithun Chakraborty, with music composed by Anirudh Ravichander. However, the Hindi release faced hurdles as major multiplex chains declined to screen the dubbed version due to a disagreement over the proposed OTT release window and the gap before its streaming debut.
