The source, quoted in a Hindustan Times report, revealed that Devgn and director Vikas Bahl are pleased with the audience response to Shaitaan, which was released on March 8, 2024. This positive reception has paved the way for a highly anticipated sequel.

While casting for Shaitaan 2 is still underway, there’s a strong possibility that the original cast – including Devgn, R. Madhavan, Jyothika, Janki Bodiwala, and Anngad Raaj – will reprise their roles. Filming is expected to begin within a few months after finalising the cast.

The source further shared details about the sequel’s setting. Unlike the first film, Shaitaan 2 will delve into the complexities and dark energies associated with black magic in Kokam, Maharashtra, a location known as the state’s “black magic centre.” The story promises a fresh perspective on black magic, moving beyond the concept of a targeted family and exploring a different narrative.

Later, the portal reached out to actress Janki Bodiwala for confirmation of the same, however, she remained tight-lipped, mirroring the filmmakers’ strategy of maintaining suspense. She playfully hinted at the importance of surprises in a film like Shaitaan 2, stating, “Expect the unexpected and get ready for a rollercoaster ride of devilish proportions!”
