Whatever her role, Anushka Shetty promises to bring a fresh twist to the narrative. An official confirmation is yet to come, but the makers have already approached Anushka, and many insiders say she is likely to be a part of the project.

Kaithi 2 – Next Big Movie in Lokesh Kanagaraj’s LCU

Kaithi 2 is the next big film in Lokesh Kanagaraj’s cinematic universe (LCU). The first installment, Kaithi (2019), was a huge blockbuster and set the base for this ambitious universe. The sequel is expected to follow the story of Dilli, Karthi’s character, and explore more of his past, adding rich backstory and depth.

Lokesh is currently busy with Coolie, a huge action thriller featuring superstar Rajinikanth alongside a powerful pan-Indian cast. Coolie is slated for release on August 14, 2025.

Once Coolie drops in cinemas, Lokesh will move forward with Kaithi 2. Karthi, who plays the lead, is excited to return to this role. Anushka Shetty’s addition will certainly raise curiosity and viewership. The makers are expected to release an official announcement once Coolie is out.

Anushka Shetty’s Comeback with Kaithi 2

For Anushka Shetty, this opportunity to be a part of Kaithi 2 could become a game-changer in her career. She last acted in Miss Shetty Mr Polishetty in 2023 alongside Naveen Polishetty. Anushka is currently busy with her Malayalam thriller Kathanar, The Wild Sorcerer, directed by Rojin Thomas, and Ghaati, directed by Krish Jagarlamudi. If her role in Kaithi 2 is confirmed, it will become a huge comeback moment for her in a big action thriller.

Fans are excited to see Anushka alongside Karthi once again after their 2013 film Alex Pandian. The combination of Anushka Shetty and Karthi under Lokesh Kanagaraj’s direction promises a powerful cinematic experience.
