"Siddharth Anand has brought back the writer-director duo of Milan and Rajat together for 'Nayak 2' and he is excited to embark on the journey of making a one-of-a-kind vigilante-based action entertainer. All the action sequences aside, 'Nayak 2' is a dialogue and drama-heavy film and the casting is underway. A top A-Lister is expected to come on board the film," the source added.
