흥미로운 사실

Rock On 2 is a 2016 Indian Hindi-language musical drama film. It was directed by Shujaat Saudagar and produced by Farhan Akhtar and Ritesh Sidhwani. The soundtrack of the film was composed by Shankar–Ehsaan–Loy.

Production

Following the release of the first film, there were plans for a sequel. However, a follow-up went through prolonged development hell for almost 8 years. According to Rampal, this was because "it was important to figure out the story." The idea of the sequel was to have the same characters, but explore where they are now after 8 years. Pubali Chaudhuri spent 3 years writing the script.

The producers decided that there would be no romantic relationship or love story between the two leads. Saudagar stated, "Rock On 2 is not about an extramarital affair, it's a story of human bonds and is based on modern relationships."

Shujaat Saudagar, who had previously collaborated with Ritesh Sidhwani on Don 2 as an assistant, agreed to direct the sequel to Rock On after being impressed by the script. Saudagar admitted he is not in favour of sequels, but grew interested in this one after finding the completed story coherent with what he had observed of Rock On.

Akhtar had always wanted to make a film in Northeast India and stated that the film is a "visual treat", a tribute to the people of the North-East and an attempt to bring the whole region into mainstream pop culture.

Aside from newcomers Kapoor and Arora, the principal cast from the original film all returned for the sequel. The only member from the film's band Magik who did not return for the follow-up was Luke Kenny as his character died in the first film, while Rampal, Akhtar and Kohli all reprised their respective roles, a rare occurrence in Bollywood; Kenny, however, did reprise his role briefly for a song sequence in a flashback.
