Adivi Sesh is back in the world of high-stakes espionage with ‘G2, the sequel to the 2018 blockbuster ‘Goodachari’. Six years after the original film redefined South Indian cinema and the spy thriller genre in Telugu cinema, the franchise is all set to scale new heights with a whopping budget of ₹100 crores. This makes ‘G2’ not just Adivi Sesh's most expensive and anticipated films but also one of the most ambitious projects in the Indian spy genre.

G2 enters the Hindi market with the addition of Emraan Hashmi as an important lead. Known for his grounded performances and authentic portrayals, Emraan’s addition takes the franchise toward new horizons and an even wider audience.
Directed by Vinay Kumar Sirigineedi, the mega-budget justifies the film's ambition to push boundaries both in scale and storytelling. With ‘G2’, the makers are not just building on the success of the original but are setting out to craft an experience that resonates internationally while retaining the emotional core that made ‘Goodachari’ so successful.
Earlier this month, the makers celebrated the six-year anniversary of ‘Goodachari’ by teasing fans with six stylish glimpses from ‘G2’. These sneak peeks perfectly captured the film's international flair, sophisticated style, and larger-than-life vision, setting the tone for what promises to be a visually extravagant experience.
The global vision and significant investment in top-tier production quality behind ‘G2’ is evident in its approach. The movie is packed with gripping set pieces, heart-racing action sequences, and intricate plot twists designed to keep audiences on the edge of their seats.
‘G2’s expansive budget also aligns with its pan-Indian release strategy. Slated for a grand release in the second half of 2025, the film will be available across all major Indian languages, ensuring it reaches a wide and diverse audience.
Produced by 'National Award' Winning Producers T G Vishwaprasad & Abhishek Agarwal under People Media Factory, Abhishek Agarwal Arts respectively alongside AK Entertainments, ‘G2’ is scheduled to release in the second half of 2025.+
