Lokesh Kanagaraj created a storm with Kaithi, delivering one of the biggest hits in Karthi’s career. Naturally, expectations shot up when the sequel was announced. However, as time passed, the project slowly slipped out of the spotlight.
The disappointment has grown now with Lokesh officially locking his next film with Icon Star Allu Arjun. Tentatively titled AA23, the film is set to begin shooting this year. With Lokesh fully committed to this project, Kaithi 2 has been pushed aside.
The situation has become clearer with Karthi himself admitting that he has no update on the sequel. The actor has moved on to other films, leaving fans with little hope in the immediate future.
As of now, the much-awaited Kaithi 2 stands put on hold. For fans who have been waiting for years, the silence hurts more than the delay. Only Lokesh Kanagaraj can clear the air, and until then, the wait continues.
