The much-anticipated film Bichagadu 2 (Pichaikkaran 2 in Tamil), starring actor-music composer Vijay Antony and directed by Vijay Antony himself, has finally been released yesterday. Following the phenomenal success of Bichagadu in the Telugu states, there has been a considerable buzz surrounding Bichagadu 2.
In recent news, it has been revealed that the digital rights of the film have been acquired by the OTT platform Disney Plus Hotstar. This information was prominently displayed during the opening credits of the movie. Fans are eagerly awaiting to see if Bichagadu 2 can replicate the success of its predecessor.
The film features Kavya Thapar as the female lead, along with Hareesh Peradi, Radha Ravi, Y.G. Mahendran, Mansoor Ali Khan, John Vijay, and Dev Gill in other significant roles. Apart from directing, Vijay Antony has also composed the music for this project. The film is produced by Vijay’s wife, Fathima Vijay, under the Vijay Antony Film Corporation banner.
However, despite the makers’ efforts to capitalize on the craze surrounding Bichagadu, Bichagadu 2 has failed to live up to the expectations set by its predecessor. The film’s reception and success at the box office remain to be seen.
