Earlier, Alia Bhat was considered for the role, but she opted out due to other priorities. Confirming the news, Shraddha says, “I am extremely excited to be a part of Rock On 2. I am a big fan of the first part and and love the character I am playing in the sequel. It is a role that involves singing and live performances and that very few roles give you a chance to do.”
The film will be based on male-bonding. The music will be composed by Shankar-Ehsaan-Loy, with lyrics by Javed Akhtar
The film would be directed by Abhishek Kapoor, and produced by Farhan Akhtar. The Trio of Farhan Akhtar, Arjun Rampal and Purab Kohli would reprise their roles.
