‘Rock On!!’ was released on this day, 8 years ago. The film starring Farhan Akhtar, Arjun Rampal, Prachi Desai, Shahana Goswami and Purab Kohli went on to win the National Award for Best Hindi Feature film.
Now nearly a decade after the release of the first film, the makers are gearing up to release the sequel which will have a higher budget and a popular female star like Shraddha Kapoor.
“Rock On!! which is one of the two National Award winning films of ours completing eight years is even more special for us as we gear up for the release of its sequel coincidentally in the 15th year of Excel Entertainment” producer Ritesh Sidhwani said.
“We were waiting for the right script to take this franchise forward and the best part about this script is that it offers a platform for the next generation to take centre stage” he said.
‘Rock On!! 2’ will be directed by Shujaat Saudagar. The film will have the same cast as the first film, with Shraddha and Shashank Arora as the new additions. It’ll release in theatres on November 11.
Rock on 1st part was awesome ,But I think that this one will not be as good. The director has come straight after his last debacle fitoor. I also think that they are keeping Shraddha Kapoor maam just for the sake of collections, which is never a good sign as they had better options.
One of my fav movie
it will b remembered for introducing a different genre of music in bollywood
I expect ROCK ON 2 as youthful and musical as prequel….may be more…
Waiting For this one…
will be a movie to be watch out for …. i can trust farhan akhtar
he is a great director+actor +singer and never dissapoints in his movies
Looks great. Salman is Baap of Aamir heightless and SrGay
#True Salman Fans
Cool!!!Congrats!!!!
Eagerly waiting for Don sequel as well from Excel
By don sequel I mean Don 2 sequel
Sureshoot 100cr farhan shraddha=Blockbuster
I’m really waiting for this one, the first part was great. Hope they did a good job.
Indicine u love Shraddha too much i guess
Rock on 2 will easily overshadow Dear Piku.
Disastrous
@Dragoon bhai abhishek is not directing it. A debutant is directing it. Anyways rock on was a cult hit though not a big hit but such films r d toast of modern day bollywood. Had rock on released now it would hv emerged a big hit like pkpn2 neerja piku airlift. Modern day bollywood business trend favours such films.
rock on2 with a chartbuster music like d last one will get a big opening
@indicine fbo k liye best of luck
can’t believe that 8 years passed since the release of Rock On.. loved the film, was a bit slow but good.
