Ektaa Kapoor Confirms Development of The Dirty Picture 2 Fifteen Years Later
Producer Ektaa Kapoor has confirmed that The Dirty Picture 2 is officially in development, 15 years after the original film's release. The sequel will again focus on a woman-centric story inspired by a figure similar to Silk Smitha, who was portrayed in the 2011 film. While Kapoor emphasized the theme of celebrating female sexuality, she has not revealed details about the new film's lead character, cast, or release date. A larger announcement is expected in the future.
