Sanjay Dutt's character in 'KGF: Chapter 2' revealed
Chennai: Actor Sanjay Dutt will play a character called Adheera in the much-hyped upcoming Kannada action thriller "KGF: Chapter 2". The filmmakers unveiled a poster of Dutt's character on Monday, on the occasion of the star's 60th birthday.
The film is a follow-up of the Kannada blockbuster "KGF: Chapter 1", which starred Kannada star Yash with Tamannaah Bhatia and Ananth Nag, and released last year.
The Dutt poster officially announcing his association with the sequel gives a glimpse of the macho actor's rugged face, partly concealed by the edge of his turban and revealing only his fiery eyes.
In "KGF: Chapter 2", Dutt plays the antagonist. In the first chapter, Adheera's identity is never revealed, but we get to know that he gives up his dream of ruling the gold mines for his nephew, only to honour the dying wish of his elder brother, Suryavardhan.
"Present mother of all collision. Sanjay Dutt as Adheera. Wishing you a very happy birthday sir," producers Hombale Films tweeted with the poster.
"KGF: Chapter 2", is slated for a December release, and also stars Raveena Tandon in a crucial role. The cast of the first film will also returns, and the sequel, like chapter one, is directed by Prashant Neel.
In his recent interview to IANS, Yash promised the second chapter will be "bigger" and "better".
"When we made "KGF: Chapter 1", we had inhibitions, and restricted ourselves in some way. With this kind of success in our side, we are going all out with the second part. We now know people are keenly looking forward to the second part and we can deliver it without reservations. We've reserved the best for chapter two," he added.

Pakistan reports two more polio cases; Total tally now 52
ISLAMABAD: At least two more cases of poliovirus were reported in Pakistan, taking the number of infections to 52 so far this year, a report said on Friday.
“The Regional Reference Laboratory for Polio Eradication at the National Institute of Health has confirmed the detection of two more wild poliovirus type 1 (WPV1) cases in Pakistan," an official statement said.
The fresh infections — a boy and a girl — were reported from the Dera Ismail Khan district of Khyber-Pakhtunkhwa province.
“Genetic sequencing of the samples collected from the children is underway," the statement read. Dera Ismail Khan, one of the seven polio-endemic districts of southern Khyber Pakhtunkhwa province, has reported five polio cases so far this year.
Of the 52 cases in the country this year, 24 are from Balochistan, 13 from Sindh, 13 from Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, and one each from Punjab and Islamabad.
There is no cure for polio. Only multiple doses of the oral polio vaccine and completion of the routine vaccination schedule for all children under the age of five can keep them protected.
