The concept of sequels is not followed much in Bollywood or Tollywood. However, there are times when certain titles create a strong impact with the audience and that leads to the makers patenting that title and adding numbers to it. Using that, they come up with different stories and make their money.
Perhaps the only authentic sequel in the recent times in Tollywood is Rakta Charitra from RGV wherein the part 2 was a continuation to the first movie. Keeping that aside, we saw S’ which was just a number. Very soon, few more number tagged titles are coming.
They are Ice Cream 2, Kick 2, Gabbar Singh 2. While we consider it to be about the title and its connectivity, some film folks say it is also about the sentiment. Giving them the benefit of doubt, we now have to wait and see if this sentiment will work in their favor or not. Coming back to an authentic sequel, perhaps the magnum opus Baahubali is the nearest one around.
