The original ‘Raid’ was a gripping tale based on a real-life income tax raid from the 1980s, starring Saurabh Shukla and Ileana D’Cruz alongside Devgn. Ileana portrayed Amay Patnaik’s wife, adding an emotional layer to the intense narrative.

Ajay Devgn is currently riding high on the success of ‘Singham Again’, directed by Rohit Shetty. Released during Diwali, the film saw Ajay return as the iconic cop Bajirao Singham, a role he first brought to life in 2011. The latest installment of the ‘Singham’ franchise also featured an ensemble cast, including Kareena Kapoor Khan, Akshay Kumar, Tiger Shroff, Ranveer Singh, and Deepika Padukone.

‘Singham Again’ faced stiff competition at the box office, clashing with Kartik Aaryan’s ‘Bhool Bhulaiyaa 3’. Despite the rivalry, both films drew in crowds, making it a memorable Diwali for cinema lovers.

With ‘Raid 2’ on the horizon, fans of Ajay Devgn can gear up for yet another thrilling ride, blending intense storytelling with hard-hitting performances. Mark your calendars for May 1, 2025!
