After the huge success of Kick, filmmaker Sajid Nadiadwala recently announced its next instalment, Kick 2. While Salman Khan was an obvious choice for the sequel considering the fact that the audience had really loved him in his devilish character in the first part, actress Jacqueline Fernandez's presence in it was not confirmed. Several media outlets reported that the actress has been replaced by Amy Jackson who will shortly be seen in 2.0 with Rajinikanth and Akshay Kumar.
However, Sajid has rubbished all reports. Talking about where all these unconfirmed reports generated from, he said, “At an event, Salman was handing over the Best Director Award to me and he had said in jest, ‘Kick 2 is ready now, and Jacqueline, you are not there!’ He just joked and news spread that Jackie would be replaced in the film.”
When the filmmaker was asked about the actress' presence in the sequel, this is what he said, “Once I finish penning the script, I’ll be completely sure. But at present, she’s there in what I’m writing. But it’s too early to talk about it.”
Kick 2 is scheduled to release on Christmas 2019.
