Sadak 2 is produced and directed by Mahesh Bhatt himself. The film was earlier to be released in theatres but its co-production company Fox Star Studios decided to release it on OTT.
The film is about a man’s depression and how he helps a young woman’s encounter with a godman and is out to expose this fake guru running an ashram.
The shooting began 18 May 2019 and the film was shot in Ooty, Mumbai, Mysore and Uttarakhand.
