Padmaavat 2: Rise of Mewar
🎬 Introduction & Background
Name announced: Padmaavat 2: Rise of Mewar – a sequel to the blockbuster Padmaavat (2018) of the Rajput forest epic created by Sanjay Leela Bhansali
Director: Expected to be Sanjay Leela Bhansali, or an associate in the team to maintain the grand, sophisticated and meticulous style of the original.
Preliminary plot: After the Jauhar incident, when Mewar was in ruins, the second part focuses on the revival of the Mahishmati kingdom, exploring the new leaders and deputies who rebuilt the land. The story is expected to highlight struggle, politics, and loyalty
👥 Expected cast
Deepika Padukone (Rani Padmavati): Despite leaving this world, through flashbacks, spirituality, or spiritual legacy, the image of Padmavati is still very important.
Shahid Kapoor (Ratan Singh): If he survives, he will return to fight to protect Mewar — or perhaps leave a legacy for the next generation in part 2.
Ranveer Singh (Alauddin Khilji): Could appear as a villain in the past, in a flashback — or from a post-war political perspective.
New characters: This project promises to add Rajput generals, successors, and even pro-Arab/Persian factions to add political depth.
📽️ Trailer & production status
The first trailer (Teaser) has not yet been released — meaning there is no mention in official sources.
The original Padmaavat was recently re-released in theaters in 2025, sparking renewed interest and positive reviews — setting the stage for part 2
Development stage: The project is in the script/pre-production stage. The release date could be 2026–2027 if the pace is fast.
🌟 Expectations & Key Factors
Renaissance of Mewar: After the Jauhar tragedy, part 2 needs to create a new image of Mewar – reflecting the indomitable spirit, the ability to rebuild with intelligence and military.
Political drama: Civil war between clans, foreign intrigue, treacherous plots within the boundaries of power.
Epic visuals: Continuing the Sanjay Bhansali style – costumes, scenery, staging, music are still the highlights.
Spirit of Padmavati: Despite her sacrifice, her spirit remains a sacred inspiration for the people of Mewar, combining cultural – historical – spiritual elements.
🔍 Conclusion
Padmaavat 2: Rise of Mewar is a promising start for the next installment of the Rajput epic series. If executed properly, this will not only be an epic film – but also a new monument to the revival and pride of leadership after a historical tragedy. Between the dramatic challenge and the expectations of viewers, the second part promises to revive the Mewar flame in a way that is both traditional and modern.
