F: Chapter 1, turned out to be the all-time biggest hit in Kannada cinema while also going on to be celebrated everywhere in the country making 'Rocking Star' Yash a pan-Indian star and a rage among youngsters. Among the several factors that helped KGF: Chapter 1 attain the box office and a critical blockbuster status was the film being dubbed in Tamil, Hindi, Telugu and Malayalam languages, with the upcoming sequel, K. G. F: Chapter 2, also set to be released in the same format yet again this year.

With production on KGF: Chapter 2 still underway and a high octane action sequence recently being shot featuring Yash and Bollywood superstar, Sanjay Dutt, who is the film's prime antagonist, it is now being reported that this Prashant Neel directorial will most likely be making its way to theatres later this year in October as a Dusshera holidays treat after initial plans were to release it as a grand summer feast.
