Directed by Raj Kumar Gupta, Raid 2 continues the journey of IRS officer Amay Patnaik (played by Ajay Devgn), who returns after seven years to take down another high-profile white-collar criminal. Set against the backdrop of income-tax investigations, the film builds on the same theme as its predecessor, portraying the behind-the-scenes efforts of the Income Tax Department and their collaboration with intelligence agencies.
The film boasts a talented ensemble cast, including Rajat Kapoor, Saurabh Shukla, and Supriya Pathak in key roles. With its intense screenplay and sharp dialogues, Raid 2 explores themes of justice, corruption, and the perseverance of law enforcement in tackling financial crimes. Music by Amit Trivedi, Rochak Kohli, and others adds emotional depth to the thriller.
Released on May 1, 2025, Raid 2 received mixed reviews from critics but was well-received by audiences. Its commercial success placed it as the fourth highest-grossing Hindi film of the year. The combination of Ajay Devgn’s commanding screen presence, a suspenseful plot, and real-life inspiration helped solidify Raid 2 as a notable entry in Bollywood’s crime thriller genre.
