Don 2

Don 2: The King Is Back, better simply known as Don 2, is a 2011 Indian Hindi-language action thriller film written and directed by Farhan Akhtar. It is the second instalment in the Don reboot series and sequel to the 2006 film Don. It was jointly produced by Akhtar, Ritesh Sidhwani, and Shah Rukh Khan under their banners Excel Entertainment and Red Chillies Entertainment. The film stars Khan as the titular anti-hero, and Priyanka Chopra as Roma, alongside Lara Dutta, Boman Irani, Kunal Kapoor, Om Puri, Nawab Shah, and Alyy Khan in supporting roles. Set five years after the events of the first film, Don, a powerful international drug lord, plans to steal currency printing from a bank in Berlin to take over the counterfeiting business in Europe, while Roma has joined the Interpol to hunt him down. The film's soundtrack was composed by Shankar–Ehsaan–Loy, with lyrics written by Javed Akhtar.

Following the success of the first film, Akhtar began planning a sequel in 2007, although plans did not materialize. The project was later announced in early 2010, with filming scheduled to commence later that year. Principal photography took place primarily in Berlin, where most of the film was shot. Jason West handled the cinematography, while Anand Subaya edited the film.
