2020 was a year of some mind-boggling web-series and among them was Kay Kay Menon starrer Special OPS, which was directed by ace filmmaker Neeraj Pandey. While the director is also collaborating with Ajay Devgn for a two-part epic period drama, Chanakya, the latest report suggests that Neeraj will be completing Special Ops before starting the Singham star's film. Talking about the development of Special Ops 2, a source told PinkVilla, “The character demanded a franchise as he can face bigger challenges in the intelligence world with every passing season. Through the lockdown, Neeraj along with his writing partner and co-director, Shivam Nair, developed and locked a script for season two, and is now all set to start shooting for it within the next two months.” Also Read - Amitabh Bachchan REVEALS people nowadays advise him to keep his mouth shut - read tweets
Reportedly, he will begin the shooting of the web series in February this year. “Neeraj is planning to shoot it extensively in India and abroad. He would finish the show by June, and plans to lock the final edit by August, to bring in on air in the last quarter of year. It’s yet another thriller tale set around the secret agencies of India. It’s a space that Neeraj is most fascinated about and given the amount of research he has done around how the agency functions, he is eager to bring different tales to the spectacle,” added the source.

Talking about Chanakya, the source revealed, “It’s a prep heavy film to be shot on a certain scale and both Neeraj and Ajay decided to take it on floors towards early 2022 expecting the on-ground scenario to be back to normal. Before Chanakya, even Ajay will wrap up his prior commitments and then allot bulk dates to Neeraj. The two will revisit on the exact dates of Chanakya shoot around June/July this year.” Special Ops featured Karan Tacker, Vinay Pathak, Saiyami Kher and others in key roles.
