Shahid Kapoor returns as Sunny in Farzi 2 Created and directed by Raj and DK, Farzi premiered on Amazon Prime Video in 2023. The black comedy crime thriller follows Sunny, a talented artist who turns to counterfeiting with his friend Firoz, played by Bhuvan Arora, in an attempt to save his grandfather’s struggling printing press.

Their operation draws them into the criminal network of Mansoor Dalal, played by Kay Kay Menon, while Vijay Sethupathi’s Michael Vedanayagam leads the task force pursuing them. Raashii Khanna plays Megha, an RBI officer whose personal connection with Sunny complicates the investigation.

The first season ended on a tense note, with Sunny moving further into the world of crime after the death of his grandfather, Nanu, played by Amol Palekar. His actions put him on a collision course with Mansoor, while Michael and Megha moved closer to uncovering his involvement in counterfeiting. Shahid Kapoor’s recent projects Shahid was last seen in O’Romeo, directed by Vishal Bhardwaj, which released in February 2026. He also starred in Homi Adajania’s Cocktail 2, alongside Kriti Sanon and Rashmika Mandanna, which released on June 19, 2026.

Meanwhile, the actor has reportedly been linked to a science-fiction romantic comedy involving a body-swapping premise, with Amit Sharma expected to direct. Further details about the project, including its cast and production schedule, remain subject to official confirmation.
