Producer Kumar Mangat Pathak has said the sequel to his 2018 film 'Raid', will be based on the real-life story of multiple raids at the houses and factory of perfume trader Piyush Jain in Kanpur and Kannauj.
The filmmaker was speaking at a panel discussion of the first edition of the Kashi Film Festival in Varanasi.
Pathak is known for backing films like 'Drishyam' and 'Khuda Haafiz', he said he had made up his mind to make 'Raid 2' which will also show money coming out of the walls as it happened at Jain's house.
Piyush Jain was arrested after raids at his residence in Kanpur and residence and factory in Kannauj, which led to the recovery of about Rs 257 crore in cash, 25 kg of gold and 250 kg of silver.
The Finance Ministry on Monday had said it was the "biggest ever seizure of cash" by an enforcement agency.
The trader was produced in metropolitan court number 10 amid tight security and the court remanded him in judicial custody for 14 days.
