'Vaazha 2' cleared for release with U/A certificate

The Malayalam sequel 'Vaazha 2' is certified U/A and set for a worldwide theatrical release on April 2, 2026. Bookings open soon.

"Finally after 115 Days...It's a wrap for 'Vaazha II - Biopic of a Billion Bros!' - Vipin Das"

Chennai, March 28

The Central Board of Film Certification has now cleared 'Vaazha 2', the second instalment of the superhit Malayalam franchise 'Vaazha', for release with a U/A certificate.

The makers of the film made this announcement using the film's official Instagram handle. Putting out a film poster that showed that the film had been certified U/A by the Censor Board, the makers wrote, "Certified U/A 13+. Bookings Open Soon!! #Vaazha2 in cinemas worldwide on April 2nd, 2026!"

The makers had announced in November last year that shooting for the eagerly awaited film, featuring Hashir, Alan, Ajin and Vijayan among others, had been completed.

Taking to his Instagram page, producer Vipin Das had said, "Finally after 115 Days...It's a wrap for 'Vaazha II - Biopic of a Billion Bros!' As previously, we are introducing new talents and technicians along with seasoned actors you love to bring you the best. See you in theaters soon!!"

For the unaware, the first part of the franchise, 'Vaazha', which was directed by Anand Menen and which had featured Jagadheesh, Kottayam Nazeer, Azees Nedumangad, Noby Marcose, Siju Sunny, Amith Mohan Rajeswari, Jomon Jyothir, Anuraj O.B, Saafboi, Anshid Anu and Sruthi Manikandan, among others, had gone on to emerge a superhit.

The simple, feel-good film, which had the tagline 'The biopic of a billion boys', struck a chord with audiences and emerged a big winner at the box office.

Its success led the makers of the film to come up with another instalment, turning the film in to a franchise.

Producer Vipin Das, at the time of announcing the second part of 'Vaazha', had said, "Thank you all for the overwhelming support for 'Vaazha'. Your response has truly inspired me to move forward with fresh talents again. We are thrilled to announce the launch of 'Vaazha II - Biopic of a Billion Bros!'. I'm proud to present our debut director, Savin SA, and cinematographer, Akhil Lailasuran, who have been by my side throughout my career. 'Vaazha II' features an incredible cast including Hashir, Alan, Ajin, Vinayak, and many more."

He then went on to list out the core team of the second part. Naming himself as writer of the film and Savin as director, Vipin Das went on to introduce Harris Desom, P.B Anish, Adarsh Narayan and Icon Cinemas as the co-producers of the film.

'Vaazha 2' has been shot in a number of places including Dubai and Georgia.

Good to see new talents getting a platform. Savin SA as debut director is interesting. But shooting in Dubai and Georgia... hope the story doesn't lose its Malayali soul trying to look too global. The charm of Vaazha was its relatability.

April 2nd, 2026 is marked on my calendar! The first part was a proper theatre experience with friends. "Biopic of a billion boys" really resonated. Hope the core team delivers another winner. Booking as soon as it opens!

As someone who loved the original, I'm cautiously optimistic. Franchises often struggle to match the magic of the first film. Wishing the new director and team all the best. The pressure is on!

Producer Vipin Das seems to have a clear vision, promoting fresh talent. That's how our industry grows. Hashir and Alan were great in their previous works. Looking forward to this. Hope the music is as good as part one.

U/A certificate is perfect for a family audience. Malayalam cinema has been producing such quality content lately. Hope this continues the trend. My parents enjoyed the first one, so we'll definitely go together. 🤞
