Agnee 2 is a 2015 Bangladeshi-Indian action film directed by Iftakar Chowdhury. It is the second installment in the Agnee film franchise and serves as a sequel to Agnee (2014). The film stars Mahiya Mahi and Om Sahani in the lead roles. Mahi is the only actress from the previous film to appear in Agnee 2, with Om replacing Arifin Shuvoo.[2]

After the initial success of Agnee (2014), production company Jaaz Multimedia announced a sequel. Although the film was originally planned with the cast of the previous film, the film stalled for a while due to lead actor Arifin Shuvoo pulling out of the film due to professional differences and scheduling issues.[3] Director Iftakar Chowdhury later roped in Indian actors Ashish Vidyarthi, for the negative role, and Om, for the male lead. The film is produced by Abdul Aziz, his production company Jaaz Multimedia funded approximately 70% of the film's budget while Eskay Movies funded the rest.[citation needed]

The film was released on July 18, 2015, in Bangladesh during Eid weekend by Jaaz Multimedia and August 14, 2015, in India by Eskay Movies. Majority of the filming took place in Thailand.[4]
