Chandoo Mondeti, who directed Karthikeya in 2014, has helmed Karthikeya 2 as well. Nikhil reprised the role of the lead hero. However, the lead actress is changed. Swathi is replaced by Anupama Parameshwaran.

Speaking in a recent interview, Nikhil said that his character takes a whole new turn in the sequel. He said that there is nothing like they purposely omitted Swathi from the franchise. "The story takes a new turn in the sequel and we needed someone new to guide the lead hero in the film. And it should be a North Indian character. Thus, we took Anupama Parameshwaran," stated Nikhil. Karthikeya 2 will hit the screens on August 13.
