It has been produced by Zee Studios, Cinergy, and Panorama Studios, and is a sequel to the 2020 action-thriller Khuda Haafiz.
According to a Box Office India report on Saturday, Khuda Haafiz Chapter 2: Agni Pariksha opened to 'collections of around ₹1.25 crore nett'. It added that 'collections in mass belts are lower' than those in Uttar Pradesh, Bihar and Gujarat. So, 'collections will probably be a few lakh less than Rashtra Kavach Om'. However, the figures were slightly better at multiplexes than those of Rashtra Kavach Om, the report added.
Ahead of the film's release, Faruk in an interview with Hindustan Times praised Vidyut, “I could talk about him all day. He has been metamorphosed into a large actor, there’s a lot I feel he takes from within also. He is superbly focused and surrendered to my vision. He has always been dedicated, but this time, he has put even more of himself into the film. There’s a scene in the film, very emotional, he became so intense while performing that he fainted for ten seconds. Be ready to see a new superstar being born!”
