K V Vijayendra Prasad stated in an interview;

"Yes, I'm writing the sequel for Akshay Kumar's Rowdy Rathore. I am still working on the story. It's too early to share details about the story and the cast. To take ahead the story of hugely popular films is no easy task. It's difficult to crack down on an idea that has a good plot line and is entertaining as well. This is the first sequel for me, so I am looking forward to it".

Apart from Rowdy Rathore, K V Vijayendra Prasad is also writing the sequel to Anil Kapoor's Nayak.
