The film is not a sequel to the 2009 [[Bengali cinema|Bengali]] film ''[[Challenge (2009 film)|Challenge]]'' containing a very different storyline. Major parts of the movie were shot in Malaysia, Dubai and Mumbai besides Kolkata. This is the most expensive movie made so far in [[Cinema of West Bengal|Tollywood]] with a budget of {{INR}}14 crores.<ref name="Budget">{{cite web|url=http://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/entertainment/regional/bengali/news-interviews/First-Look-Dev-in-Challenge-2/articleshow/15628711.cms |title=First Look: Dev in Challenge 2 |publisher=Articles.timesofindia.indiatimes.com |date=2012-08-24 |accessdate=2012-09-04}}</ref> ''Challenge 2'' is a remake of 2011 [[Telugu cinema|Telugu]] film ''[[Dookudu]]'', directed by [[Srinu Vaitla]] and starring [[Mahesh Babu]] and [[Samantha Ruth Prabhu|Samantha]]. ==Plot== IPS Officer Abhiraj Roy a.k.a Abhi ([[Dev (actor)|Dev]]) is a daring super-cop in [[Mumbai]]. He is on a mission to apprehend a mafia don, Guru Nayak ([[Ashish Vidyarthi]]), who is involved in [[illegal drug trade]], [[extortion]], and [[arms trafficking]]. His father, Debraj Roy ([[Tapas Paul]]), who was a [[politician]] driven by idealistic values and a sense of social service, met with a fatal accident. It is later revealed that Debraj actually survived the accident but ended up in a state of [[coma]]. However, this truth is hidden by their family from the people. Abhi maintains a low profile to catch Guru Nayak. In an undercover operation in [[Malaysia]], Abhi gets hold of Guru Nayak's brother Bunty (Surajit Sen). Later, it is revealed that one corrupt businessman ([[Dipankar Dey]]) was the mastermind behind Debraj's accident. Abhi falls in love with a girl Pooja ([[Pooja Bose]]), a fashion designer, who he meets in [[Malaysia]]. She is the daughter of Abhi's boss ([[Rajatava Dutta]]), a cop who reports to the police commissioner (Bharat Kaul) in [[Mumbai]] city. When Debraj comes out of the coma, doctors advise his family that he is at risk if he encounters or hears anything upsetting, disturbing, or shocking. Abhi hides the events surrounding Debraj's accident. He even hides his profession, as it was Debraj's dream to see his son as a [[politician]] revered by people. Abhi shifts his family to Debraj's previously abandoned [[mansion]], which is now being used for [[filmmaking]]. Abhi creates a dummy political set-up at this mansion. In the guise of a [[reality television]] program, Abhi tricks an aspiring but unsuccessful film actor Swarnakamal ([[Kharaj Mukherjee]]). Abhi keeps this drama under wraps from his father, by making him believe that Abhi is now an [[Member of the Legislative Assembly|M.L.A.]] revered by people fulfilling Debraj's wishes. He also marries his love Pooja, to make Debraj happy. The rest of the plot reveals the politician-criminal nexus behind Debraj's accident and Abhi's retaliation over the political corruptions of the villains. <ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.facebook.com/challenge.two.2 |title=Challenge 2 Official Page|publisher=Facebook |date=2012-05-11 |accessdate=2012-05-11}}</ref> ==Cast== * [[Dev (actor)|Dev]] as IPS Officer Abhiraj Roy a.k.a.
