Demonte Colony 2: Arulnithi reveals plans to expand the horror-thriller franchise - ‘Script for parts 3 and 4 ready’

Ahead of the exciting release of the upcoming horror thriller Demonte Colony 2, lead actor Arulnithi made interesting revelations about the fan-favorite horror franchise. For the unversed, the upcoming sequel is a spiritual successor to the spine-chilling 2015 horror-thriller Demonte Colony. 

In a recent promotional interview, the actor revealed that when director R. Ajay Gnanamuthu first narrated the story of the sequel, he also shared the one-liner for the third and fourth parts of the film. Although Arulnithi was initially dubious, the director effectively detailed how the story would unfold, and planned to bring characters from both installments into the third and fourth parts of the horror franchise. 

 “Storylines for parts 3 and 4 of Demonte Colony are ready. However, the success of the sequel will decide whether these will be made,” the actor revealed. He also added that the sequel was initially supposed to be directed by Ajay’s associate, but the makers later decided it would be better for Ajay to direct it himself.
