Thimmakka who can make or break (in Judiciary and Politics) faces severe jolt when her son is gunned down by Agni and Vijay for rape and murder of call center girl. To bring in bad name to police power Thimmakka unite the two underworld dons on a promise that they get prime positions. Agni does not lose his courage even though his colleagues in the department turn in favor of Thimmakka. He has the support of sincere chief minister (played by Saikumar's father). In his killing spree of anti social elements that is also reply to Thimmakka, Agni becomes a nightmare. At this time the political moves changes the seat of power.

Production

Police Story 2 is a sequel to 1996 film of same name. The film retained most of its actors and technicians from the original version. Saikumar said "When we decided to make a sequel, we wondered from where to begin. So we decided to extend the story to Rayalaseema."[3]

Critical reception

Nowrunning wrote "Police Story Part II' looks every inch like the original in its narration, content, technical details and even the way the characters speak their dialogues. It is utterly crude with no space for sensibility and sensitivity."[4] Sify wrote "This is a power packed action extravaganza. A sequel to 'Police Story' released 10 years ago this film is updated in technology and is stylishly made. Thriller Manju has done a mind blowing job with eight action scenes and non stop punching dialogues from dialogue king Saikumar in the role of Agni is the redeeming feature of this film. This is a feast for the action lovers and those who love dialogue oriented films."[5]
