After the success of HIT: The First Case, Nani announced a sequel in February 2021, one year after the film's release.[2] Sailesh Kolanu who directed the first film of the franchise would be directing this. Adivi Sesh has replaced Vishwak Sen in the sequel.[3] Nani wanted the franchise to be "concept oriented" rather than "star oriented," so he moved the setting from Telangana to Andhra Pradesh and chose Sesh as the protagonist.[4] Meenakshi Chaudhary was cast opposite Sesh.[5] Sen said he missed out on the sequel due to scheduling conflicts, and wished he'd be part of HIT 3 or 4.[6] The film was then formally launched in March 2021 with a pooja ceremony.[7] Principal photography commenced in August 2021 in Visakhapatnam.[8] In December 2021, Nani confirmed that 90% of the shoot is completed with filming also taking place in Hyderabad.[4] In July 2022, it was announced that the final schedule would commence in August 2022.[9]
The music of the film is composed by M. M. Srilekha and Suresh Bobbili. The film score is composed by John Stewart Eduri.
