Adivi Sesh first announced plans for a sequel to Goodachari on his birthday in December 2018, with initial plans for Rahul Pakala to direct.[6] The sequel was delayed by COVID-19 pandemic, and in April 2020, Sesh confirmed he was writing the script for Goodachari 2.[7] In June 2022, Sesh stated that script work is yet to be finished, and he confirmed that the sequel would be a continuation of the first part.[8]

The sequel, G2, was officially announced by Sesh on 29 December 2022,[9] with Vinay Kumar Sirigineedi now directing. The film is produced by TG Vishwa Prasad and Abhishek Agarwal.[10] In January 2023, Abhishek Agarwal Arts unveiled the first look of G2, confirming it as a Pan-Indian film. Adivi Sesh, who is also the screenwriter for the film, shared updates on the script's progress in April 2020. While filming was underway, Emraan Hashmi was announced as part of the cast in a main role in February 2024.[11]

The film is set to launch on an international scale, featuring a grand five-story glass set constructed for shooting in Hyderabad.[12] Filming is planned in India, the United Arab Emirates and Europe. Principal photography began in December 2023.[13]
