Overview
- Khan, in an interview published Tuesday by Amar Ujala and echoed by major outlets, said Rajkumar Hirani is developing a sequel that revisits the original characters a decade later.
- He praised the concept as a beautiful, unusual story with the same humor as the 2009 hit, while noting the screenplay still needs work.
- Khan said he plans to return as Phunsukh Wangdu, the inventor identity his character revealed at the end of the first film.
- He added that Hirani’s planned Dadasaheb Phalke biopic has been put on hold after multiple drafts did not meet the director’s standards.
- Industry reports expect other original leads to return, though only Khan’s intent is confirmed so far, and the film’s legacy heightens interest as formal casting and a production timeline await.
