The film is described as in writing with production eyed for early next year.

Overview

  • The sequel, reported Friday by trade outlets citing Variety India, is said to be in development as an anthology about three linked couples.
  • Sources later told Pinkvilla, as cited by Times Now, Free Press Journal and News18, that Akshay Kumar has not been approached and that casting claims are baseless.
  • No official announcement has been issued, so all details remain provisional and subject to change.
  • Reports point to a Shankar–Ehsaan–Loy reunion on the soundtrack, with writing underway and production targeted for early next year.
  • The 2007 original was a multi‑story romance with a star ensemble, and its cult following and popular songs help explain interest in a new chapter.
