Good news! Rajkumar Hirani begins work on '3 Idiots' sequel
What's the story
To make a film that can cater to a pan India audience is not something that every filmmaker can pull off. That is why Rajkumar Hirani is often called a magician. All his directorial ventures have been unanimously loved by the audience. But, '3 Idiots' certainly holds a special place in our hearts and Hirani will soon be bringing us a sequel.
Details
The sequel does not have a title as of now
The development was shared by trade analyst Ramesh Bala on Twitter. "Dir @RajkumarHirani has started working (initial stages) on a #3Idiots sequel," he wrote. The first question that strikes one's mind after reading this is whether the original cast of Aamir Khan, Sharman Joshi and R. Madhavan will be retained or not. However, that is yet to be finalized.
