Is 'Rehnaa Hai Terre Dil...' sequel happening? R Madhavan reveals
What's the story
Actor R. Madhavan recently addressed the increasing demand for a sequel to Rehnaa Hai Terre Dil Mein.
Speaking to Mid-Day, he said, "I haven't found anything concrete to either do Rehnaa Hai Terre Dil Mein 2 or Tanu Weds Manu 3. It's all speculation."
"The only sequel I've done is Tanu Weds Manu Returns because the script was justifiable. I haven't had the luxury of doing a franchise film where I'm able to repeat the same characters because they worked."
Fan anticipation

Career choices
Madhavan's approach to film selection
Madhavan, known for his selective approach toward acting, has long stressed the importance of choosing meaningful roles over the quantity of work.
"Early on in my career, when I heard people say that if it is an Aamir [Khan] film, the content is bound to be good — that's something I was dying to have people say about my work," he told the portal.
