Farah Khan marked her foray into direction with the star-studded Main Hoon Na that featured an ensemble cast from Shah Rukh Khan, Sushmita Sen, Zayed Khan, Amrita Rao, Kirron Kher, Boman Irani, Naseeruddin Shah, Suniel Shetty, among others. The film, which went on to become one of the biggest blockbusters, is all set to get a sequel, according to current reports. While fans of the film will definitely be excited to watch this reunion on screen, we hear that it is already on the cards.
As per a Pinkvilla report, a source was quoted telling how the film is special for Farah Khan and Shah Rukh Khan, who was also the co-producer of the film with wife Gauri Khan under the banner Red Chillies Entertainment. The source said, “Main Hoon Na is the first film produced by Shah Rukh Khan and Gauri Khan under their banner, Red Chillies Entertainment, and the film is very close to their heart. Farah has cracked an idea for Main Hoon Na 2, and Shah Rukh has loved the route she plans to take for the sequel. Farah is presently working to crack the screenplay with her team of writers, as also the ones working with Red Chillies”.
The source also insisted that the superstar has insisted that the sequel should have a larger impact than the first instalment and has asked the choreographer-filmmaker to leave no stone unturned. “SRK is clear to not make a sequel just for the sake of it and is well aware of the fan following that Main Hoon Na has among the cinema-going audience. He has asked Farah and his in-house team of writers to honestly work on the screenplay and come up with something that surpasses the impact of first part. He is expected to hear the first draft by mid-2025 and then take a call on the same. The script is presently in the development stage,” added the source.
Speaking of the past collaborations between Shah Rukh Khan and Farah Khan as the filmmaker, the duo have joined hands for films like Main Hoon Na, Om Shanti Om, and Happy New Year. Meanwhile, on the work front, the superstar is expected to return to the silver screen with King which will also star Suhana Khan, Abhay Verma, and Abhishek Bachchan. Written by Sujoy Ghosh and directed by Siddharth Anand, the film is expected to be a gangster drama.
