Bollywood is currently witnessing a wave of sequels, with filmmakers reviving some of the industry’s most beloved franchises. As audiences continue to welcome nostalgia and familiar storytelling, three major projects are now in development—Kahaani 3, Queen 2, and Mujhse Shaadi Karogi 2.
Kahaani 3: Vidya Balan Returns with Sujoy Ghosh
Director Sujoy Ghosh has begun writing the script for Kahaani 3, which will see Vidya Balan reprise her iconic role. A source close to the development revealed that while Vidya is already on board with the concept, she is waiting for Sujoy to complete the full screenplay. The film aims to maintain the gripping intensity and suspenseful narrative that made the first two installments cult favourites.
Queen 2: Kangana May Return, but Title Could Change
Meanwhile, director Vikas Bahl is set to bring back Kangana Ranaut for a sequel to the 2013 blockbuster Queen. However, the original production house no longer exists, leading to legal complications regarding title rights. As a result, while the same cast will return, the film might release under a different title. Still, fans can expect another empowering and quirky adventure with Rani at the centre.
Mujhse Shaadi Karogi 2: A Fresh Cast for the Comedy Sequel
Producer Sajid Nadiadwala is reportedly working on a second installment of the 2004 hit comedy Mujhse Shaadi Karogi, originally starring Salman Khan, Akshay Kumar, and Priyanka Chopra. This time around, the plan is to introduce a younger, fresher cast to bring new energy to the comic chaos. The film is still in the scripting stage, and its progress depends on the final quality of the script. If it meets expectations, casting will begin soon; otherwise, the project may be shelved temporarily.
With other sequels like Kesari: Chapter 2 and Raid 2 also generating buzz, it’s clear that franchise fever is alive and well in Bollywood—and audiences are more than ready to revisit their favourite cinematic worlds.
