Kahaani Sequel in the Making
We have recently been wowed by Vidya Balan in 'Kahaani' and the latest reports are that this film is getting a sequel! Find out more here.

Kahaani Sequel in the Making

Dabangg 2, Housefull 2, Dhoom3, and Shaadi Ke Side Effects are just some of the sequels coming out of Bollywood. While the lack of original ideas may be one of the reasons for this trend, filmmakers are managing to build brands and franchises around the films and characters. Seeing the trend and the positive response from this is director Sujoy Ghosh, who is exploring the option of creating a sequel for Kahaani.

The Vidya Balan starrer hit screens in March of this year. The film was a success because of its unique story and cast. Currently, Sujoy is amidst remake conversations. That's right; Kahaani will be remade for Tamil, Telegu, and English speaking audiences. While the remakes are exciting, Viacom wants to capitalize on the popularity and make sure the sequel is addressed.

A source reveals, "Only after Viacom and Gadha (co-producer) were convinced that the sequel would in no way be affected by the remakes did the process of selling remake rights go forward. Viacom was very clear on the issue. The sequel should not and must not be affected by the remakes." Added comments included, "Since Sujoy is completely committed to Kahaani 2 and involved in writing it, his chance of participating in any of the Kahaani remakes is very slim."

Another source said, "Sujoy, who is close to Aditya Chopra and Yashraj Films, has been asked to be closely associated with the English-language version of Kahaani. But with Sujoy completely committed to Kahaani 2 and consumed in writing it, his chances of participating in any of the Kahaani remakes is very slim. Viacom 18 are very clear on the issue. They want the sequel to not get affected by the remakes. Sujoy is busy writing the sequel and has cracked an idea."

Speculations include that Vidya will be back for the sequel and her character will be hurdles into a whole new location. Vikram Malhotra of Viacom 18 simply states, "We are going ahead with the sequel to Kahaani. That's all I can reveal at the moment."

Kahaani 2 is still in its early phases as Sujoy is still penning the script. Details are yet to come, but the excitement and buzz is already building! Are you excited about a Kahaani sequel?
