2009 movie ‘3 Idiots’ to have a sequel soon, says Bollywood superstar Aamir Khan
All is well! All is well!
After seven years of waiting, the fans of Rancho and the other characters in the Bollywood movie “3 Idiots” will be able to see their beloved cast on the big screen soon; after Bollywood superstar Aamir Khan confirms that a sequel of the 2009 film is coming.
In an article written by Bernama of Malay Mail Online, it was disclosed that lead character Khan (who played Rancho), together with director Rajkumar Hirani, is planning to revisit the “3 Idiots” story for a sequel.
“Raju Hirani has given me a hint about 3 Idiots sequel and I am giving you all a hint. The film will happen if and whenever he will write the script. Let’s keep our fingers crossed,” said Khan, who starred in the film with R. Madhavan and Sharman Joshi and Kareena Kapoor as his love interest.
In the movie, two friends are searching for their long lost companion, Rancho. They revisit their college days and recall the memories of their friend who inspired them to think differently; even as the rest of the world called them “idiots.”
Upon the release of “3 Idiots,” which was loosely adapted from the novel “Five Point Someone” by Chetan Bhagat, it became the highest-grossing film in its opening weekend in India and had the highest opening day collections for an Indian film up until that point. It also held the record for the highest net collections in the first week for a Bollywood film.
Director Hirani said the sequel is something that he really wants to do.
“Six months back, I thought of an idea which would be great for the sequel. Abhijat (Joshi) and I worked on it for a few days and then spoke to Aamir about it. He got really excited but nothing much has happened. It’s a long way. But this is one film that I really want to do,” he said.
