Bhagam Bhag's Sequel to go on Floors

India, Nov 24: Good news for all Bollywood enthusiasts! The blockbuster comedy film Bhagam Bhag starring Akshay Kumar, Paresh Rawal and Govinda is coming back with a sequel after 18 years. Bhagam Bhag is considered one of ace director Priyadarshan’s most loved films. 

The rights for the sequel were recently acquired from Shemaroo Entertainment by Sarita Ashwin Varde of Roaring River Productions who has simultaneously also been working on the film’s script. She will be producing the film along with Shemaroo.

On being asked why it took so long for the sequel, Sarita said, "Why did it take so long for the sequel? Because a special film like Bhagam Bhag deserves a sequel that’s just as much special; when the time was right, we decided to take the plunge."

“We are excited to partner with an incredible team to create a film that will continue the legacy of its predecessor by bringing more laughter, fun and entertainment,” says Hiren Gada, CEO, Shemaroo Entertainment.

Currently, in the final stages of writing, Bhagam Bhag 2 is slated to go on floors in mid-2025. Right now, all that the makers promise is that the sequel will be “madder, crazier and funnier.” All other details will be revealed soon when the film is officially announced.
