But why has the filmmaker not made a sequel in these last 14 years? In an interview with DNA, Joshi revealed, “It will be fun if a sequel happens. Raju (Rajkumar Hirani) sir is aware of the love. And he doesn’t want to disappoint the audience. He has shared a few ideas with me about the sequel. But when you ask him about it after a few months, he reveals that the ideas are not working out.”

He added, “So he is keen to make it (the sequel). Whenever it will happen, we will enjoy working on it, and the audience will enjoy watching it.”
