Dangal sequel in the pipeline?

Dangal co-stars Fatima Sana Shaikh and Aparshakti Khurana, who played cousins in the film, have been hanging out for a while now. And as we hear about their fourth outing within a fortnight, we’re told that an encore of their performances may be in the works.

“The makers of Dangal are considering making a sequel to the film, because it is a story that can be told again, and because it’s based on real people who are still living their lives. A sequel is being made to the MS Dhoni biopic as well because the first part ended with India winning the 2011 world cup, but his career has proceeded beyond that. Similarly, there could also be a sequel to Sanju. So, there is nothing wrong with the makers wanting to trace Geeta Phogat’s career beyond Dangal,” says a trade source.
