Same Babli, new Bunty
Saif Ali Khan is the newest addition to the Bunty Aur Babli sequel that is said to roll soon. Saif had previously opted out of the film due to date clashes, but now he is back in. Meanwhile, Rani Mukerji will still reprise the role that she played in the original Yash Raj Films project.
“Apart from Saif and Rani, Siddhant Chaturvedi and Sharvari Wagh have been roped in for the film. The film will actually continue from where the earlier one ended. R Madhavan was also approached to play the role that Abhishek Bachchan played in the original, but it doesn’t seem that the dates worked out. Saif is now in the project, getting the Hum Tum team back together. Saif had won the National Award for Best Actor when he was paired with Rani in Hum Tum,” says a source.
While Bunty Aur Babli was directed by Shaad Ali, the sequel is being helmed by Varun B Sharma.
