After Shah Rukh Khan recently revealed that he was the?first choice for both?Munna Bhai MBBS?and?3 Idiots, ace filmmaker Rajkumar Hirani has spilled the beans on?satirical comedy drama about Bombay's local gangster and his loyal henchman Sarkeshwar "Circuit" Sharma.?
The filmmaker who is basking in the success of his recent release Dunki has hinted that the movie will happen soon.?
Hirani said that while many scripts are ready, he is only worried if the success of previous two films will be justified in the third instalment. "Munna Bhai ke sath humesha mera struggle yahi raha hai ki pichli do films itni achi ban gayi hai ki mere paas 5 aadhi likhi scripts abhi tak padi hui hai¡ (The struggle with this film is that the first two films were blockbuster hits, and I have five half-written scripts. I feel that if I don¡¯t reach the level of those two films, I won¡¯t be able to make the third one. I have one story that can be made, but some stories get outdated, so only time will tell," he said.
"Meri aksar baat hoti rehti hai Sanju (Sanjay Dutt) se. Woh kehta hai ki ek banani chahiye. Abhi ye Dunki khatam hui hai toh ab main kholunga pitara purani kahaniyo ka. Mann toh hai ki ek Munna Bhai aur banani hai, par kab woh mujhe abhi nahin pata. (Sanju and I often discuss about Munna Bhai 3. He also tells me to make it. Shah Rukh Khan¡®s Dunki just got finished. Now, I will go through the collection of the old stories that I have. I really want to make Munna Bhai 3, but I don¡¯t know when)," he told ANI.?
For the unversed, Rajkumar Hirani made his directorial debut with Munna Bhai MBBS in 2003 and gave Bollywood its most lovable goons. The film gave Dutt, Arshad Warsi and even? Boman Irani's career a big boost. From Mamu to Jaadu ki Jappi, twenty years later the movie remains etched in our hearts.
