Furthermore, talking about Queen 2 and the delays the film has been through, he said, "Na shohrat, na paisa, bas pyaar mein hi chal raha hai mera (laughs).

It wasn¡¯t an easy task, so we waited."
Earlier, Bahl had told Bollywood Life, "Every day I wake up with a thought of making Queen 2, and hopelessly, I will definitely announce it someday''.
