For The Love Of Legendary Zeher Wali Kheer! 21 Reasons Why We Deserve A Sequel Of Sooryavansham
There are good films; there are bad films; there are awesome, exciting and overwhelming films. And THEN there is Sooryavansham. From Heera Thakur's aadarsh to Kevda Thakur¡¯s one-liners, from Kore Kore Sapne to Zeher Wali Kheer, we all need a little bit of Sooryavansham in our lives. As the movie completes 21 years, here are 21 reasons why we all deserve a Sooryavasham sequel.
There are good films; there are bad films; awesome, exciting and overwhelming films and THEN there is Sooryavansham.
Some people call this movie a flop, but to be honest, it is an insult to the epitome of a cult classic ever made. Sooryavansham is the true definition of a sleeper hit. Over the years, the love for this movie has only grown, all thanks to Set Max.
Set Max acted like my mother who used to tell me, ¡°spend time with your cousin, I¡¯m sure you¡¯ll like her¡± when I was a kid. After watching Sooryavansham, I realised she was right. No matter how many jokes and memes I laugh at, the film remains to be one of my greatest guilty pleasures of all time.
So much so, that when Rohit Shetty¡¯s Sooryavanshi was announced, I thought it¡¯s a sequel to the Amitabh Bachchan starrer. My heart skipped a beat, and then a wave of disappointment and dissatisfaction took over.
As the movie completes 21 years, here are 21 reasons why we all deserve a Sooryavasham sequel.
#1 Just saying the word Sooryavansham can bring a smile on anyone¡¯s face!
You smiled, right? Probably giggled too!

#2 Not just a sequel, it should be a franchise!
There is no end to its ever-growing fandom, after all!

#3 Avengers might come and go, Heera Thakur is the real hero!
And he will stay in our hearts, or at least on Set Max, forever. Heera Thakur, we love you 3000!

#4 The creamy-flavoured delicious yet underrated Kheer only achieved a cult status because of Sooryavansham, and now, it's time for Chhena Murki to get it's due!
Zeher wali Chhena Murki kis-kisko khaani hai? Other underrated Indian desserts deserve to have their moments too.

#5 Can¡¯t wait to see Amitabh Bachchan in a triple role as father, son and grandson!
Maybe this will keep him busy and that he will not go bonkers on Twitter. Maybe!

#6 Kevda Thakur¡¯s one-liners need to make a comeback ASAP!
Remember ¡°connection de kar fuse nikaalna¡±, and ¡°aag lagi bhi nahi aur dhuan uth gaya¡±?

#7 We need more of those life-changing dialogues in our lives.
¡°Main pita ji ki nazron mein vaise hi gira hua hun, thoda aur gir jaunga¡±
¡°Aapke Tiraskar ko ashirwad samjh ke jaa raha hun¡±

#8 The sequel should be directly released on Set Max!
The channel deserves it!
Indiatimes
#9 This time, we want to see the most dramatic blood vomit in 3D!

#10 Not Masakali 2.0, we need a remix of Kore Kore Sapne.
Or maybe a new family reunion song!

#11 IPL might come and go (and also get postponed because of lockdown), Sooryavansham stays forever!
Set Max has become Sony Max, but Sooryavansham is still the constant.
Get ready for your dose of superhit drama. Watch Amitabh Bachchan in ¡®Sooryavansham¡¯, aaj raat 8 baje, sirf Sony MAX par.@SrBachchan #SooryavanshamOnSonyMAX #StayInStayWithSonyMAX pic.twitter.com/DdMwZeEmRE

#12 Maybe Set Max will stop telecasting Sooryavansham, when there¡¯s a sequel.
Sequel is the solution to all problems!
Twitter
#13 If Rohit Shetty can have a cop-universe, Sooryavansham surely deserves a cinematic universe of its own.
primevideo
#14 It¡¯s probably the only film where two singers sang one song for one hero. That¡¯s how big the movie was.
Bachchan and Sonu Nigam sang for one character in the same song Chori Chori Chori Se.
#15 Before the era of binge-watching, Sooryavansham used to be the only movie on your weekend watch-list.
We need a sequel because we're missing the good-old days!
primevideo
#16 If Grand Masti, Raaz and Hate Story can have a sequel, why can¡¯t Sooryavansham?
Hai koi Jawaab?
primevideo
#17 You might not need a Sooryavansham sequel, but the sequel needs you for sure.
Is there any other movie that you have watched more than once, even when you didn¡¯t want to?
primevideo
#18 Thakur Bhanupratap knew hospitals are the priority!
Do you see the movie is so relevant even now? Part two isn¡¯t a bad idea, after all.
Sooryavansham
#19 Okay, if you guys still don¡¯t agree on the idea of a sequel, maybe a remake would be perfect!
We want Shah Rukh Khan in the role of the Professor from Money Heist, but who do you want to see in the role of Heera Thakur?
primevideo
#20 We need a sequel for cheap thrills!
"You're asking for it, you're dying for it!"
primevideo
#21 Sooryavansham is an apt example of ¡®the more is less¡¯ paradox!
Just can¡¯t get enough of it.
primevideo
It¡¯s time to celebrate the magnifying glory of Sooryavansham and re-watch it for the 7469876589th time. Thodi-thodi Zeher wali Kheer bhi kha lena! Not.
