Sonali Bendre and Aamir Khan’s photos left fans nostalgic. One netizen commented, “Time travel,” while another one wrote, “Wow, all-time favourites.” A third comment read, “Sarfarosh 2 locked?”
For the unversed, Aamir Khan and Sonali Bendre shared screen space in the 1999 film Sarfarosh, which also starred Naseeruddin Shah, Mukesh Rishi, Pradeep Rawat, Akhilendra Mishra, Makrand Deshpande, and others. Last year, Aamir Khan confirmed that a sequel to his acclaimed 1999 film is in development. He revealed that work on Sarfarosh 2 has begun.
Speaking at Bollywood Hungama Style Icons Summit, Aamir Khan confirmed Sarfarosh 2 is in the making and also talked about sequels. “Once you make a great film, you don’t want to mess with them. Aap uska sequel tab karenge jab aapko aisa lage ki deserve to be. Vo feeling that you would like to do for any of the film. Like Andaaz Apna Apna, Sarfarosh. Sarfarosh 2 pe abhi kaam chal raha hai. Unless the script comes out really well, it is really unfair to go ahead,” he said.
Meanwhile, Happy Patel: Khatarnak Jasoos is directed by Vir Das and Kavi Shastri. It is written by Vir and Amogh Ranadive. The film is bankrolled by Aamir Khan Productions. The film starring Vir Das, Mona Singh, Sharib Hashmi, Srushti Tawade, and Mithila Palkar, released in theatres today, on January 16.
