In future, certainly yes.”
The filmmaker went on to mention that he shares a long-standing connection with Vidya Balan. “Look, Vidya had agreed to do a 3-day role in my film ‘Thank You.’ I remember calling her, and she taking no time to give her nod of consent. I don’t know why, but I can never forget that gracious gesture. It all started from there, and here I am today, ready to go on the set.”
Anees Bazmee directed the second installment of the movie. The first part was helmed by Priyadarshan and starred Akshay Kumar alongside Vidya. In the sequel, Kartik was featured opposite Tabu and Kiara Advani.
