Mumbai: S. Shankar had given Anil Kapoor one of his most acclaimed roles in 2001's 'Nayak'.

And now, the man is all set to return in the film's official sequel.

The film has officially been greenlit, with renowned screen-writer KV Vijayendra Prasad, father of SS Rajamouli, scripting the film.

Though the AR Rahman musical had been a box-office debacle, it later developed a massive cult upon TV viewership.

There could probably not have been a better news for Anil Kapoor and 'Nayak' fans!
