Munnabhai returns

The super-popular franchise has been awaiting its third instalment for eight years now.

With his home production Prassthanam biting the dust, Sanjay Dutt has made up his mind to return to what he does best — play Munna bhai.

The super-popular franchise has been awaiting its third instalment for eight years now. Raj Kumar Hirani and his writer Abhijat Joshi had, in fact, planned a third film named Munnabhai Chale Amrika, in which Dutt was to travel to the US to meet President Barack Obama. But after Obama was president no more, a hunt for another script began. Now, Dutt has let it be known to Hirani that he is keen to start Munnabhai 3 at the soonest.

Says a source in the know, “All of Dutt’s films since his return from prison have failed. As the biopic on his life has been a big success, it proves that Baba is very popular among the masses. He needs to do something he is best at, and that’s Munna Bhai.”
