- Mujhse Shaadi Karogi 2
The 2004 classic rom-com starring Salman Khan, Akshay Kumar and Priyanka Chopra made the audience instantly fall in love with the idea of love. The humorous banter, goofy tricks, twists and turns of fate, long lost friendship and of course, the love triangle kept the audience hooked throughout. This laugh riot, backed by Producer Sajid Nadiadwala is returning with the humour and madness of the original with a modern twist and a different cast. Reportedly, Kartik Aryan and Varun Dhawan are set to be the leading contenders for this sequel but the final casting is yet to be announced. We did hope that the sequel would bring back the original trio with their crazy love triangle. Nonetheless, fans are excited for Chapter 2 of MSK as it returns after more than a decade!
2. Don 3: The Chase Ends
Farhan Akhtar brings back the Don franchise with Don 3: The Final Chase starring Ranveer Singh, Kriti Sanon and Sharvari. What’s missing here is the OG Don himself and this casting has definitely divided fans but there is a curiosity about the direction this chapter of the crime saga will take. Shah Rukh Khan will be missed but fans might get a glimpse of him as he is rumored to have a special appearance. Will Don 3 be a Hit or a Flop without our beloved Khan?
3. Hera Pheri 3
After years of speculation and behind-the scenes drama, Hera Pheri is returning with the iconic trio, Akshay Kumar, Sunil Shetty and Paresh Rawal to cause a laugh riot. With over a decade since the last instalment in 2006, this cult classic is expected to blend nostalgia with a fresh storyline and their memorable one-liners. Scheduled for a theatrical release in 2026-27, will this iconic movie retain it’s charm?
4. Race 4
The highly anticipated sequel to the Race franchise has fans excited. What makes this special is Saif Ali Khan’s comeback to this franchise and after Race 3, we are more than relieved to see him in the fourth part. Race 4 is scheduled to begin filming in January 2025 and this action packed thriller will continue the narrative and characters from Race 1 and Race 2 returning to the familiar world of love, deceit and games.
5. Go Goa Gone 2
India’s cult zombie comedy is making a return with Go Goa Gone 2!
While 2013’s Zom-Com , Go Goa Gone featured Saif Ali Khan as the zombie hunter, he might not be a part of the second instalment. Kunal Kemmu has kept things under wraps for now but production is expected to start in October 2025. With its unique blend of stoner humor, horror, and satire, the film aims to bring something wild and different to the table again.
6. Krrish 4
Yes, we all love Hrithik Roshan but guys, in this sequel to India’s superhero franchise Krrish, we have a very special news, ”Jaadu” is back!. The sequel also marks the directorial debut of Hrithik Roshan while exploring the concept of time-travel. This crazy sci-fi action thriller is expected to battle new villains, introduce advance VFX and fans are super excited for the multiverse angle. The anticipation is sky high as the wait for this sequel has crossed a decade!
Final Words
We can fairly say that these sequels are more than just follow-ups , they are cultural moments in the making. Whether it’s comedy (Mujhse Shaadi Karogi 2, Hera Pheri 3) or Action (Race 4, Don 3) or Superhero Sci-fi Fantasy (Krrish4) or a Zom-Com (Go Goa Gone 2), Bollywood is set to deliver high stakes cinematic returns of the iconic films for which fans have waited for years.
