Not many films manage to achieve the cult status that Karan Johar’s Kabhi Khushi Kabhie Gham has. From its sweeping take on love and family to Shah Rukh Khan and Kajol’s era-defining romance, Kareena Kapoor Khan’s Poo, who went on to become a pop-culture phenomenon, and Hrithik Roshan’s perfect blend of tradition and modernity, the film left an impact that extended far beyond the screen.
Now, we are getting to know that there might be a sequel to K3G! Yes, you read that right. As per reports, Karan Johar is returning to the director’s chair with a grand-scale family drama that is said to echo the emotional universe of his 2001 film. As per a source quoted by Pinkvilla, “After hitting the bullseye with a romantic family comedy in the form of Rocky Aur Rani Kii Prem Kahaani, Karan is returning to the family drama space with his next. Buzz is, it would be his biggest scale film till date, and Karan has brought in the New Year by locking the script of his next.”
The source continued, “It’s a high-octane family drama with, of course, a strong romantic and emotional core. The film will be spearheaded by two male leads and two female leads, and the casting process is expected to kickstart soon. This will be the big-ticket marque from Dharma Productions scheduled for the theatrical medium. However, it’s surely in the space of the 2001 blockbuster led by Shah Rukh Khan, Kajol, Hritik Roshan, Kareena Kapoor, Amitabh Bachchan and Jaya Bachchan.”
While there has been no official announcement yet, these reports were enough to get fans hyped up. Some urged the filmmaker to bring back the same K3G cast, while others had suggestions such as Varun Dhawan and Shraddha Kapoor, Sidharth Malhotra and Kiara Advani and more. However, a lot of netizens were not happy with the report and thought a cult-classic like K3G doesn’t require a sequel. A comment read, “NOOOOO PLEASE DON’T”, while another added, “i wish it is not real.”
Karan Johar is yet to comment on the development.
