Although filmmaker Kabir Khan, who helmed the Salman Khan-starrer, revealed that the script is not yet ready, nor has the idea been formed, fans are excited about the film.

When ETimes contacted the writer of Bajrangi Bhaijaan, K. V. Vijayendra Prasad, and probed if he was writing the sequel, he did not wish to give out any information. “I am not at liberty to say anything on Bajrangi Bhaijaan, everything about it will only come from Salman Bhai,” he said.

The story of ‘Bajrangi Bhaijaan’ was written by S. S. Rajamouli’s father, K. V. Vijayendra Prasad. The film was directed by Kabir Khan and also starred Kareena Kapoor Khan and Nawazuddin Siddiqui in pivotal roles. It marked the Bollywood debut of child actor Harshaali Malhotra who played the role of innocent Munni. The film released in theatres on 17 July 2015.
