'Happy Bhaag Jayegi' likely to have a sequel

The makers of Abhay Deol and Diana Penty-starrer “Happy Bhaag Jayegi” are mulling a sequel of the film.

“We do plan to make a sequel of ‘Happy Bhaag Jayegi’.  The discussions are on how to take the story foward. Anand sir (producer Anand L Rai), too, thinks a sequel can be made...he has given a positive feedback to this idea,” director Mudassar Aziz told PTI.

However, Aziz said as of now he doesn’t have any concrete story idea for the second part of the romantic comedy. “Till the time we are convinced about the story, we will not make the film,” he said.

Besides Deol and Diana, the film also featured Jimmy Shergill, Ali Fazal and Momal Sheikh in the lead roles.

According to Aziz, it’s too early to throw light on the casting of the sequel.

Released on August 18, the film has garnered Rs 22.11 crore at the box office in India and Aziz is overwhelmed with the audience’s response.

“It just makes me a lot happier,” he adds.
