Munnabhai and Circuit back again!

Drastic revision seems to have struck the making of this sequel, with the movie being renamed.

Post the record success of 2009's Christmas blockbuster 3 Idiots, there had been much speculation in B-town over the probability of Aamir Khan and Sharman Joshi replacing Sanjay Dutt and Arshad Warsi respectively, in the next movie of the Munnabhai series.

However, to the relief of ardent fans of the original actors who breathed life into the characters of Munna and Circuit, latest news feed has it that director Rajkumar Hirani along with producer Vidhu Vinod Chopra have retained their former duo of Dutt and Warsi.

This ambitious project in reference had initially been titled Munnabhai Chale Amrika; even a promo had been aired to credit of the same. Drastic revision however seems to have struck the making of this sequel, with the movie being renamed as Munnabhai Ki Aatma Katha, and with the old storyline dismissed, a brand new script to effect is currently under works. The project is tentatively scheduled to go on floors some time in 2012. 
 
With a history of success as phenomenal as the Munnabhai series has seen commercially and in critical acclaim, it should not surprise fans to learn that Chopra was even approached by contacts in Hollywood to consider the sale of rights for this popular franchise; an offer that Chopra easily declined.

Now with work for the next sequel going full steam, be ready to have your funny bone tickled once again!

    as much as i love aamir and sharman i wouldn't want them to play munna and circuit... those can only be sunjay dutt and arshad... i can't wait to see the third munnabhai to be made and released... and i also wouldn't mind raju hirani to make another movie with aamir and sharman... :)
