Even though sequels are hugely popular in Hollywood, they have never gained that much popularity in Bollywood. Many sequels have failed miserably, thus restricting filmmakers to try out the sequels of popular films.However, times are changing in Bollywood and recent sequels have gained huge popularity and have been box office hits too.
Munnabhai M.B.BS.is one such film which has changed the notion of sequels in Bollywood. The first part was extremely popular and the second film, too, was a huge box office success.
Same can be said of Dhoom. The first film literally changed the career graph of three star-Abhishek Bacchan,John Abraham and Uday Chopra.It’s sequel Dhoom 2 made the people crazy with superb locations, never seen before action stunts and its overall slick look.
People will get to see their favourite stars once more and will also have the opportunity to find out what happened after the first movie was over as sequels are making a comeback next year. One sequel that is eagerly awaited is Abbas Mastan’s Race 2.
The original Race explored dark themes of jealousy, sibling rivalry, lust for wealth and even partner swapping to a certain extent. It was one of the highest grosser at the box office and earned critical acclaim too. It is believed that in Race 2, the original starcast will be retained except Bipasha Basu, who will be replaced by another actress. This, however, is not confirmed.
Dhoom 3 is also expected to release in 2011.It is rumoured that Aditya Chopra himself will direct this film and there will be some alterations in the star cast too.
Partner 2 also is expected to release this year. All the stars from the original movie will come together once again to make the audience laugh.
Farhan Akhtar’s Don 2 is slated to be released in the later part of 2011.This movie itself was a remake of the 178 Don. It has been speculated that all the original stars of Farhan Akhtar’s Don including Shahrukh Khan, Priyanka Chopra, Om Puri will be there in the film.
