Munnabhai franchise will be shot in India and not in America, says Rajkumar Hirani!

In an exciting disclosure, Rajkumar Hirani tells that his third part of the successful Munnabhai franchise with Sanjay Dutt and Arshad Warsi will be based in India – and NOT America.

“I will start writing Munnabhai with a fresh mind, but only after I’m through with Sanju’s biopic which will consume a lot of time. And let me tell you, the third part of Munnabhai will be shot in India and not America which was the plan earlier. In fact, we also shot some portions for Munnabhai Chale Amrika trailer but that’s been scrapped now. Hopefully, by the time Sanju is out of prison, Munnabhai script will be ready.” revealed Rajkumar Hirani.

Explaining why he’s so charged up about the Sanjay Dutt biopic, he tells, “While we were shooting PK, Sanju’s arrest order was issued by the Supreme Court and that was his biggest setback. Before going to jail, we used to sit often and talk for hours where he told me a lot of things about his life. His life is so interesting and exciting. I thought the common man will love it. His life story – the ups and downs – makes for an intriguing subject matter.”
