In an exciting development for Bollywood fans, Shah Rukh Khan is reportedly in discussions to reprise his iconic role in a sequel to Baazigar, the 1993 romantic thriller that catapulted him to stardom. Producer Ratan Jain, who helmed the original film, recently hinted in an interview with ETimes that preliminary talks with Shah Rukh Khan are underway, sparking widespread anticipation.
While the project remains in its early stages, Jain emphasized his commitment to proceeding only if Khan agrees to headline the film. He noted that there is an “intriguing concept” in place but stressed the need for a compelling script and fresh direction that can match the high standards set by the original. “We keep talking to Shah Rukh about Baazigar 2, but not much has happened, but it will definitely be made,” Jain remarked, leaving audiences eager for further updates.
Celebrating 31 years since its release on November 12, 1993, Baazigar remains a landmark in Bollywood for its suspenseful storyline and stellar performances, featuring Shah Rukh Khan alongside Kajol, Shilpa Shetty, and other acclaimed actors. Directed by Abbas-Mustan, the film is remembered for its unique plot twists, engaging music, and the unforgettable chemistry between Khan and Kajol.
As fans await official announcements, the possibility of a Baazigar sequel promises a thrilling revival of a Bollywood classic, and all eyes are on Shah Rukh Khan to bring this iconic character back to life.
