'Munnabhai 3' Script Ready, Superb Story: Arshad Warsi

  • 'Munnabhai 3' Script Ready, Superb Story: Arshad Warsi
Bollywood actor Arshad Warsi, who will reprise the much-loved character of "Circuit" in the third film in the "Munnabhai" franchise, said the script for the third instalment is ready.
 
"Rajkumar Hirani spoke to me. He gave an idea about the story and it is just superb. The story is very much relevant in today's time. The script is ready," he said during a press conference for his upcoming film "Irada" on Tuesday.
 
Asked about the shooting schedule of the film, he said: "As soon as the biopic (Sanjay Dutt's) is done, we will start shooting it in 2018."
 
Talking about the film, the 48-year-old actor said, "You will soon see the same innocent idiots coming up with a social issue once again. They will make you see the world we want to see. The film will be very sweet and lovely."
 
The actor who is known for his cheerful appearance expressed, "Sense of humour is the best thing in the world. We've a lot of issues in life so I feel we should smile more often."
 
Arshad is currently awaiting the release of "Irada". Directed by Aparnaa Singh and featuring Naseeruddin Shah and Divya Dutta, the film will hit the screens on February 17.
 
 
RAJKUMAR HIRANI: MUNNA BHAI CHALE AMERICA WILL BE LAST OF THE SERIES
 
 
Rajkumar Hirani is busy with the shoot of Sanjay Dutt’s biopic, starring Ranbir Kapoor. However, amid the busy schedule, Rajkumar has a major revelation to make about his blockbuster Munna Bhai series.
 
In an interview to media, the director said the third part of the successful series will happen. But he broke our hearts when he said, “I’m going to make just one more.” This means after Munna Bhai Chale America, we would not meet our favourite Munna Bhai aka Sanjay Dutt and Circuit aka Arshad Warsi, ever.
 
The daily reports that since the release of Lage Raho Munna Bhai in 2006, he has five half-written Munna Bhai scripts lying with him.
 
“I could’ve taken any of them and released another film, knowing people would watch it. But I don’t want to make a Munna Bhai which is not as good, if not better, than the previous two. I’m going to make just one more after which someone else can take the franchise forward and it has to be equally good,” he asserts.
 
A third of the Munna Bhai series, the film was titled Munna Bhai Chale America.
 
The title was announced by the director himself in 2010 but film was shelved because of Sanjay’s arrest in 2013. Now, the PK director has revealed that Abhijat Joshi, the writer, has already started work on the film’s script. And hopefully, right after the wrap of Sanjay Dutt’s biopic, Hirani would start working on Munna Bhai 3.
