Sanjay Dutt and Arshad Warsi reunite for hospital ad shoot, putting Munna Bhai 3 speculation to rest

New Delhi: Fans have long hoped for a third installment in the Munna Bhai franchise, and every time stars Sanjay Dutt and Arshad Warsi are seen together, it fuels rumours that something is on the way. When Dutt and Warsi were seen lately dressed as their characters Munna and Circuit, social media was abuzz with the news that Munna Bhai 3 is finally coming after 17 years. The appearance of director Rajkummar Hirrani on the set, which seemed to be a hospital, fueled conjecture even more.

Sanjay Dutt – Arshad Warsi together

However, the group had gathered together for an ad shoot, not their much-anticipated sequel. “There is no film in the works.” “They shot for a hospital commercial, and the behind-the-scenes video was released online, which sparked the rumours,” reveals a source. Having said that, many industry insiders believe that Munna Bhai 3 will never be made. Another insider elaborates, saying, “There are very few chances of the third film happening now because of the fallout between Rajkummar Hirani and (producer) Vidhu Vinod Chopra.” They split up some years ago in the aftermath of Hirani’s #MeToo claims. In truth, there was a film with the working title Munna Bhai Chale America that was quickly shelved for no apparent reason. The screenplay had been completed, and pre-production had begun, but it could not take place.”

According to insiders, the studios became engaged in the situation following the charges and lent their assistance. According to a Star World insider, “it was decided that Fox Studios would pull the plug on Munna Bhai 3 if Hirani was found guilty.” ‘The studio stands in support of the survivor.’
On the work front, Sanjay Dutt was last seen in Jawan in a cameo role. The Khalnayak actor was seen essaying the part of a cop who is assigned with the mission of interrogating Shah Rukh Khan’s character.
