Raj Kumar Santoshi plans a sequel to Andaz Apna Apna (AAA), but strictly by public demand. He maintains, “I don’t believe in creating a franchise by doing sequels or building my own brand. But the demand for a sequel to AAA is unbelievable. If I don’t do it, someone else will. That, I won’t allow. I’ve ideas for two sequels. One of them is about Amar and Prem married and their life thereafter.”

However, it is unlikely that the sequel to AAA would bring Aamir and Salman together again. The director explains why. “Firstly, the economic logistics of bringing Aamir and Salman together in the same film are mind-boggling. Secondly, their working methods are very different, even though they’re such good friends in real life.”

Understandably, Santoshi wants to make AAA2 with younger actors. “The world has moved on in 20 years. I see a lot of filmmakers and actors doing an Andaz Apna Apna. I would like to see where the characters have gone after so long.”
