The success of the film Bachchan, directed by Shashank, has made way to a sequel, apparently. Director Shashank says, “The title Bachchan is so powerful and at the same time difficult to get again. So we would want to do a series of films with the same title.” There are also rumours that there have been offers for dubbing rights from four languages, (HIndi, Malayalam, Telugu and Tamil) for a couple of crores.
“These offers are only because of the title and Sudeep. We can’t miss this opportunity. Producer
Uday K Mehta and I discussed the matter with Sudeep and he has agreed,” says Shashank. Sudeep, who is currently busy with his reality show and other movies, says, “Yes I have agreed to be part of the
Bachchan sequel.” “I will complete my pending projects and start of with the sequel sometime next year,” he adds.
