The Mystery Behind 'No Entry 2' Delay Unraveled
One of the most anticipated sequels in Bollywood, *No Entry 2*, has been a topic of much discussion. Bazmee, who was actively working on the sequel last year with a cast including Varun Dhawan, Diljit Dosanjh, and Arjun Kapoor, explained the unfortunate turn of events that led to its delay.
"We worked very hard for the *No Entry* sequel. Uss film ke liye ek bahut khoobsurat kahani bhi likhi," Bazmee stated. He expressed his disappointment, citing unforeseen challenges:
• "However, it is unfortunate that it didn’t get made due to one actor or the other."
• "Last time, we were all set to begin the shoot. All preparations were done. But there was some problem at the eleventh hour."
• "I guess every film has its destiny."
Despite the setbacks, the director remains optimistic about the project, which is close to his heart and producer Boney Kapoor. "Whoever has heard its script has told me, ‘Yeh bahut khoobsurat picture hai. Banni chahiye’. Inshallah, we’ll soon make the film. I am sure people would love it," he added, reassuring fans that the sequel is still very much a possibility.
Future Plans and Filmmaking Philosophy
When asked if he would revisit *No Entry 2* after his current film with Akshay Kumar and Vidya Balan, Anees Bazmee enthusiastically replied, "Yes, I would love to make *No Entry 2* after this film." He further elaborated on his meticulous approach to filmmaking:
• He has a couple more films planned beyond his current project.
• The gap after his last film was primarily due to the extensive planning required for *No Entry 2*, which involved a huge star cast.
• Bazmee prefers to take his time between projects, starting to plan his next film only after his current one is released, allowing him to focus on casting and development at a comfortable pace.
This methodical approach underscores his dedication to crafting quality cinema, ensuring that each project receives the attention and care it deserves. Fans can look forward to more exciting announcements from Anees Bazmee in the near future.
