Not long after the success of TSeries's Aashiqui 2, there were murmurings about Venus Records wanting to do a "thematic sequel" to their big romantic hit of 2000, the clunky but likable Dhadkan. The mutterings died away again, so I assumed they'd thought better of it, but it seems to be back:
indianexpress.com/article/entertainment/bollywood/vikram-bhatt-to-direct-sequel-to-akshay-kumar-shilpa-shettys-dhadkan/
No word on who's in it yet, but it's funny how the project went from "we are absolutely, positively using newcomers like A2 and definitely not established stars and really definitely not the stars of the original" in 2013 to "we have yet to make a decision on whether to hire newcomers or established stars" in 2014. My own guess is that either someone from the original has expressed an interest, or Vikram Bhatt is campaigning for cousin Emraan.
Anyway, not important, but I find it an interesting development in kind of the same way that I find Prem Ratan Dhan Payo an interesting development: nice to see the old school making a comeback.
