‘Welcome’ directed by Aneez Bazmee gained a lot of fandom and now there are reports that for the third instalment Sanjay Dutt and Arshad Warsi will replace Nana Patekar and Anil Kapoor in the film.
According to a Pinkvillla report, producer Firoz Nadiadwala has planned a third film for the popular franchise with Sanjay and Arshad. “Of the 3 films under Firoz Nadiadwala’s banner, Welcome might be the first to take off as the script was ready a while back. The filmmaker is planning to bring a spin in the narrative of this comic caper by getting Sanjay Dutt and Arshad to play the notorious gangsters – Majnu and Uday. The duo have already shown their chemistry as Munna and Circuit and now it will be time to explore the dimension in a new franchise,” Pinkvilla reported quoting a source.
While the reports also say that Akshay Kumar, who played the role of Rajiv, will be back for the third instalment.
