‘Munna Bhai 3’ on the cards? Sanjay Dutt shares he’s waiting for the film to happen in a viral post

Actor Sanjay Dutt took to social media to give a shoutout to director Vidhu Vinod Chopra for his upcoming film ‘12th Fail’ with Vikrant Massey. While praising the film, he hinted that the third installment in the popular ‘Munna Bhai’ franchise could be on the cards.

‘Film looking great sirji, praying it’s a winner, all the best, now waiting for Munna bhai,’ he wrote.

For the unversed, Vidhu Vinod Chopra was the one who produced the first two films.

Recently, Sanjay Dutt, Arshad Warsi, and Rajkumar Hirani left fans excited after they were spotted together on a set. Their reunion led to speculations about ‘Munna Bhai 3’. However, it was later reported that the same was for an advertisement.

According to a report in Hindustan Times, Sanjay and Arshad shot an ad for a hospital. ‘There is no film in the making. They shot for a commercial for a hospital, and the BTS video was released online, which started the rumours,’ a source told HT.

The report further stated that ‘Munna Bhai 3’ may never happen. A source told the publication, ‘There are very less chances of the third film happening now because of the fallout between Rajkummar Hirani and (producer) Vidhu Vinod Chopra. It has been several years since they parted ways. In fact, there was a film with a working title Munna Bhai Chale America, but that was soon shelved without any reason. The script was finalised and the pre-production had also started, but it could not happen.’
