Vipul Shah, the producer of last year's blockbuster hit Singh Is Kinng is now planning a sequel to the film. This time around, however, director Anees Bazmee has been edged out and Vipul himself plans to direct SIK2.
A source reveals, "Vipul has just wrapped Action Replay with Akshay. And it was during the making of this film that he sounded out the actor on his sequel idea. Akki was charged and gave his nod to it. He even gave Vipul some ideas tou00a0 incorporate in the film."
Different setting, different cast
Vipul is keen to take the story of the nutty Happy Singh forward and wants to place him in a different setting with a different cast. The source further adds, "Vipul is currently busy with the post-production of two of his forthcoming films London Dreams and Action Replay, both of which are ready for release.
He has got a faint idea where he wants the story of Singh Is Kinng to be and has asked his writers to work on the project details." Vipul Shah remained unavailable for comment.
