Anubhav Sinha has expressed interest in making Ra.One 2, but says the sequel depends on Shah Rukh Khan’s availability. The filmmaker called it a long-term commitment requiring two to three years

Shah Rukh Khan in Ra.One
Back in 2011, the Shah Rukh Khan-starrer Ra.One was considered an experimental film. Superhero movies were not common in Indian cinema at the time, but Sinha went ahead with the ambitious project, and Khan placed complete faith in it. The film combined advanced VFX, gaming culture, and Indian family drama. However, it did not receive the desired box office response upon release. Despite underperforming commercially, the film’s scenes and music remain memorable even today.
In a recent interview with Prabhat Khabar, Sinha was asked about the possibility of a sequel. He said he is keen to make Ra.One 2, but it would require a long commitment of two to three years."Ra One 2 ka ye hai... mera bhi bada mann hai... Ra One 2 ko banane me lagenge 2-3 saal. 2-3 saal ki lambi shaadi hai wo. To main zara, thoda sa khaali ho jau. Phir sochta hu ki wo teen saal tab main zindagi me lagana chahta hu aur uss wakt Khan sahab available hai ki nahi hai. Kyuki Khan sabah bhi to lage hue hai ek ke baad ek, ek ke baad ek. (I wish to make Ra One 2. Unfortunately, it would take 2 to 3 years to make the film. It is a long commitment. So when I get a little bit freer, then I would start thinking about it. I would also have to see if Shah Rukh Khan is available or not. Since he is also jumping from one project to another non-stop.)”
