Veteran screenwriter V Vijayendra Prasad, who has written the scripts of iconic films like Magadheera (2009), Eega (2012), the Baahubali franchise, Bajrangi Bhaijaan (2015) and RRR (2022), has sparked interest in a potential sequel to Bajrangi Bhaijaan, revealing he has met Salman Khan, and narrated a story that the actor has liked. Prasad told PTI, “I met Salman... I narrated a line to him, he liked it. But let’s see what happens.” Salman is reportedly keen to ensure this film resonates with the audience like the 2015 original did. It could help him redeem himself after recent box-office setbacks. “Yes, it [Bajrangi Bhaijaan 2] can happen. Kabir Khan is writing it, and the first draft is ready,” the superstar had said while promoting his last box-office dud, Sikandar. However, he also added, “By the time it’s ready, Munni will be speaking,” hinting that the project will take longer to come on screens than he would like.
