Director, Anurag Basu will direct Boney Kapoor’s Mr India 2. This confirms the news of Shridevi’s long awaited comeback to Bollywood. It is sequel to 1987’s Mr India, directed by Shekhar Kapur.

The co-producer of the film, Manmohan Shetty confirmed this, “Yes, Anil and Shridevi should be there in the film. We have met Anurag and asked him to direct Mr India 2. Shekhar who is the creative head for the Mr India 2, is currently not in the country. A final decision will be taken after he returns on December 11.”

However, the director Anurag Basu said, “Let’s see what happens. But yes, I am in advanced talks to direct Mr India 2.”

Previously, Shekhar was asked to direct the sequel, but he was not interested to direct the film and hence turn down the offer. Shekhar said, “I’m involved with Mr India 2 in the creative advisory capacity. I don’t want to direct it. I don’t want to do it again.”

There are speculations that the film will have two couples. One older (Shridevi and Anil Kapoor) and for younger couple the filmmakers are searching for.
