3 Idiots Sequel: The buzz around a sequel to the 2009 blockbuster 3 Idiots is still going strong. Fans have been wondering if Rajkumar Hirani is planning a follow-up and whether Aamir Khan, R Madhavan and Sharman Joshi will return. But the latest statements from Aamir and Madhavan have sent the internet into a frenzy.
Directed by Rajkumar Hirani, 3 Idiots starred Aamir Khan, R Madhavan and Sharman Joshi as friends navigating college life. The film was a huge hit in India and overseas. It became a cultural phenomenon with memorable dialogues and iconic characters.
Madhavan Doubts 3 Idiots Sequel, Aamir Khan ‘Not Approached’
In an interview with Bollywood Hungama, Madhavan shared his thoughts on revisiting the franchise. He said, “A sequel to 3 Idiots sounds great. But it also sounds far-fetched. All three of us (Aamir Khan, Sharman Joshi and I) are much older now. Where do we go in the sequel? What are our lives like now? It is an interesting thought. But hardly conducive to a proper sequel. I would love to work with Raju Hirani again. But 3 Idiots again? I think that would be idiotic.”
Aamir Khan also addressed the rumours. He said, “We had so much fun making that film! My character Rancho is the most popular character I’ve played. People still talk about Rancho. So yeah, I’d love to do a sequel. But no one has approached me.”
Reddit Explodes With Theories
The interviews quickly went viral. Reddit fans are coming up with wild predictions. Some think a sequel could have a completely new cast. Others are imagining possible storylines.
Read some reactions below
“It is certainly odd that all of them are denying it in coordination.”
“I think this is a publicity stunt and they will ‘surprise’ all with an announcement.”
“Here’s an idea: Rancho has been unconstitutionally jailed, and the other two help him get out.”
“It’s happening with younger actors, not the old cast.”
Why The Film Still Special
3 Idiots was the first Indian film to earn Rs 400 crore worldwide. It set a benchmark for box office performance overseas. The movie stayed India’s highest-grossing film for years. Repeated TV broadcasts and OTT streaming have helped it gain a cult following. Besides the main trio, Boman Irani, Kareena Kapoor, Omi Vaidya and Mona Singh played key roles.
Even years later, 3 Idiots continues to spark excitement, and fans remain curious if the story of Rancho and his friends will ever return to the big screen.
