Writer Mayur Puri Discusses Potential Sequel to Om Shanti Om
As Om Shanti Om marks 19 years since its 2007 release, writer Mayur Puri discussed the possibility of a sequel featuring Shah Rukh Khan and Deepika Padukone. While no official announcement has been made, Puri suggested a sequel could be highly profitable, potentially earning around Rs 300 crore. However, he expressed hesitation about recreating the original's unique appeal, likening it to a cherished family recipe that cannot be exactly replicated. Puri believes director Farah Khan would deliver an entertaining film if the sequel proceeds.
