Sriram Raghavan Plans 'Johnny Gaddar' Re-release and Considers Sequels
Filmmaker Sriram Raghavan plans a limited re-release of his 2007 cult hit "Johnny Gaddar" to mark its 20th anniversary and is interested in making a sequel. He is also open to sequels for "Badlapur" and "Andhadhun" if compelling stories emerge. Raghavan emphasized that story quality, not commercial ease, will guide his decisions. His recent film "Ikkis" was critically acclaimed, and he paid tribute to late actor Dharmendra, who starred in both "Johnny Gaddar" and "Ikkis."
