There is a trend in Bollywood these days of making sequels to old hit films. Some sequels are doing well at the box office, while others are flops.
Meanwhile, the second part (sequel) of the popular comedy film 'Mala Maal Weekly' of 2006 has been confirmed.
The first part of this film, which featured actors like Paresh Rawal, Om Puri and Rajpal Yadav, was very well received by the audience. However, this time there will be a big change in the sequel. The original director of the film, Priyadarshan, will not be taking the helm this time.
'Mala Maal Weekly', which was released about 20 years ago, told a funny story of a village riot over a lottery ticket.
As mentioned in the Bollywood media, talks are underway with 'Badhaai Ho' fame director Amit Sharma for 'Mala Maal Weekly 2'. Amit Sharma is said to be very excited about this project. Paresh Rawal, Riteish Deshmukh and Rajpal Yadav are likely to reprise their old roles in the film.
It seems that there will be a big change not only in the director, but also in the production side of the film. The first film was produced by Shailendra Singh's 'Percept Picture Company' and 'Sahara Motion Pictures'. However, this time they are not associated with this project.
When asked by Bollywood media about the rights of the film, Shailendra Singh said, 'Paresh Rawal had contacted me and asked for the rights of the sequel. However, the rights of this film are with Sahara and another party. I am not in a position to say anything right now as I do not have clear documents about it.'
'Mala Maal Weekly', released in 2006, is one of the films that achieved great success despite being made on a low budget.
Made on a budget of just 70 million Indian rupees, this film had a business of 42.7 million rupees worldwide.
Written and directed by Priyadarshan, this film is equally popular today.
