An unexpected development a few days ago was the replacement of Akshay Kumar in Rowdy Rathore 2 by Sidharth Malhotra.
It appears that Rowdy Rathore 2 is going through a similar series of developments as Hera Pheri 3 (or 4). As everyone is aware, Akshay Kumar initially declared publicly that he would no longer be appearing in the upcoming Hera Pheri installment, but he quickly joined the cast. Now, RR 2 might be seen experiencing the same situation.
For those who don’t know, Rowdy Rathore’s sequel has been in the works for a very long time, and a stunning update finally surfaced a few days ago. It was about Sidharth Malhotra taking over as the primary character after Akshay. For fans and even the uninterested public, the news that Akshay would not be playing the major role in “Rowdy” came as a huge shock. However, there is now some positive news for those who oppose Akki’s replacement.
According to a rumours, Sidharth Malhotra is now not at all taking Akshay Kumar’s place in Rowdy Rathore 2. Anees Bazmee is also being given consideration for appointment as a director. a person familiar with the situation says,“Yes, Producer Sanjay Leela Bhansali and filmmaker Anees Bazmee and are in talks for Rowdy Rathore 2 and the latter will direct the film as the two share a great rapport. Other than this development, it’s all mere stories.”
The report further continues,“There have been no discussions yet about replacing Akshay with Sidharth in the sequel. Though some people from the film’s team want Siddharth to be a part of the film and are pushing for his name, also because Kiara is in talks to star in the film, no concrete decision has been taken by the makers yet. In fact, there have been no talks about the casting of the main lead at all.”
All Akshay Kumar admirers can now breathe a sense of relief. Now let’s hope that Akshay makes a comeback in Rowdy Rathore 2 as his enduring character.
