Arshad Warsi recently declared that Munna Bhai 3 would shortly begin production.
After completing filming for Raj Kumar Hirani’s Dunki, which features Shah Rukh Khan, Boman Irani is making his debut film as planned.
“I have been working on my film for almost four-five months. I am directing the film and I have written and produced it as well. The work is going on. I will be able to finish the film by December,” Irani said.
Boman Irani was addressing outside the Hindi premiere of the more than 800-time-produced Gujarati drama Welcome Zindagi.
Arshad Warsi recently declared that Munna Bhai 3 would shortly begin production. When questioned about it, Arshad’s Munna Bhai co-star Boman Irani responded as follows, “I have no idea about Munna Bhai 3. I seriously don’t know. If Arshad has announced an update, I am more than excited.”
Irani discussed the popularity of “Welcome Zindagi,” a theatre piece with which she has a personal attachment.
“Abhijat Joshi’s brother wrote it. I don’t remember whether I was shooting for PK or ‘Sanju‘ when Abhijat read out to me a few scenes from the play, and watching them in reality was quite a surreal experience,” Boman Irani said.
“The play explores a thought that somehow gets stuck in every father, mother, brother, sister, or person’s mind and how it affects each one of them. The entire performance was so sublime,” Irani said.
Can the play be made into a movie? Irani said: “I haven’t thought about it, but why not? The subject is universal, a very specific subject, it’s about a father, mother and child, so yeah, it could be made.”
Together with Jigna Vyas, Abhinav Bankar, and Saumya Joshi, “Welcome Zindagi” is written, directed, and acted by them. Without a break, the two-hour play is an original theatrical production.
