Mumbai: ‘Badlapur’ was the movie that turned out to be a turning point for both Varun Dhawan and Nawazuddin Siddiqui, who played major roles in the movie.

Now, according to a report on Mumbai Mirror, Sriram Raghavan is collaborating with Dinesh Vijan for ‘Badlapur 2’ after joining hands for Ayushmann Khurrana, Tabu and Radhika Apte starrer ‘Shoot The Piano Player’ (tentative title).

“Sriram will give Dinesh a choice of two scripts. The first is an adventure thriller while the other one is a revenge drama. The latter is on the lines of ‘Badlapur’ and Dinesh wants to pitch it as ‘Badlapur 2’. But it is not a follow-up on the earlier story, this is a different plot altogether but in the same zone,” the source told Mirror.

‘Badlapur’ had completely transformed Varun’s image and made audiences believe that this actor can pull off any role given to him. But will he be in ‘Badlapur 2’?

“Sriram usually prefers to cast for his film only after his script is ready. But yes, the makers are on the lookout for an A-lister. It’s too early to confirm if Varun will be a part of the project,” added the source.

Director Sriram Raghavan had to tell the daily, “It is too soon to talk about it.”
