Ranbir Kapoor, who most recently appeared in Tu Jhoothi Main Makkaar, continues to be well-known for his role in Ayan Mukerji’s 2013 film Yeh Jawaani Hai Deewani. Ranbir recently expressed his opinion that the movie “would make a good sequel.” The actor chose YJHD after one of his admirers asked which of his films, besides Brahmastra, he “would want to do a sequel of.”
Ranbir averred, “I think Yeh Jawani Hai Deewani would make a good sequel.” Ayan Mukerji had a “nice story” for it, the actor said, but he is currently concentrating on the Brahmastra series.
“Ayan also had a very nice story, I remember, but then he went into this Brahmastra journey. But, never say never. He might make it after a couple of years,” he said. Ranbir said that the story could be set 10 years after the first film ended. “I think the story will be 10 years forward where Bunny, Naina, Avi and Aditi, where they are in their lives. I think it’ll be quite interesting and nice to explore those characters,” he added.
Fans at the time adored the 2013 movie, which also starred Deepika Padukone, Aditya Roy Kapur, and Kalki Koechlin.
Ranbir had discussed a potential sequel to the movie in an interview with Bollywood Hungama from 2018 and claimed that it might be made in between Brahmastra Part 1 and Part 2. “Ayan is on the journey to make Brahmastra, which is very time-consuming. But we have often spoken about Yeh Jawaani Hai Deewani 2. He also has an idea for it and he seldom says we should have just done that it would be an easier film. More easier than Brahmastra, because he is going quite crazy, making this film. You never know. Maybe between Brahmastra Part 1 and 2, we get a window of 6 months,” he averred.
After the September 2022 release of Brahmastra Part 1, Ayan declared in April 2023 that he will be filming Brahmastra Parts 2 and 3 “together.” Currently, the third installment will be released in December 2027, while the second part will be released in December 2026.
