Here's the latest update from the Bollywood world:
The star also bats for lower ticket and popcorn prices at cinema halls.
Adding to this, In an exclusive chat with Bollywood Hungama , Shetty shared, “The sequel is happening for sure. I think early next year for sure.” When asked if he means that the movie will go on floors early next year, he shared, “Yeah yeah.” The veteran star touched upon this topic while speaking about the Season 2 of his business reality show Bharat Ke Super Founders. Earlier this year, Shetty had given a hint about the movie’s sequel in an Instagram post but hadn’t shared any details about when it would go on floors.
Meanwhile, Shetty has had a good outing in 2026 with his multi-starrer Welcome To The Jungle attaining success. When this was pointed out to him, he was quick to add, “I also had Border 2 . I was there for one scene but I take that as a success as that’s finally our franchise. I am very happy with the way things are going. Also because of the success of the Season 1 of Bharat Ke Super Founders.”
Notably, The star shared that these days he has been choosing projects on the impact they are going to make. “Whether I choose my brands or movies or anything that I do, it should have a positive impact on people,” he shared. “It should bring about some change. Either you provide pure entertainment or stay absolutely neutral with your choice of cinema without hurting anybody’s sentiments. I don’t want to do that ever.”
As per the latest buzz, Shetty is happy with the way the year has been for Hindi cinema at the ticket-window. “The first half was brilliant,” he shared. “The second quarter is extraordinary and the last quarter looks insane with the kind of films and their success. I am super happy about that. Only if we could have more exhibitors, theatres, lower ticket prices and cheaper popcorns; then I will be happier.”
In further updates, Apart from Awara Paagal Deewana part 2, Shetty has a couple of more films for which he is looking forward to. “I have got Hitman and another movie called Sabse Bada Rupaiya . And (other) films that are really exciting and I am looking forward to them. (They have) different scripts and very different stories,” he signed off.
