'Kahaani 2' shelved

A still from Kahaani

While audiences were eagerly awaiting the 'Kahaani' sequel, which was tentatively titled Kahaani 2, the latest is that the project has been shelved. With this the controversy and uncertainty too, which has been dragging for sometime, has finally ended.

We have heard that in lieu of Kahaani 2, another thriller is being made for which Sujoy Ghosh has signed Irrfan and Vidya Balan. When asked Vidya confirmed and said, "Yes, I don't see the sequel happening. Maybe it can take place only if co-producer Jayantilal Gada and director Sujoy Ghosh patch up. But I really am not aware of what's happening there."

According to the sources, Sujoy is not keen to court any trouble and that's the reason Kahaani 2 is put on indefinite hold. However, he has the title rights with him. Elaborating on the movie, Vidya said, "It's going to release in the end of 2014 and is a different story." Sources said Vidya and Sujoy had a word about the new project. "Since Kahaani was very close to Vidya's heart, she was keen to take it further. However, the circumstances did not allow." Vidya, while talking about the matter looked little sad, but she also looked ecstatic to be a part of Sujoy's core team in his next.

Best that people remember how much they loved it rather than the name getting tarnished because 2 didn't live up to it. Personally wasn't overwhelmed with it anyway.
What next anyway, Vidya finds love...?
