Filmamker Vidhoo vinod Chopra recently revealed he'd consider Ranbir Kapoor or Shahid Kapoor if he ever wanted a younger Munnabhai. Since Munna Bhai and Circuit have almost become a brand post "MunnaBhai MBBS" and "Lagey Raho MunnaBhai" , the charaters have become more important rather than the actors( Sanjay Dutt and Arshad Warsi).
Chopra is working on the script of the second sequel ( third of the series) along with Rajkumar Hirani and Abhijat joshi after the roaring success of his last production "3 Idiots".He admits, even though Shahrukh was his first choice for "Munnabhai" and also for the character of "Rancho"( in 3 Idiots), he finally settled for Sanjay Dutt and Aamir Khan respectively. And today he feels both of them have done a splendid job and no one could think those characters could have been portraye by anyone else.
However he is open to the idea of replacing Sanjay if he ever needs a younger version of beloved MunnaBhai.
For now, Sanjay dutt and Arshad Warsi will be the playing the respective parts in the next one.
