Amid Gadar 2 Success, Subhash Ghai Reveals Khalnayak 2 Is In Works: ‘It Will Have Sanjay Dutt And A New Star’

Amid the success of Sunny Deol and Ameesha Patel’s Gadar 2, Bollywood filmmaker Subhash Ghai has said that the sequel to Sanjay Dutt’s Khalnayak is currently in works. He also announced that the film will re-release in theatres in September 2023.

Khalnayak also starred Jackie Shroff and Madhuri Dixit Nene in the lead roles. The film hit the big screens in 1993 and the team recently celebrated 30 years of its release.

According to a report in Pinkvilla, Subhash Ghai has shared that the film will re-release in cinemas on September 4 in more than 100 screens. The filmmaker also stated that his company will soon announce sequels of some iconic films like Khalnayak, Pardes, Karma and Saudagar.

“We have a story lab, they keep working on the story, and I am heading that department. People love nostalgia, and Ballu Balram of Khalnayak may appear on the screen in a big way. I have been getting many messages after Gadar 2’s success, ‘Why don’t you make Khalnayak 2?’ So we are contemplating on it and you will hear the news very soon. It will have Sanjay and a new star, both of them together,” he told the news portal.

The film became one of the biggest hits after it released in 1993. It hit the big screens around the time when Sanjay Dutt was arrested for his alleged connections to the underworld and was also accused of being involved in the 1993 Mumbai bomb blasts.

Back then, Khalnayak became quite popular before its release due to the controversy around its song Choli Ke Peeche Kya Hai. In fact, Subhash Ghai had claimed in one of his interviews that the film lost out on its National Award because of the controversies surrounding the song.

Sanjay Dutt was seen as Balram Prasad Ballu in the film. While Jackie Shroff played Inspector Ram Kumar Sinha, Madhuri was seen as his fiancé Ganga.

The movie revolves around the chase of Ballu, who escapes from jail and causes distress to Ram. To help Ram, Ganga joins Ballu’s gang to lure him back into custody. However, without having any idea about the consequences, Ballu falls in love with Ganga.

Yash-starrer ‘Toxic’ being shot in English and Kannada, director ensures ‘authentic experience’

Published

Mumbai, Feb 24: Yash’s “Toxic” is touted to be the first ever large scale Indian film to be conceptualised, written, and filmed in both English and Kannada. Director Geetu Mohandas says the vision was to craft a narrative that resonates with audiences both in “India and globally”.

“Our vision for ‘Toxic’ was to craft a narrative that resonates authentically with audiences both in India and globally,” says director Geetu Mohandas.

“Toxic: A Fairy Tale for Grown-Ups” will be dubbed in multiple Indian and international languages, including Hindi, Telugu, Tamil, and Malayalam.

Mohandas added: “We’ve strived to capture the nuances of the story in both Kannada and English, ensuring an authentic experience for viewers across different linguistic and cultural backgrounds.”

He said that the film “explores a collaboration of artistic vision and precision of commercial storytelling.”

“It’s a journey that transcends borders, languages, and cultural confines, designed to connect with hearts and minds worldwide,” concluded the director.

Toxic, a film jointly produced by Venkat Narayana under KVN Productions and Yash’s Monster Mind Creations, was conceived as a global cinematic experience.

The film’s international team—including action sequences by JJ Perry, best known for his work in the John Wick and Fast & Furious franchises, and visual effects by DNEG, who recently won the BAFTA Film Award for Special Visual Effects for Dune: Part Two—was carefully assembled to match the project’s scale.

Last month, on Yash’s birthday, the makers released a “Birthday Peek” offering a glimpse into the film. Filming began in August 2024.

Producer Venkat K Narayana emphasised the film’s ambitious scope, saying, “Our goal for “Toxic” was crystal clear: a film that resonates in India and globally. From the very beginning, we were driven by a deep conviction in this story and its potential. This unwavering belief fueled our “all-in” approach, required to bring this cinematic experience to life.”

“We embraced the challenge wholeheartedly, confident that “Toxic” will not only captivate audiences worldwide but also showcase the brilliance of Indian cinema on a global stage.”

Nargis Fakhri has always guarded her personal life, and has never spoken about her relationships. Many years ago, she was in the news for dating Uday Chopra, but both the actors never confirmed their relationship. Later, Nargis made it to the headlines for being in a relationship with businessman Tony Beig, but once again, the actress never spoke about it.

Now, recently, there have been reports of Nargis and Tony getting married, and a few inside pictures of their wedding made it to the social media. However, in those pictures apart from the venue and a cake, we don’t get to see anything else.
