Fardeen Khan expressed his sentimental attachment to his 2005 film "No Entry" and expressed hopes that the forthcoming sequel, featuring a fresh cast, will live up to the standards set by the original.
Producer Boney Kapoor recently confirmed the active development of the sequel, revealing that Varun Dhawan, Diljit Dosanjh, and Arjun Kapoor will headline the project.
Anees Bazmee, who directed the first part starring Fardeen, Salman Khan and Anil Kapoor, is returning for the follow-up as well.
“I've heard the script, it is absolutely hilarious. I think everyone tried hard to work out whether it was from Salman Khan or Boney Kapoor or Anees Bazmee... It's a film that's close to my heart," Fardeen told the media.
"Wish we could have been a part of it but it wasn’t meant to be. So, these things happen. For Anees and Boney, I only have love and my best wishes on the sequel, all I would say is: ‘Don't mess it up’,” he added.
The 50-year-old actor expressed his anticipation for the sequel, stating, “I don't know if they're taking a different approach with the sequel, but I'm confident it will maintain the essence of what Anees had envisioned. I believe it will be fantastic. I extend my best wishes and eagerly await its release.”
