Imran Khan and Genelia D’souza-starrer Jaane Tu Ya Jaane Na is one of the most iconic romantic dramas of Bollywood. Now, as Imran Khan is all set to make a comeback to films, fans have been wondering if Jaane Tu Ya Jaane Na will have a sequel. The film’s director has finally revealed Aamir Khan’s reaction to the idea of the sequel.
In an interview with Cyrus Broacha for his YouTube Channel, Abbas Tyrewala revealed that he pitched the idea of Jaane Tu Ya Jaane Na sequel to Aamir Khan but he shot it down and called it ‘stupid’. He said, “I don’t know if I am allowed to say this. Mr Aamir Khan is rather sensitive about what should be spoken of and what not but shortly after Jaane Tu, I came up with an idea for the sequel. Even I wasn’t sure if I was joking or not.”
He further revealed Aamir Khan’s reaction after he narrated the idea for Jaane Tu Ya Jaane Na sequel and said, “I took it to Khan saab and I told him that the film starts with Jay and Aditi living separately. They are separated and Jay has an affair with Meghna. Aamir said ‘I don’t care who makes the sequel to Jaane Tu, it will never be you. He said this is the stupidest thing.”
The filmmaker further tried to explain his point of view and said, “I said that’s how life occurs. After all that romance what will happen is that they will go sick of each other, they will want to get divorced, he will be drunk somewhere, he will meet Meghna and he will end up… So to me, Jay and Meghna have a scene and Jay and Aditi split up as a result and how they don’t split was supposed to be the story. Aamir said ‘never refer to this movie again. Thank god you directed just one, never refer to it again.”
