Aamir Khan is always in the news. Although he has not announced any new project after the ill-fated Laal Singh Chadha, there is much speculation on the sequel to Sarfarosh. But is there any room for a sequel to a film that had its say 25 years ago?
Aamir Khan always means what he says. It therefore came as a surprise to hear him say at the 25-year celebratory screening of the film Sarfarosh that there might be a sequel.
I very clearly remember speaking to the director John Matthew Matthan a few years after the release of Sarfarosh, and he had said, “I don’t think there is room for carrying the story forward. We said what we had to say. There is nothing more to it.”
So was Aamir simply humouring the press with the temptation of a sequel to Sarfarosh?
I decided to broach the subject of the Sarfarosh sequel with Aamir. He replied, “Let us see how the script turns out. It all depends on that.”
When I told him I saw Sarfarosh recently and that it holds well even now Aamir replied, “I am so glad. I haven’t seen it in a long while. Apparently Sonali Bendre (who plays the female lead in Sarfarosh) saw it for the first time a few days ago!”
Aamir also expressed happiness about the success of Kiran Rao’s Laapata Ladies. “Kiran has made a beautiful film,” Aamir said.
