Munna Bhai director Raj Kumar Hirani has decided that he will no longer be directing any further of the movies in the series.
Talking to a Bollywood reporter, Hirani said “I really need to prove myself beyond the (Munnabhai) series. Otherwise, my well-wishers will turn around and ask, ‘Can he do anything else?’ But, of course, Sanju, Arshad and I have a responsibility to carry forward the series. “But Lage Raho… wasn’t a sequel. It was an independent film. Thank god, critics saw this as an original script. But I need to get away from these two guys. I must say Sanju and Arshad worked very hard. In M.B.B.S they had a readymade script to rely on. In Lage Raho, the script went through changes right till the end. Sanju’s contribution was immense.”
Abhijat Joshi is currently writing the script of the third Munna Bhai film, which will once again be produced by Vidhu Vinod Chopra.
