Filmmaker Rajkumar Santoshi says work on the script of a sequel to the comedy film "Andaz Apna Apna" is on, but he is sure that he won't roll the cameras for it until he is fully satisfied with the script.
"A sequel should be worth it. I don't want to make a film just for the heck of it. I am still working on the script. When I will be completely satisfied with the script, I will make it, but nothing right now," Santoshi said.
The original 1994 film starred actor Aamir Khan and Salman Khan in the lead roles, and there are rumours that the sequel may feature Ranbir Kapoor and Shahid Kapoor as the leads.
When Santoshi was asked if he will cast the Aamir-Salman again or he is planning to cast any of the younger actors, he said: "The script will decide. I am very much in touch with Aamir and Salman."
"They are huge stars, and so their returns are also huge. But the cost of production will also increase... so if everything is justified, we will see."
Directed by Santoshi, "Andaz Apna Apna" also featured Raveena Tandon, Karisma Kapoor, Paresh Rawal and Shakti kapoor.
