‘Fighter‘ starring Hrithik Roshan, Deepika Padukone released on January 25 and is on its way to cross the Rs 100 crore mark once the Sunday numbers are added. The film is getting rave reviews from the audience and a lot of appreciation from all over. Hence, fans are hoping if there would be a sequel to the film and if ‘Fighter’ would become a franchise.
Director Siddharth Anand has reacted to this possibility during a chat with Pinkvilla and the director said that he gets nervous to make part 2s. He added that he’s one of the directors who has not yet made a sequel because he likes to refrain from that. However, Anand said, ‘never say never’. So, the love of the audience will decide what to do. As of now, it’s just been 3-4 days to the release and he has some great ideas for ‘Fighter 2‘ which he wants to pen down.
Siddharth also added that he is not excited to make sequels at the moment as he wants to create new characters and new stories. There is a certain amount of comfort zone in sequels and a director starts relying on the nostalgia. If he does that, then the director will feel stagnanted and he would get into a comfort zone. Anand clarified that he doesn’t want to get into a comfort zone.
‘Fighter’ also stars Anil Kapoor, Karan Singh Grover. Earlier, Siddharth had directed Hrithik in ‘WAR’ and now the film’s sequel is being made but Siddharth has not helmed the project. Reportedly, Ayan Mukerji is set to direct the film with Hrithik, along side Jr NTR and Kiara Advani.
