The ground below Sanjay Dutt and Arshad Warsi’s feet may have just shaken! News is that the original Munnabhai-Circuit jodi is being replaced, and Aamir Khan-Sharman Joshi are being considered to fill their shoes!
Sanjay Dutt and Arshad Warsi were a part of the successful Munnabhai franchise that has two releases till date – Munnabhai MBBS and Lage Raho Munnabhai. The teaser of the third too – Munnabhai Chale Amrika – has already been shot with Dutt and Warsi, however the lack of a good script has led to the project being on hold.
If sources are to be believed, it’s while the shooting of ’3 Idiots’ that Rajkumar Hirani and Vidhu Vinod Chopra considered the option of casting Aamir Khan and Sharman Joshi as Munnabhai and Circuit. The makers, apparently, thought that it would bring about a fresh change to the image and the franchise. In fact, we are told that Aamir was excited about the idea and was game if the script was good enough.
Well, let’s wait and watch how this exactly works out for all in the industry, and if it works out at all in the first place.
