The
trend
of
making
sequels
has
caught
on
in
a
big
way.
In
fact,
the
moment
a
film
hits
the
bull's
eye,
most
producers
immediately
jump
at
the
idea
of
making
a
sequel
to
the
film.
The
announcement
of
a
sequel
creates
tremendous
excitement
within
and
outside
the
film
industry
and
gradually,
the
film
becomes
a
brand.
The
latest
news
doing
the
rounds
is
that
producer
Ramesh
Taurani
is
planning
to
make
a
sequel
to
Ishq
Vishk.
Rumours
are
rife
that
Ratna
Sinha
will
direct
the
film,
which
is
expected
to
star
Shahid
Kapoor
and
Priyanka
Chopra
in
the
lead.
However,
Ramesh
Taurani
denies
the
development
completely,
"It's
untrue.
We
don't
have
a
story
for
a
sequel,
so
how
can
we
announce
the
film
in
the
first
place?" But
he
confirms
that
Ratna
Sinha
did
narrate
a
subject
to
him.
"But
it
was
for
an
altogether
different
film.
Beyond
that
we
haven't
had
any
discussions,"
Taurani
adds.
Meanwhile,
Taurani
is
gearing
up
to
start
Race
2,
directed
by
Abbas-Mustan.
This
film
is
likely
to
take
off
early
next
year.
