Sudhir Mishra to make sequel of Iss Raat Ki Subah Nahin

Filmmaker Sudhir Mishra will soon start making a sequel of his earlier 1996-made film Iss Raat Ki Subah Nahin. Confirming the same, Mishra quipped, “We are making a sequel and are re-looking at the story. With the film, I want to get back to the space of thriller.” Reportedly, the sequel will have Chitrangda Singh, Irrfan Khan and Arunoday Singh. Mishra’s other upcoming ambitious project is Mehrunissa which will incidentally have two veterans playing pivotal roles namely Amitabh Bachchan and Rishi Kapoor. “The script of Mehrunissa is almost finished. It is a big-budget film. We will make an announcement soon,” he observed. Mehrunissa is a story of a woman who acts as a `catalyst' in bringing together two estranged friends and besides Rishi Kapoor, actresses like Chitrangada Singh, Deepika Padukone, Vidya Balan, and Katrina Kaif are being considered for the film. Mishra's soon-to-release Inkaar deals with the subject of sexual harassment and stars Arjun Rampal and Chitrangada Singh. The film is expected to release in January next year (2013).
