Right now, there is a fashion for making sequels, and it will positively work at the box office as well. But the filmmaker has no plans to make the sequel. In an interview with a news portal, the filmmaker was asked if he has any plans to make the sequel to Rang De Basanti.

The filmmaker firmly denied and said, "I have said what I had to say with Rang De Basanti, and I don't want to repeat that. If I had something else to say, I would say that, but with some other film and not with the Rang De Basanti. Also, it is the certain kinds of movies that demands a sequel, like James Bond, Mission Impossible. I made a film on college students who get so inspired by the likes of young revolutionaries who dropped their pens and picked up their guns, and gave up their lives for the country, and for the people of the country".

Rakeysh Omprakash Mehra called Rang De Basanti a personal life and added, "The way the story was told, catered to the younger generations, and I realised to make this film because I was like that in my college days like, only complain about the system and didn't jump in to the fire and there are many who do the same, take comfortable jobs and only crib about the system and do nothing about it. Rang De Basanti was a personal film, something I couldn't do, and I wanted that young people should watch it because they are the ones who can change the system, so retelling the same story is not possible."
