Shah Rukh Khan to star in Baazigar 2? Producer Ratan Jain says sequel will ‘definitely be made’

As a die-hard Bollywood fan with over three decades of cinema-watching under my belt, I must say that the prospect of Baazigar 2 is nothing short of thrilling! The original film was a game-changer for Shah Rukh Khan and marked his transition from the charming romantic hero to the enigmatic anti-hero.


The film “Baazigar,” starring Shah Rukh Khan, has gained cult status and continues to be popular today. Khan left an indelible impression with his portrayal of the anti-hero in the 1993 romantic thriller. In intriguing news, it’s been reported that SRK is negotiating for a sequel titled “Baazigar 2.” Ratan Jain, the producer, has confirmed that a follow-up is definitely on the horizon.

In a recent interview with ETimes, producer Ratan Jain stated that discussions with Shah Rukh Khan regarding a Baazigar sequel are in process. According to the portal, Jain shared that a script was not ready yet but wanted to go ahead with the film only if SRK will star in the lead.

Additionally, Jain shared that they’ve got an intriguing notion for the next installment. However, what’s required is a powerful screenplay and innovative direction to ensure it lives up to the excellence of the original movie.

According to Ratan Jain, we’ve been discussing the possibility of Baazigar 2 with Shah Rukh, but so far, not a lot has progressed. However, he assured us that it is definitely going to be produced.

1993 saw the debut of Baazigar on November 12th. As of now, it’s been 31 years since its initial release. This classic Bollywood movie featured the unforgettable duo of Shah Rukh Khan and Kajol, two stars who have left a lasting impact on Indian cinema. In addition to these leads, Shilpa Shetty, Rakhee, Dalip Tahil, and Johny Lever also played significant roles. Abbas-Mustan were the film’s directors. Baazigar garnered widespread praise for its compelling storyline, acting, music, and suspenseful elements.

At the moment, Shah Rukh Khan is preparing to begin shooting for his upcoming movie titled King, starting from January 2025. This will be Shah Rukh’s debut collaboration with his daughter Suhana Khan, and they will be joined by Abhishek Bachchan and Abhay Verma in the film.

Previously, TopMob disclosed some intriguing insights about my favorite star, SRK, taking on a multi-dimensional role in his upcoming film, King. According to insider reports, this is a passion project for Shah Rukh Khan, who’s been diligently working alongside Siddharth Anand and Sujoy Ghosh to create an electrifying character with a mix of cool attitude, swagger, and, most excitingly, shades of gray. I can hardly wait to see how this unfolds on the big screen!
