It is hard to believe it has been 10 years since Bajrangi Bhaijaan first found its way into people’s hearts.

We set out to tell a story of love and hope in a world that sometimes forgets these emotions,” he wrote, capturing the essence of the film’s universal appeal.

Adding fuel to the excitement, Kabir Khan recently confirmed in an interview with Pinkvilla that discussions are indeed underway for a sequel. “We have definitely spoken about Bajrangi Bhaijaan 2.
