[tps_header]It’s been confirmed that the much-lauded, critically acclaimed and two time winner for the Best Actor and Best Film at the Jio Filmfare Awards 2018, Hindi Medium is getting a SEQUEL! And there is no denying that, amidst the political myopia and artist ban between Pakistan and India, Hindi Medium was a breath of fresh air, and so was the pairing of Irfan Khan and Saba Qamar. Don’t you think? If you still haven’t seen Hindi Medium yet, the film was a satirical take on the education system of India, which absolutely made sense because the emphasis is on the English language. So, the trials and tribulations of a couple from Chandni Chowk to Delhi’s elite society was a treat to watch.
Confirming the development, producer Bhushan Kumar says, “The script is ready and we are starting pre-production of the film. Hindi Medium was my first award as a producer. People loved the film and Irrfan is also ready. We will be going on the floors once the preparatory work is complete.”
Now that a statement has been released, we think Saba might not be reprising her role as Mita because of the Pakistan-India Artist Ban, and it would even be completely justified if her character is tweaked, because it’s a sequel after all, and characters change. So here are, what we think, actors who we think could fit in the role of Mita in the Hindi Medium sequel.[/tps_header]
DEEPIKA PADUKONE
And why not? She was brilliant in Piku, has played off beat characters like Angelina in Finding Fanny, and she certainly has chemistry with Irfan Khan.
