Known as the true showman of Bollywood, filmmaker Subhash Ghai recently left Sanjay Dutt fans excited as he opened up further about a sequel to the actor’s much loved film Khal Nayak. Although years ago, Ghai had told Bollywood Hungama about working on a script for the sequel, recently reports claimed that he has already locked the star cast for this romantic-action drama, which originally featured Dutt with Madhuri Dixit and Jackie Shroff. However, he recently took to social media to clarify on the reports, asserting that the film may be on the cards but there has been no update on the star cast.
