Imtiaz Ali opens up about possibility of 'Jab We Met' sequel

Imtiaz Ali, who is preparing for the release of Amar Singh Chamkila, discussed the potential for a sequel to his iconic film Jab We Met.

In an exclusive interview with Pinkvilla, the 52-year-old film director discussed his upcoming projects after completing his film Amar Singh Chamkila.

Regarding queries about potential sequels like Love Aaj Kal 3 and Jab We Met 2, Imtiaz said, “Well, no. No Love Aaj Kal 3, no Jab We Met 2 as of now. I don't know whether I should ever make a sequel but let's see.”

"I never say never but no plan as of now. But then yes I have 3 scripts that I am now crazily desperate to start getting onto making. I can't wait to start filming again,” the Tamasha director added.

Imtiaz also expressed his views on the changing landscape of cinema, underscoring the impact of audience preferences. 

He stressed the enduring pursuit of innovation among viewers, saying, “It is always changing and always constant. What is constant is the fact that a new good unique thing comes and the audience laps it up."

"They don't want to see something they’ve seen before. They don't want to waste their time," Imtiaz added.
