A sequel to romcom Ishq Vishk in the offing

Bollywood buffs are going to see many sequels and remakes in 2019 and 2020. Looking at the frequency at which new sequels and remakes are being announced in B-town, we can safely say the trend is here to stay.

Now a new sequel has been confirmed. After 16 years of its release, Tips Films’ Ishq Vishk (2003) is set for a sequel. The movie, directed by Ken Ghosh, launched Shahid Kapoor and Amrita Rao in Bollywood and was one of the biggest hits of 2003.


Producer Ramesh Taurani, who produced the film, confirmed the development. “Yes, we are making a sequel to Ishq Vishk. The story is in the scripting stage and could be about a teenage romance. Hopefully, in the next two-three months, we will lock the script and start looking for the director and cast,” said the director.

Just like the original film, the sequel will also feature fresh faces. Since Ken Ghosh is busy with other commitments, a new director will be signed to helm the sequel.

'Vishwanath And Sons' review: An unlikely Suriya-Mamitha Baiju romance gives this family drama its spark

Highlights

  • Suriya and Mamitha Baiju bring an easy charm to an unconventional romance
  • The film avoids turning its age gap and surrogacy into predictable sources of conflict
  • The first half balances comedy, romance and family drama effectively
  • The second half becomes more emotional, stretched and predictable

There is something refreshing about a family film that does not turn every difference between its central characters into a problem. Vishwanath And Sons finds much of its charm in the unusual pairing of Suriya and Mamitha Baiju, allowing their relationship to develop without making the age gap or surrogacy the obvious source of conflict.

Directed by Venky Atluri, the Tamil-Telugu drama follows Sanjay Vishwanath (Suriya), a wealthy businessman in his 40s who has deliberately stayed away from marriage. He lives with his mother Nirmala Devi (Radhika Sarathkumar), who repeatedly tries to find him a suitable partner. Sanjay is also an Olympic medal-winning pistol shooter, giving him a life beyond his business success.
