Highlights
- With Tanu Weds Manu faring well at the box office, Madhavan is keen to act in a sequel to the film. However, director Aanand Rai has no such plans.
- While Madhavan, the film's male lead, is initiating concrete moves to carry forward the story of the fiery Tanu and the sober Manu, director Rai has refused to make a sequel. Madhavan has reportedly even worked out the plot of the sequel, which he wants to set in London.
- Madhavan said, "According to me, the sequel should look at Tanu and Manu's personality from a completely different perspective to that of the original film. While, Tanu Weds Manu charmed audiences, the sequel, in my head, will shock them."
- However, Rai does not want to direct a sequel. The director says, "No matter what others say, I am not doing a sequel. I know the temptation to carry forward a successful film is immense. But very honestly, I have carried Tanu and Manu's story as far as I wanted to. I have nothing more to say about their lives."
- When asked about Madhavan's keenness, Rai said, "I have lots of other ideas I want to direct with Madhavan and Kangna Ranaut. But like I said, I'm done with Tanu and Manu's story."
