19 Years Later, Madhavan Is All For A Rehnaa Hai Terre Dil Mein Sequel

On October 19,  2019   Madhavan made  his Bollywood debut with Rehnaa Hai Teree Dil Mein . It  was  a first in Bollywood for many including Madhavan, leading lady Dia Mirza, director Gautham  Menon and music director  Harris Jayaraj .

 Unfortunately  the  film was  not  a pleasant experience for  many of the principal  team-members. Apparently  director Gautham Menon couldn’t get  along with Madhavan  and producer   could  not see eye to eye with the  director.It  was  also not a cherishable  experience for  many members  of  the team. The film was somehow completed. But the marketing sucked.

Like the film itself,  Harris Jayraj’s chartbusting songs got their due only in  hindsight.

Says Madhavan “I  don’t want to get into what went wrong. But yes, many things  did go wrong.All of us  worked really hard  on  the  film. 19 years later Rehnaa Hai Terre Dil  Mein is still among  the  most favourite  films   of my  repertoire.”

Madhavan is  not averse  to a sequel.  “I  keep getting that  all the time.  But is  a sequel possible now? For that  to happen,all of us have to be on  the same page. I’d love to take  the story forward  from where we  left  it  off 19 years ago.”

Gautam who also directed the Tamil  original Minnale , says, “I don’t at all  mind directing the sequel to Rehna Hai Terre Dil Mein. If the  producers ask me, I will.”
