Shashank said, “We are delighted with the response. We are getting a lot of encouragement. After seeing the film, the audience is coming out of the theatres with happy faces. I am really keen to make the third instalment of the ‘…Dulhania’ franchise.”

“But till now, what will be the story and when will we start it… That hasn’t been decided yet,” he added.

When the filmmaker was asked which actor he wants to work with, he said, “I wanted to work with everyone in the industry but my main focus is to write a good script and then approach the actor who is best suitable for the role. If I approach Aamir Khan first, he would be asking for a good script, which I don’t have (at the moment).”
