Khal Nayak, starring Sanjay Dutt, Madhuri Dixit, and Jackie Shroff, hit the theaters more than three decades back. Fans have been demanding a sequel of this classic cult since then. Filmmaker Subhash Ghai, who had been hinting at a potential sequel for a long time, has finally given a major update on it and we bet fans are going to absolutely love it. He shared that the scripting of Khak Nayak 2 has been completed and the cast and crew will soon be finalized.
In a recent chat with ETimes, filmmaker Subhash Ghai, who directed the original Khal Nayak in 1993, shared, 'Yes, the script is complete now and the rest of the cast and technicians will soon be finalized.'
Earlier, a source informed Filmfare that the director is excited about Khal Nayak's sequel. The report added that the film will also have newcomers playing the lead roles. However, Madhuri Dixit and Sanjay Dutt will be cast for cameo appearances. The project is already in the works.
Meanwhile, back in 2024, Subhash Ghai opened up about rumors of recasting Ballu and clarified that Sanjay Dutt will only play the iconic role. He said that he isn't looking for actors to play Ballu Balram but young actors to play new roles in the sequel. The filmmaker added that the young cast will be pitted against Ballu (played by Sanjay).
For the unversed, Khal Nayak has become a cult classic over the years. The 1993 film became a major hit upon its release with Sanjay Dutt, Madhuri Dixit, and Jackie Shroff in key roles.
With its daring take on themes of sin and salvation, combined with unforgettable tracks like Choli Ke Peeche, the film became a landmark in pop culture.
Even today, Khal Nayak stands tall as a defining work in the journeys of Sanjay, Madhuri, and director Subhash Ghai. Anticipation is high to find out what filmmaker Subhash Ghai has planned for the upcoming Khal Nayak sequel.

Meet Rinke Khanna, younger daughter of Rajesh Khanna and Dimple Kapadia, worked in films, quit acting 21 years ago, here's how she looks now

With a face full of innocence and the weight of a film legacy, Rinke Khanna entered Bollywood in 1999 with Pyaar Mein Kabhi Kabhi. She played a character named Khushi, and her songs, especially 'Musu Musu Hasi Deu' and 'Woh Pehli Baar', became instant hits. The film may not have set the box office on fire, but Rinke's performance earned her a Filmfare nomination for Best Female Debut. She was the daughter of two legends, Rajesh Khanna and Dimple Kapadia, and sister to Twinkle Khanna. Stardom seemed only natural. But it didn't pan out that way. Who did she act with before quitting? Despite her promising start, Rinke appeared in only nine films. She shared the screen with big names, Govinda in Jis Desh Mein Ganga Rehta Hai, Salman Khan in Yeh Hai Jalwa, and Tusshar Kapoor in Mujhe Kucch Kehna Hai. She even did a Tamil film Majunu, and featured in offbeat titles like Mango Soufflé, Jhankaar Beats, Chameli, and Pran Jaaye Par Shaan Na Jaaye. Her last appearance was in 2004's Chameli, where she played a supporting role to Kareena Kapoor. And then—silence. Why did she step away from the spotlight? After a lukewarm run in Bollywood, Rinke quietly exited the scene. In 2003, she married businessman Sameer Saran and moved to London. She shifted focus from scripts to family. The camera never found its way back into her life. Why is her name suddenly trending again? Recently, during the premiere of Akshay Kumar's 'Sky Force', all eyes were on a fresh face, Naomika Saran, Rinke's daughter. Social media buzzed about her resemblance to her mother and grandmother Dimple Kapadia. Naomika's poise, simplicity, and grace reminded many of Rinke's early days. That one event brought Rinke Khanna back into conversations. She was also spotted recently in Mumbai alongside her mother, sparking rumours about whether the family might be preparing Naomika for a debut of her own.
