Now that Abbas Tyrewala’s Jaane Tu… Ya Jaane Na, has given audience characters that they’d like to carry home, the film is being touted as a hit.
The result is predictable. Its film-makers are reportedly already thinking of a sequel to this bubblegum romance. Says Imran Khan, the hero of the film, “We used to joke about it on the sets all the time and even decided to name the sequel Jaane 2… If my director Abbas wants to do a sequel we could, but it would depend entirely on the script. Take the case of the American serial Friends, it was very interesting when it began, but it dragged on for 10 years. Abbas used every cliché connected with romantic films and turned it into something exciting.”
Meanwhile, director Abbas Tyrewala fights shy of revealing any immediate plans for a sequel. He says, “I can barely keep myself focused on one idea for the length of a film. For me the story I would enjoy telling comes first. It would then be fascinating enough to explore how their lives turned out. At the moment, I would like to make an adult romantic comedy where the disasters that occur in the lives of the characters are closer to the ones in real lives. Jaane Tu… is the most naïve film I have ever written and that I’ll make.”
