Anil Kapoor on Mr India sequel

The actor was asked about the sequel at the International Indian Film Academy (IIFA) awards ceremony

Veteran actor Anil Kapoor, on the fate of a probable Mr India sequel, say it will happen when it has to happen, and that Sridevi and Amrish Puri are surely missed.

At the green carpet of the 19th edition of the International Indian Film Academy (IIFA) Awards on Sunday, Anil was asked about the sequel of the 1987 entertainer.

He said, "Every film has its own destiny. And when it's going to happen, it's will happen."

There were talks that Anil and Sridevi would be back for the follow-up of the film, originally directed by Shekhar Kapur. Short on words over his co-actor and sister-in-law Sridevi's demise earlier this year, Anil said, "We will miss her, we will miss Amrish Puri, Mogambo... But life goes on. We miss all of them and we will try our best to follow their legacy."

The actor, who has clocked 35 years in the film industry and whose latest release is Race 3, is now looking forward to Fanney Khan which comes out on August 3.
