During an interview with Variety India, the director revealed that he is actively working on ideas and scripts for both Munna Bhai 3 and a sequel to the 2009 blockbuster 3 Idiots. "I have a couple of ideas at the moment. I’m actually working on both films. I’ve been working on a Munna Bhai script and also on a 3 Idiots sequel idea. For Munna Bhai, I had an idea, which is done to a larger level, but still, I haven’t found the right end for it," he revealed.

Speaking about the 3 Idiots sequel, which featured Aamir Khan, R. Madhavan, Sharman Joshi, Kareena Kapoor Khan, and Boman Irani in key roles, Hirani said, "For the 3 Idiots sequel, it was just very recently that suddenly, out of nowhere, this one idea sparked up. I have no idea how it’s gone out in the universe because it’s still not there, but we said we’ll work on it."

In December last year, reports surfaced that the filmmaker was planning a sequel, tentatively titled 4 Idiots, with Aamir Khan, Madhavan, and Sharman Joshi reprising their roles.

For now, the script is in its early stages.

He also spoke candidly about Munna Bhai 3, the beloved franchise starring Sanjay Dutt and Arshad Warsi. Hirani confirmed that he has a larger-scale idea in place, but the ending of the film is yet to be confirmed. "I had an idea for Munna Bhai, which is on a larger scale. But I still haven’t found the right ending," he said.

The Munna Bhai series, which started with Munna Bhai MBBS (2003) and Lage Raho Munna Bhai in 2006, went on to achieve a cult status.

Hirani is also said to be working on Dadasaheb Phalke biopic with Aamir Khan, but as per recent reports, the project has been put on hold due to script-related concerns.
