Along with the original cast members of the '3 Idiots' team, including Aamir Khan, Farhan Akhtar, and Sharman Joshi, a fourth actor is likely to join them for the sequel, tentatively titled '4 Idiots', a Pinkvilla report said, citing a source.
While the fourth actor has not been finalized yet, Kareena Kapoor will be reprising her role as Priya in the second installment. The makers are currently on the lookout for the fourth star to join the movie.
“The script is currently being developed under a tentative working title, '4 Idiots'. While this title is still subject to change, the makers are looking out for a superstar to expand the iconic franchise beyond its original trio. The makers are actively searching for a fourth idiot... could be a superstar name," the source told Pinkvilla.
The report added that the writing process for '4 Idiots' is underway. “The team is making sure it gets bigger and better and continues from where it was left in the first part. Yet, this isn’t just a simple continuation but will also be introducing new elements to justify the addition of a fourth core character."
Directed by Rajkumar Hirani, the 2009 film '3 Idiots' was both a critical and commercial triumph, grossing close to Rs 400 crore worldwide. The story followed the deep friendship of three engineering students and explored their personal growth during college, touching upon themes of pressure, passion and purpose.
