Shahid Kapoor In Talks To Join No Entry 2
According to Bollywood Hungama, discussions have already begun between the makers and Shahid Kapoor. The report also suggests that Varun Dhawan remains locked as one of the three leads. As quoted in the report, “While Varun Dhawan is locked to play one of the three leads, the makers have initiated a conversation with Shahid Kapoor. The actor has heard the basic idea and will soon take the complete narration.”
The source further added a key detail about the film’s direction. “It’s No Entry but with a twist. Producer Boney Kapoor is trying to take things a notch higher by getting Varun and Shahid together,” a source further shared with the portal.
The sequel has gone through multiple lineup changes. Earlier, Varun Dhawan, Diljit Dosanjh, and Arjun Kapoor were expected to headline the project. However, Diljit later exited the film. Since then, speculation has continued around the final cast.
Boney Kapoor On No Entry Sequel
Producer Boney Kapoor has already confirmed that the film is moving ahead with changes. He stated, “We are making No Entry Mein Entry, and Varun and Arjun are very much in the film. We are in active discussions to lock our other hero and the rest of the cast.” Boney Kapoor had also shared a production update. He revealed that shooting is expected to begin in June 2025. He added that the sequel aims to surpass the original film in scale and entertainment value.
Boney Kapoor also addressed the casting overhaul in an interview with Instant Bollywood. He said, “Poori star cast hi humne change ki. Toh ye humara loss hai that we could not retain the same star cast. We waited for almost 8-10 years, but somehow things didn’t happen. We will miss them. And now we are trying to give a fresh start with a younger lot of actors. But at the same time, we will miss Salman, we will miss Anil and Fardeen. They were the original three boys in No Entry. And they were the most loved.”
In conclusion, No Entry 2 continues to evolve with new casting developments and creative changes. While Shahid Kapoor’s involvement is not confirmed yet, ongoing discussions indicate that the makers are aiming for a refreshed and star-studded reboot of the popular franchise.
