The power packed combo of director Sujoy Ghosh and super talented Vidya Balan will be back again soon with the sequel of their hit thriller ‘Kahaani’.

According to sources, the filmmaker who is in UK preparing ‘Kahaani 2’ script will start shooting of the film next year. While Vidya will again play the lead, the other actors from the original will be in the sequel as well.

In an interview Sujoy said that Vidya was the sole reason he wrote ‘Kahaani’; so there is no doubt she will be there in its sequel also.

Initially Sujoy said to have other project plans but then he turned his interests towards ‘Kahaani 2’ and now is busy finishing the script. It is said that the new version will have several mystery elements. While the original was set against the backdrop of Kolkata, nothing is finalised about the location of the sequel.

"Location has not been decided as such but quite a bit of the film will be shot in Kolkata for sure. We are taking forward the same characters so let's see how it shapes up," quoted the director in a press interview.

‘Kahaani’ released on 9th March 2012, was made on mere Rs.8 crore budget. But surprisingly it grabbed rave reviews and became a huge success to earn nearly Rs.104 crore worldwide within 50 days of its release.
