Farhan Akhtar is making the sequel with SRK and Priyanka in the lead.
This will be the first time in Bollywood history that a sequel to a remake is being made.
The screenplay is being written and other actors are being considered for pivotal roles, reports say.
Reports further add that this time on, the production will have to be much more spectacular and embellished with superb effects.
