Arshad Warsi, who portrayed the role of Circuit, Munna’s beloved sidekick (played by Sanjay Dutt) in Munna Bhai MBBS and Lage Raho Munna Bhai, recently shared exciting updates on the much-anticipated third installment of the franchise, Munna Bhai 3.
Discussing the future of the series, Arshad told Bollywood Bubble, “I think that is also a possibility. The last time we sat together, there was a little meeting that Raju called for with Abhijat (co-writer Abhijat Joshi), Sanju (Sanjay Dutt) and me to decide what to do and all.We had a good discussion and he had three brilliant scripts. So Raju is pretty keen on doing a third film.”
Arshad also stressed the need for another part, stating, “I feel he should (make another part) because we were generally talking and I said, ‘Everything you start needs a closure and these two characters also need a closure. If you don’t, then they are dangling and everybody’s wondering what happened.’ So I think we might just do the third.”

Director Rajkumar Hirani also gave fans a glimmer of hope at The Indian Express event, revealing that he’s working on several scripts, including five different versions of Munna Bhai 3. He said, “I have five half-finished scripts for Munna Bhai. I spent six months on each, but they never went beyond the interval.” Hirani mentioned titles like Munna Bhai LLB, Munna Bhai Chal Base, and Munna Bhai Chale Amreeka.
The biggest challenge, according to Hirani, is ensuring the third film surpasses the previous ones. “It has to be better than the last. But I have a unique idea now. Of course, everything’s been done in 100 years of cinema, but I’m working on that idea.”
