Such has been the appeal of Mr India (1987) that the film's dialogues are excitedly mouthed by ardent fans even 32 years after its release. Last year, after the untimely demise of Sridevi, producer husband Boney Kapoor and actor Anil Kapoor announced that they had aborted the plan of a sequel to the superhero film.

However, a year later, the two seem to have had a change of heart. Only days after Anil and director Shekhar Kapur posted cryptic messages on social media, hinting at another collaboration, Boney tells mid-day that a reboot of Mr India is on the cards.
