Salman Khan took his fans by surprise during a promotional event for RRR last month, when he announced that a sequel to Bajrangi Bhaijaan (2015) is in the works. As it turns out, the sentiment was not restricted to the superstar’s admirers alone. The news about Pawan Putra Bhaijaan — as Khan has christened the sequel — came as a bolt from the blue for KV Vijayendra Prasad, the veteran writer who penned the much-loved 2015 hit. “Salman’s announcement came as a total surprise,” laughs Prasad, well aware of Khan’s spontaneous nature.
