Munna Bhai Chale Dilli, the tentative title of the
third Munna Bhai film of the popular Bollywood franchise, will be directed
by Subhash Kapoor.
The earlier films in the franchise -Munna Bhai
M.B.B.S. and Lage Raho Munnabhai- were directed by Rajkumar Hirani
under the Vidhu Vinod Chopra Films Pvt Ltd. banner.
Now, Kapoor, who has earlier helmed Phas Gaye Re Obama and
also the upcoming Jolly L.L.B, has taken over, said a statement.
Chopra, Hirani and co-writer Abhijat Joshi jointly feel that
Kapoor is perfect to take the franchise to another level. They are especially
confident after watching the special screening of Jolly L.L.B., a satire
on the country's judiciary system.
"After seeing Subhash's work and discussing his
thoughts and ideas, Raju, Abhijat and I collectively felt that we have, after a
long search, found an individual with the right sensibility and approach to
work with us in taking forward the 'Munna Bhai' franchise," Chopra said in
a statement.
"I am pleased to welcome Subhash Kapoor into the Vinod
Chopra Films family as the director of the next 'Munna Bhai' film," he
added.
