Hunt's on for Mogambo in Mr. India sequel

The hit 1987 film, Mr.India, was a huge hit at the box-office and now so after 21 years the makers have decided to make the sequel to the film. The original Arun (Anil Kapoor) and Seema(Sri Devi) have been finalized. But now the directors and producers are looking for their Mogambo which was originally played by the late Amrish Puri.
"The sequel is still in the scripting stage. This film will be heavily loaded by special effects. There are two couples – the older couple will be Anil Kapoor and Sri Devi and the young couple's casting process is on. We will have decided on them in the next three months or so once Anurag (Basu) completes Kites," says the source, "While the other casting is still not finalized as we are in talks with Aftab Shivdasani as he was a part of Mr. India as well."

However, the most difficulty the crew is having is in casting someone to replace Amrish Puri as Mogambo.

"Amrish Puri is still fresh in everyone's mind and so we need someone who can match up to him. We need someone who will be a lot more cunning and evil," says the source.
