Ever since Salman Khan's No Entry released in 2005 and performed exceptionally at the box-office, there have been constant murmurs of a sequel. Though there is nothing rolling right now, director Anees Bazmee had confirmed to a daily a few months back that it is very much happening and Salman would be having a double role in it.

"Salman Khan has loved the script of No Entry Mein Entry. I have a great rapport with him and in this film, he will be seen in a double role. I don’t know where the news of shelving is coming from. I am giving the final touches to the script. I got busy with shooting Mubarakan but now we are back on track. We will have to work on his dates though," said Anees to a popular daily.

However, yesterday, a leading trade magazine carried that Khan has opted out of the movie and Hrithik Roshan has been approached for the movie. Incidentally, this rumour had sprung up a few months back too but Hrithik had slammed the reports.

When we read these reports in the magazine, we got in touch with director Anees Bazmee to get some details on it. When asked, Anees said, "These are all false reports. I have not approached or met Hrithik Roshan for it. I am currently busy with the post production work of Mubarakan."

Mubarakan is slated to release on July 28, 2017, and stars Arjun Kapoor, Anil Kapoor, Athiya Shetty and Ileana D'Cruz in the lead. The movie will see Arjun Kapoor in a double role as Charan and Karan.
