While Dibakar Banerjee’s Khosla Ka Ghosla was the 1st runner up, Rakesh Omprakash Mehra Rang De Basanti was 2nd runner up with 17, 326 and 15, 652 votes respectively.
CNN-IBNs entertainment editor Rajeev Masand caught up with the director Rajkumar Hirani, the producer, Vidhu Vinod Chopra and Munnabhai himself for their reactions after winning the poll.
Hirani said, “I was very scared about the film, but Sanju (Sanjay Dutt) and Vinod were confident.”
But did Vidhu Vinod know the sequel was better and bigger than Munnabhai MBBS?
“I knew it was better. But I wasn’t bothered about it being bigger,” he said.
Munna on the other hand wants to play the character of Munnabhai till he is 80 years old he says.
“Munnabhai was straight from my heart. It was woven very well,” Dutt said.
Vidhu Vinod added, “The character of Munnabhai should never die. As long as Sanju is alive, we will continue making Munnabhai.”
So do the audience pin their hopes on Munnabhai Part III?
“We are writing the script and it’s growing. We want Munna and Circuit to go to America,” Hirani says.
