Bollywood’s much-loved Munna Bhai franchise is finally making headlines again. Nearly two decades after Lage Raho Munna Bhai (2006), the third installment, Munna Bhai 3, is reportedly in the works.
Actor Arshad Warsi, known for his iconic role as Circuit, confirmed that director Rajkumar Hirani is actively working on the script. This marks the return of one of India’s most celebrated comedy duos Munna (Sanjay Dutt) and Circuit.
The first film, Munna Bhai M.B.B.S. (2003), blended humour with heart, delivering powerful social messages in a lighthearted way. Its sequel, Lage Raho Munna Bhai, popularised the concept of “Gandhigiri” and became a cultural phenomenon, earning critical praise and massive box office success.
Now, with Munna Bhai 3 in development, fans are thrilled to see what fresh theme Hirani brings to the story. Arshad hinted that the new film will adapt to modern audiences while retaining the warmth and wit of the originals.
Social media is buzzing with excitement as fans share nostalgic clips and stills of Sanjay Dutt and Arshad Warsi. While some industry voices question the timing of the announcement, most agree that the franchise’s return could unite old fans and Gen Z viewers alike.
As the team works quietly behind the scenes, all eyes are on Rajkumar Hirani to see what social issue the next Munna Bhai will address with the same humour, heart, and humanity that made the first two films unforgettable.
