Taapsee Pannu’s Haseen Dillruba franchise has gained a lot of praise ever since its debut on Netflix in 2021. It was a thrilling mix of romance and crime & was so much liked by the audiences that it became a huge hit. Alongside Pannu, Vikrant Massey and Harshvardhan Rane also played pivotal roles, with the film’s gripping storyline and dramatic twists captivating viewers.
Following its success, the makers of Haseen Dillruba rolled out a sequel, Phir Aayi Haseen Dillruba, earlier this year. Like its predecessor, the second instalment also found a massive audience on the OTT platform & topped the charts. This time, Sunny Kaushal replaced Harshvardhan Rane after his character was killed off in the first film.
Now, Industry insiders have revealed that the makers of Haseen Dillruba are now seriously considering releasing the third installment in theatres, instead of following the OTT route again.
