Mudassir Aziz is back with the sequel to ‘Happy Bhaag Jayegi’ that released in 2016. In the first installment, we have seen Diana Penty, Jimmy Sheirgill, Ali Fazal, Piyush Mishra, and Abhay Deol whereas in the second part Sonakshi Sinha and Jassi Gill are the new additions. Diana is playing the role of Harpreet while Sonakshi is playing the character Navpreet.
In an interview with filmymantra.com when Sonakshi was asked about playing the new ‘Happy’ in the movie, she said, “I was approached to play a new role. It is a new role, not the same role Diana played in the first part. I am completely in a different role in the movie. My name could have very well been Lovely but the confusion is because both these girls names are the same.”
On working with Diana the actress said, “It was lovely. In fact, the entire cast has got along so well and it was like ‘Haste Haste Kat Jaye Raste’. The entire shoot was amazing and lots of fun.”
‘Happy Bhaag Jayegi’ was a sleeper hit at the box office by raking in Rs 28.19 crore at the domestic market. Produced by Aanand L Rai and Krishika Lulla, the rom-com will hit the screens on August 24, 2018.
