Late legendary actor-filmmaker Dev Anand's grandson Rishi Anand is set to make his Bollywood debut with the remake of Govinda-starrer Saajan Chale Sasural. Saajan Chale Sasural 2 will also feature actors Chunkey Pandey, Arya Babbar, Hemant Pandey, Sonal Monteiro and Ishita Raj in pivotal roles. It will be produced by Mansoor Ahmed Siddiqui, who had earlier produced the original film.
"I am very excited. It's too early to comment anything more on the film," Rishi said in a statement to a news agency. Sajan Chale Sasural -- a romance-comedy film which starred Govinda, Karisma Kapoor, Tabu, late Kader Khan and Satish Kaushik -- released in 1996. It was helmed by David Dhawan.
