MUMBAI: Merry Christmas is among the latest Bollywood offerings. The film presented unusual pairing of Katrina Kaif and Vijay Sethupathi with an unusual storyline. The movie received only positive reviews from all corners.
The film is helmed by ace director Sriram Raghavan who is known for movies like Andhadhun, Badlapur, Ikkis and many more. As the movie is receiving accolades from the viewers, one wonders if Merry Christmas will have a sequel. In a recent interview, Sriram Raghavan commented on the same.
In a conversation with IndiaToday.com, Sriram Raghvan confirmed that there will be no sequel to Katrina Kaif and Vijay Sethupathi's Merry Christmas. He said that he had planned to make a small movie and he would like to keep it there.
He further added," I think of what will happen but will it be dramatically interesting? Is it worth showing or is it best to be left with the feeling of it’s a Christmas special and what you feel is more important and that is something that needs to stay."
He also revealed how he came up with the title of the film. Sriram Raghavan revealed that he was thinking of names with 'Raat' in it but it was the producer of Ikkis who suggested Merry Christmas.
Talking about the box office numbers, Merry Christmas that released on January 12 took a slow start. However, it picked over the weekend thanks to the positive word of mouth. On the first day it made around Rs 2.45 crore at the box office as reported by Sacnilk.com.
