MUMBAI: Fardeen Khan, Salman Khan, and Anil Kapoor delighted viewers with their comedic timing in the 2005 film No Entry. Naturally, fans believed the three stars would return for No Entry 2 as soon as thoughts of a sequel surfaced. In contrast, the filmmakers chose to cast Arjun Kapoor, Diljit Dosanjh, and Varun Dhawan as new-age actors for the sequel. Fardeen recently stated in an interview that he is not in the movie and that he has no ill feelings for its makers.

Fardeen stated speaking with the popular news portal, “The talk of No Entry has been going on for so long. I think we have been discussing it in 2014-2015. I have been in touch with Boney Kapoor and Salman Khan, and I heard that it was happening in 6 months and then 8 months. So, there was this anticipation, the audience’s love for the movie, our love for our characters, everything worked really well, and we were all excited to be part of the sequel.”
Fardeen Khan also stated that he thought the sequel's script was humorous after reading it. “Anees Bazmee has written a hysterical script. When I heard it, I couldn’t stop laughing. Of course, it was disappointing that it didn’t work out, but that happens sometimes. It is what it is. I have only love for Boney and the new casting, and I wish them all the best. It’s a great franchise; just don’t mess it up, then I will be upset,” he said.
Producer Boney Kapoor revealed in March that actor and brother Anil Kapoor is upset with him for not including him in No Entry 2. He stated, “Before I could tell my brother Anil about the No Entry sequel and the cast involved, he got angry as the news was already leaked. It was unfortunate that it was leaked. I know he wanted to be part of the No Entry sequel, but there was no space. I wanted to explain why I did what I did.”
Although the original film focused on philandering men, it has been revealed that Varun Dhawan, Diljit Dosanjh, and Arjun Kapoor will play double roles in the sequel.
