Saif Ali Khan plans ‘Agent Vinod’ sequel in 3D

Mumbai:  After opening to an approximate collection of over Rs100 million at the box office, actor-producer Saif Ali Khan says he might plan a sequel to the spy thriller ‘Agent Vinod’, and that too in 3D.

“I don’t understand 3D and don’t enjoy it, but my son does. So, maybe for the larger portion of audiences, one should consider it for sequel,” Hindustan Times reported.

“I didn’t consider going for it this time. There was some talk earlier though. If it becomes a big action movie, then it is a good idea to shoot it in 3D,” he added.

Saif says if at all a sequel takes shape, the character of Vinod will be staple.

“It will be the same Vinod with another cast for the sequels if at all it comes. It is too early to discuss right now,” the 41-year-old said.

Agent Vinod, directed by Sriram Raghavan, borrows it’s name from the 1977 film of the same name and is produced by Saif Ali Khan and Dinesh Vijan. The movie stars Saif Ali Khan and Kareena Kapoor in leading roles and also features Prem Chopra, Ram Kapoor, Anshuman Singh, Shahbaz Khan, Gulshan Grover and Maryam Zakaria in supporting roles.
