Delhi Belly 2 Talks: Director Abhinay Deo Eyes Sequel with Aamir Khan

Summary
- Director Abhinay Deo discusses Delhi Belly 2 possibilities weekly.
- Aamir Khan is involved in ongoing discussions about the sequel.
- Sequel faces challenges with potential removal of abusive language.
Director Abhinay Deo is actively pursuing a sequel to the 2011 cult hit "Delhi Belly," reportedly discussing the possibility with producer Aamir Khan on a monthly basis.
Deo admits he brainstorms ideas for "Delhi Belly 2" every week. However, significant challenges stand in the way of its production. Chief among these is the potential acquisition of UTV by Disney, which could lead to demands for a "clean" version of the film, a prospect Deo finds antithetical to "Delhi Belly's" identity.
Another hurdle is the writing process, as "Delhi Belly" writer Akshat Verma reportedly took nine years to complete the original script. Deo is in regular contact with Khan, who directs him to pursue Verma for the script. Deo also confirmed he recently spoke with actor Imran Khan about a different film project, though scheduling conflicts prevented it.
