Filmmaker Sriram Raghavan is considering returning to caper dramas with a sequel to his 2007 neo-noir crime thriller, "Johnny Gaddar."

Raghavan acknowledges the commercial benefits of sequels in today's market but insists that story quality must be paramount.

The casting for these potential films would depend on the story, with new actors potentially being introduced as characters in his previous films have often concluded their arcs.
