The stakes of the already successful Delhi Belly has become bigger, Aamir Khan who played the item boy, will now join Imran Khan, Vir and Kunaal in the sequel of Delhi Belly, that will be directed by Kiran Rao. If you recall as the final reel said, “Coming soon, Aamir Khan in and as Disco Fighter”. This seems to be the character of Aamir in the full-fledged sequel that is going to be the next installment of the Aamir Khan Films, production house.

The name of the sequel will be Disco Fighter, instead of Delhi Belly 2. Delhi Belly has earned more than Rs. 30 crore within the first week of release and is still going quite strong. The other thing to note is that it will be the first time ‘mama-bhanja’ will be seen together on screen. A source says, “The film will be titled Disco Fighter and Kiran Rao is currently writing it. When Delhi Belly was in the post-production phase, Aamir came up with the idea of making a sequel to the film.

Aamir, though not really an optimistic person by nature, was not really sure of the response Delhi Belly would generate. Since it was a different genre, it was a risky proposition. But now the verdict is out, the youth loved the film. Though it has not fared well with certain section of audience who are averse to bad language to toilet humor, the movie has not been ignored at all. In metros, Delhi Belly has got cult status from the youth.

Aamir had believed that if the film did well, he would go forward with the sequel. Though he wanted to direct the film, he has not been able to get the time, considering he is busy with Dhoom 3. So he asked wife Kiran Rao to take over the project. A source says, “The whole idea of the script is Aamir’s and he was just waiting for the verdict of Delhi Belly.” In fact, AK had already revealed to the media that Kiran Rao was working on a script for Aamir Khan Productions.

The source adds that the sequel will begin from where Delhi Belly ends, the Disco Fighter song and dance. “The film will take off from Aamir entering the film as Disco Fighter and the three boys will have an encounter with him. The details of the script are being worked out still,” added the source.
