The recent buzz is that after bagging such big honours, the film will be returning with a sequel.

Directed by Saket Chaudhary, who has earlier made franchise films like Pyaar Ke Side Effects and Shaadi Ke Side Effects, Hindi Medium dealt with the trials and tribulations of a couple from Chandni Chowk, who wanted their daughter to study in an English medium school.

It went on to become a super hit at the box office. Saba played the lead in the first part of the movie. However, according to numerous Indian publications, it is highly unlikely that the starlet will be coming back for the sequel.
