It's the era of remakes, sequels and biopics! And the latest classic to get a sequel is 1994 cult comedy Andaz Apna Apna.

Earlier it was reported that Ranveer Singh and Ranbir Kapoor will be taking place as Amar, Prem in Rajkumar Santoshi hemled hit.

However, now if the rumours are to be trusted, instead of Ranbir, Varun Dhawan has been approached to star in the sequel.

But there's a twist! According to Pinkvilla, sequel will be with different characters and in a different story.

A source told the entertainment website, "The producers Vinay and Priti Sinha are planning to do Andaz Apna Apna - it won’t be a sequel or remake. Nor will Raj Kumar Santoshi direct it. While they have not decided yet what exactly it will be, they are sure it won’t be a remake or sequel but something as exciting."

The source further went on, "Raj Kumar Santoshi’s Andaz Apna Apna, starring Aamir Khan, Salman Khan, Raveena Tandon and Karisma Kapoor, was a cult movie and one cannot mess with the original. One should not touch such a great film and that too 25 years later and destroy it by a remake or sequel. The director is yet to be finalised."

The source added, "Ranveer and Varun have been approached to play Amar and Prem for their comic flair, who again will be happy-go-lucky characters but not the same ones we saw in the 1994 movie. Both are good friends off screen and will be able to carry off their roles with ease. This will be set in 2019 and promises to be another laugh riot yet with underlying emotions. The iconic character of Crime Master Gogo (played by Shakti Kapoor earlier) will also make a comeback with a contemporary actor and his character will be more stylised and modern."
