No Singh Is Kinng 2 Without Akshay Kumar: Why Ranveer or Diljit Can’t Replace Him

Released in 2008, Singh Is Kinng is one of Bollywood's most iconic comedy films. Akshay Kumar's role as Happy Singh won hearts, creating unforgettable moments with his comedic timing and charm. Alongside Katrina Kaif, Akshay brought romance, humor, and excitement to the screen. The film’s catchy music and engaging storyline left a lasting impression on audiences.

Sequel Announcement Sparks Excitement and Speculation

Recently, producer Shailendra Singh announced plans for a sequel to Singh Is Kinng. However, he suggested casting either Ranveer Singh or Diljit Dosanjh instead of Akshay Kumar. This news spread quickly, sparking excitement about a fresh take on the beloved character. However, it also disappointed many fans who couldn’t imagine the film without Akshay Kumar reprising his iconic role as Happy Singh.

According to a recent report by Pinkvilla, casting someone else as Happy Singh may not be feasible. Sources revealed that Akshay Kumar holds 50% of the IP rights to Singh Is Kinng, making him essential to any sequel. If a second installment is to be made, producers would need Akshay’s involvement or a No Objection Certificate (NOC) from him. The report further stated, “Akshay and his team have no plans to give up the rights. They will only move forward if they have an excellent script.”

When Singh Is Bling was released in 2015, many believed it was a sequel to Singh Is Kinng. However, Akshay Kumar clarified that Singh Is Bling, directed by Prabhu Deva, was a completely separate project and had no connection to the original film. This added to the intrigue surrounding a possible sequel, with fans hoping for a continuation that truly captures the essence of Singh Is Kinng.

As producers and Akshay’s team consider the future of the franchise, the demand for a powerful storyline and Akshay’s presence is evident.
