Multiple outlets report that Katrina Kaif is being considered for a possible comeback with “Chandni Bar 2,” a sequel to Madhur Bhandarkar’s 2001 film “Chandni Bar,” which starred Tabu. The original film is reported to be the basis for the sequel, which was announced last year, and sources cited by outlets say the project’s director is Ajay Bahl. While makers have not confirmed the cast, a report citing industry information indicates Katrina’s name may appear on the final casting list, with Tabu also expected to be part of the film. The reports add that there is no official confirmation yet from the production team. Separate coverage referenced by one source also notes that earlier claims about Katrina’s acting plans—previously tied to OTT projects—were disputed by an industry insider, who said such reporting was based on speculation. Katrina’s most recent release is described as “Merry Christmas” (2024), and she is reported to be on a maternity break following the birth of her first child with Vicky Kaushal in November.
