It’ll be made in the same way, retaining the innocence of the characters.”
He also added, “We can’t take past achievements for granted. So, we have to be extra careful in terms of our content, story, screenplay, characters, mannerism etc. We have shortlisted somebody. We are in talks. We’ll make the announcement soon.”
