Believe it or not, but sequels are a lucrative business and have done wonders in Bollywood lately. They are a safe bet for the filmmakers who want to cash in on the huge success of their past films and make a lot of moolah at the ticket window with sequels. Like 2017, which saw the release of breakout sequels like Badrinath Ki Dulhania, Judwaa 2, Golmaal Again, Fukrey Returns and Tiger Zinda Hai, 2018 is also going to be littered with a lot of sequels, in addition to a series of biopics. Here, we have rounded up the list of Bollywood sequels to look forward to in 2018.
1921
Starring Karan Kundra and Zareen Khan, 1921 is the fourth movie in the 1920 film series, the previous ones being 1920, 1920 Evil Returns and 1920 London.
