Mr. India was a superhero film, and apart from Anil Kapoor and Sridevi, it featured Amrish Puri in a pivotal role. The late veteran actor played the role of Mogambo in the movie, and his dialogue ‘Mogambo Khush Hua’ is one of the most iconic dialogues in the history of Hindi cinema.
Also, when we talk about Mr. India, how can we forget the songs, Kate Nahin Kat Te and Hawa Hawai. Sridevi performed wonderfully in both tracks.
In 2020, Ali Abbas Zafar had announced that he will be making a film titled Mr. India. He had then tweeted, “Excited to partner with @ZeeStudios_ for an epic trilogy #MrIndia! It is a huge responsibility to carry forward an iconic character loved by everyone. Currently, working on the script, no actor has been locked till now. Once we lock the first draft of the script, casting begins!” While everyone thought that the movie will be a remake or a sequel to the 1987 release Mr. India, later, Ali had cleared that his film has no connection with Anil Kapoor and Sridevi starrer.
