Will Saif Ali Khan reprise his role in the spin-off?

The source shared that the makers have kept the casting details under wraps and would be revealed only after the script is locked. “That’s a secret, which will unravel once the script is locked. Saif Ali Khan might just make a return to the world of Omkara, or the makers could rope in a young actor to play the part, making it a reboot in a true sense,” concluded the source.

Meanwhile, the actor is busy shooting for Haiwaan with Akshay Kumar in Kochi. Helmed by Priyadarshan, the film also stars Shriya Pilgaonkar, Mohanlal and Saiyami Kher in pivotal roles. The film is a Hindi remake of the 2016 hit Malayalam movie Oppam, starring Mohanlal.
