Preity Zinta, who played CBI officer Reet Oberoi in the 1999 film Sangharsh, expressed her desire for a sequel. Director Tanuja Chandra clarified that there are no plans for one yet, but finds the idea interesting for the future. “I am so glad that the film is so well remembered after all these years,” Tanuja said in a chat with HT, adding, “It would be wonderful to see Reet Oberoi again in an older avatar, but still as courageous and cool as she always was.”
After a long hiatus, Zinta held an #AskPZ session on X, receiving a flood of questions from fans about films, IPL, her famous paranthas, and her personal life. One user asked her to choose a film from her career for which she’d like to see a sequel. To this, she replied, “Sangharsh for sure. Rest can’t think of any right now.”
Akshay Kumar co-starred in the film as Professor Aman Verma, a convict with a brilliant mind who develops feelings for Reet. However, the movie did not delve deeply into his backstory. On being asked if Tanuja would like to create a spin-off for his character, she said, “Well, I cannot really show him as a young man now… so we’ll have to let that one go.”
In the same #AskPZ session, another follower asked Zinta about working with Ashutosh Rana, who played the terrifying villain Lajja Shankar Pandey. She replied, “I broke my leg, chipped my teeth and cut my lip during that Shoot, so it was definitely a tough shoot, and it terrified me with so many hospital visits. Ashutosh was definitely mind blowing in the film.”
