There is a slew of Bollywood sequels coming up, starting with Don 2, in December.
 
We saw some of them in the first part of this special. Here's looking at the next lot, in this concluding part.
 
Golmaal 4

Director Rohit Shetty plans to give his Golmaal fans a break from the films, and start the next installment in 2013.
 
The cast will remain the same -- Ajay Devgn, Kareena Kapoor, Arshad Warsi, Tusshar Kapoor, Kunal Khemu, Shreyas Talpade and Ashwini Khalsekar.

Once Golmaal 4 releases, it will be the first Hindi movie series with four installments.

Munna Bhai Chale Amerika was supposed to be the third film in the Munnabhai series, in which Munna and Circuit were to meet President Obama in America. Shah Rukh Khan beat them to it, by meeting an Obama lookalike in My Name is Khan, so director Rajkumar Hirani scrapped the plan.

The film, however, is still getting made.
 
Arshad Warsi said in an interview, 'There will be no USA in the next Munnabhai film. As far as I know, the film's script is completely new.'

Housefull 2
