Andaz Apna Apna that had Salman Khan, Aamir Khan, Raveena Tandon and Karisma Kapoor in the lead roles is a classic cult. Since the past few years, the rumour mills have been abuzz with the sequel to this film, and several actors' names from the younger generation have also been put up. However, the film has been on the back burner as the makers couldn't zero down on the male leads to reprise Aamir and Salman's role. 

A report in Deccan Chronicle states that the sequel's writer, Dilip Shukla stressed on the fact that they won't do Andaz Apna Apna 2 without Salman Khan as Prem and Aamir Khan as Amar. Dilip Shukla confirmed that the sequel is happening as producer Vijay Sinha's daughter Preeti Sinha asked him to start penning down the sequel. He explained, "I am writing the sequel. It is not easy to pen a sequel. I have to bring something more attractive in comparison to the earlier one."
