Sequels have clearly become Bollywood’s latest obsession, and joining the bandwagon now is Bhagam Bhag 2. In 2006, the chemistry and comic timing of Akshay Kumar, Paresh Rawal and Govinda made Bhagam Bhag an instant fan favourite. Now, if reports are to be believed, the film is undergoing a major casting change. Actor Manoj Bajpayee will reportedly join the cast, replacing Govinda.
