June 2018: War Of Words Between Salman Khan & Boney Kapoor
Salman Khan rejected two Boney Kapoor films at a go after Malaika Arora and Arjun Kapoor happened. These two films were the Wanted sequel and the No Entry sequel. In an interview with Mid-Day, he said, “There is no Wanted or No Entry sequel happening. I’m doing Bharat, Dabangg 3, and Sher Khan. I want to do something that I instantly like. I take up films only if they excite me immediately. If something is narrated to me and I am like, ‘I will tell you tomorrow’ or ‘I need some time to think’, it’s never happening.”
Reverting to the same Boney Kapoor said, “You have already heard it from Salman, so you should go with his word. I don’t want to comment on this further.”
March 2018: Ranveer & Arjun For No Entry 2

After Salman Khan announced the No Entry sequel on his birthday, Boney Kapoor was more than happy to collaborate yet again. Talking to India Today, he confirmed, “I have the script, and now it is up to Salman if he wants to do it and when he wants to do it.

It is ten times funnier than No Entry, but the film to be made completely depends on Salman; it can be made only with him.”
