Interestingly, Mr. India's producer and Anil's elder brother, Boney Kapoor, dropped a hint about a potential sequel by posting the video on his social media, along with the caption, "Work in progress for a big screen appearance. #MrIndia #MrIndia2 @AnilKapoor." Shekhar Kapur also joined in, sharing the video on his Twitter handle, and humorously remarked, "So #MrIndia decided to be invisible for the last 30 years and now suddenly re-emerged! How come he looks the same? Maybe the bracelet doesn't just give you the power of invisibility but also eternal youth!"
Mr. India featured an ensemble cast that included Sridevi, Satish Kaushik, Annu Kapoor, Amrish Puri, Ahmed Khan, and Aftab Shivdasani, among other talented actors.
