The ultimate tale of revenge and blood feud, Anurag Kashyap's Gangs of Wasseypur, changed the way audiences perceived Indian cinema. Not only in the home country but the desi crime saga also garnered appreciation globally. The movie also made it to the Cannes Film Festival in 2012 and was the only Hindi-language film to achieve that during that time.
After two installments, rumors were rife that the third installment of the movie was in the works. However, Manoj Bajpayee, the lead star, confirmed that
Sardar Khan won't be coming to the big screens for the third time with Gangs of Wasseypur 3.
The actor told Bollywoodlife that Gangs of Wasseypur 3 is not happening, as Anurag Kashyap has told him that in many words. He said, "I am so lucky to have been a part of 3–5 cult films in my career, and Gangs of Wasseypur is one of them. People are still pouring so much love on Sardar Khan, and they are making memes all the time. I feel overwhelmed, but at the same time, some memes are quite embarrassing to see."
