Bipasha Basu sizzled and fizzled in Abbas-Mustan’s hit film Race, however she has not been approached for the movie’s sequel, apparently even original directors Abbas-Mustan are also not interested in a sequel to Race instead they are interested in reviving their shelved project Mr. Fraud.



Bipasha tells, “If Mr Fraud is revived I’d be happy to give dates. The film was shot in London and the styling was not time bound.”

“I heard even Abbas-Mustan are not doing Race 2. If the original directors are not doing the sequel, who am I? I haven’t been approached for Race 2. That’s fine. In Bollywood the heroines are never signed for sequels. It’s a tradition . Just check the sequels. The guys get repeated. The girls don’t. It’s a man’s world.I don’t feel like a second citizen for that. When Raaz 2 was made everyone kept asking why I wasn’t in it. But I never worried about that. No point in crying about it.”

“I don’t want do any more work than my pace allows me. I don’t want to compete with anybody. I’ve made a niche right from my first film. I’m Bipasha Basu. I don’t think there’s any replacement for that. I enjoy my work. But there so much more my vocation as an actor than just acting. I can do stage shows, be a businesswoman, work for social causes.I keep busy 24 by 7. At this stage of my life I don’t need to sit and pine for a role.”

What will be in Race2 without Bipasha Basu?
