A source close to Ranveer told the portal, "Ranveer likes the idea of Sher Singh, but for him to actually do it he first needs to get an all-okay from Akshay."

Talking about Ranveer, the director of the film Anees Bazmee told the portal, "Singh Is Kinng was a cult film, which enthralled audiences to the core, not only because of its brilliant script but also the fantastic portrayal of Happy Singh by Akshay Kumar. Audiences would have a lot of expectations from the sequel. I am sure the team would leave no stone unturned to match or surpass the benchmark. I wish them success. I sincerely think Akshay playing Singh's character would do justice, but Ranveer is a fine performer. He has to go deep to play Happy Singh's character. Anyway, they have my blessings. May the audience accept Ranveer as wholeheartedly as they accepted Akshay."
