Kareena Kapoor Will Replace Saba Qamar in Hindi Medium 2

You can blame the Pakistani artist ban in Bollywood for this.

Kareena in Hindi Medium 2

It’s official. Kareena Kapoor has taken over for Saba Qamar in Hindi Medium 2. Rumors that Kareena would replace the Pakistani actress had been going around since early 2019.

Veere Di Wedding actress Kareena Kapoor will be seen opposite Irfan Khan in Hindi Medium 2.

Earlier, Pakistani actor Saba Qamar essayed the role of the female lead in the 2017 release, Hindi Medium. The Bollywood flick scored big but now they’ve changed the cast.

Rumors

It is also rumored that Bollywood’s most romantic onscreen pair Shahrukh Khan and Kajol would replace both lead actors from the original Hindi Medium. Kajol would step in for Qamar, while the Bollywood badshah would replace Irfan Khan.

Those rumors were later shot down. Given Bollywood’s ban on Pakistani actors following the Pulwama attack, it was inevitable that someone would replace Qamar.

Dinesh Vijan’s production Hindi Medium 2 will go on floors in London. The movie’s plot surrounds the education gap in India (hence the terms, English and Hindi medium).
