Did you ever think there would be a sequel to Fauji, the film that made Shah Rukh Khan so popular 36 years ago? As it happens, dreams do come true, but with a twist. Vicky Jain who was Big Boss 17 contestant will play the legendary part that made Shah Rukh Khan an iconic name. You did read correctly! Can anyone, still, actually put on the battle boots of King Khan? That is the question that is bothering everyone.

In the upcoming series, actor Gauahar Khan plays Lieutenant Colonel Simarjeet Kaur, a cadet trainer with expertise in weaponry, while Vikas Jain plays Colonel Sanjay Singh. Twelve new performers from throughout India will be introduced to the audience by Sandeep Singh. These actors were chosen based on their talent and come from different locations.

Back in 1989, It was Shahrukh Khan, with his amazing passion and talent, who captured the nation’s attention in the Fauji. However, fans are both concerned and happy about Vicky Jain joining the cast of the military drama’s sequel. Can Jain successfully play a role that will always be imbued with SRK’s unique charisma? Or will this relaunch end up being more of a Fauji blunder? 

One thing’s for sure nostalgia is about to hit hard. And while Vicky has some big shoes to fill, let’s not write him off just yet. Shah Rukh himself began somewhere, after all. Though action, drama, and passion are all expected to return in Fauji 2, will Jain be able to recreate the magic that made Shah Rukh Khan the Badshah of Bollywood?
