Omkara is one of Vishal Bhardwaj’s most loved films of all time. Starring Ajay Devgn, Kareena Kapoor, Saif Ali Khan, Konkona Sen Sharma, Vivek Oberoi, Bipasha Basu, and Naseeruddin Shah in lead roles, the movie has attained the status of a cult classic. It is also one of those few films that featured Saif in a grey character—Langda Tyagi—which has been loved by fans. Now, reports have it that the makers Kumar Mangat and Abhishek Pathak are planning a spin-off on the character of Langda Tyagi from Omkara, 19 years after its release.
As per Pinkvilla, a source has confirmed, “The character of Langda Tyagi by Saif Ali Khan has stood the test of time, as it continues to find a mention in pop culture every few months. Nineteen years later, based on the love given to the part by the audience, producers Kumar Mangat and Abhishek Pathak are all set for a spin-off on Langda Tyagi. The duo came across an idea that organically lends itself to the world of Omkara, and more so, Langda Tyagi.”
The source further revealed that the writing work for the spin-off is in full swing, and the makers are trying to lock the script as soon as possible so that it can go on floors in 2026. While the casting details of the film are under wraps, the question remains whether Saif Ali Khan will return to the world of Omkara or not.
The source, while talking about it, shared, “That’s a secret, which will unravel once the script is locked. Saif Ali Khan might just make a return to the world of Omkara, or the makers could rope in a young actor to play the part, making it a reboot in the true sense.”
