Some films, even if they don’t become massive blockbusters, are remembered for a single character. This character gains such popularity that their name is still familiar. The movie being discussed is ‘Omkara,’ released in 2006. The film featured Ajay Devgn, Kareena Kapoor, Saif Ali Khan, Konkona Sen, and Vivek Oberoi, among others. Vishal Bhardwaj’s direction was well-regarded, with Kumar Mangat Pathak as the producer. While all the characters received appreciation, one character, Langda Tyagi, gained a cult following.
Saif Ali Khan played the role of Langda Tyagi. Aamir Khan was initially considered for the role. He reportedly accepted it but desired changes that Vishal Bhardwaj didn’t agree with. Consequently, Saif Ali Khan took on the part and was highly praised. Now, could a spin-off of this character be in development?
According to recent reports, Kumar Mangat and Abhishek Pathak are planning a spin-off centered on the character ‘Langda Tyagi’ from the film ‘Omkara.’ After 19 years of the audience’s love for this character, a major project is in preparation. Both producers have an idea connected to the world of Omkara and also linked to the character ‘Langda Tyagi.’
More information about the film suggests the scripting for ‘Langda Tyagi’ is progressing quickly. The makers aim to begin filming in 2026. However, no information regarding casting has been released yet. The return of Saif Ali Khan is uncertain, with an announcement expected from the makers. It remains to be seen if new actors will be considered. If Saif returns, it could be a significant film for him.
Kumar Mangat and Abhishek Pathak have other projects in the pipeline. Positive news is also emerging about Drishyam 3, including the next installment of Shaitaan.
