During an exclusive interaction with IANS, Sanjana shared, "People showered a lot of love on Netflix to our film 'Dhak Dhak' and because of that we are coming up with a sequel, which I am very very excited about."

While the 'Dil Bechara' actress did not reveal many details about the sequel, it would be exciting to see what the makers come up with next.

Penned and directed by Tarun Dudeja, "Dhak Dhak" has been produced by Ajit Andhare, Kevin Vaz, Pranjal Khandhdiya, and Taapsee Pannu under the banner of BLM Pictures.

It narrates the motivating tale of four women who set out for a road trip to the highest motorable pass in the world on their bikes on a journey of self-discovery.

The movie which was filmed just within 40 days reached the audience on 13 October 2023.

When asked if the reason for her doing few films is her focus on social work, Sanjana told IANS, "I am not intentionally doing fewer films. It has been four years since my debut, and I have been a part of four projects ever since- we also faced a worldwide pandemic (coronavirus) within that time. Additionally, our industry has been going through a rough patch ever since last year- so, as young actors, we also have to adjust to those changing scenarios. The intention is to do work all the time and lots of it. Even if I do four films in a year, social work will still be my focus. We are all waiting for our industry to be good and healthy again so that the ball can get rolling in the same way that it was before."

While I enjoyed the first film, I hope the sequel has a stronger script. The concept was great but some parts felt rushed. Still, excited to see these talented actresses together again!
