Murder and Jannat- Emraan Hashmi was on a dream run with these franchises. The actor tasted immense success with both, and Jannat especially helped him cement his bankable star status at that point. Both were franchises with great soundtracks and engaging stories.

It therefore is surprising that there's been no update on a possible Jannat 3. But when HT City caught up with the actor, he spilled the beans on why it isn't happening anytime soon.

He told us exclusively, “I would love to do that, probably old wine in a new bottle. The makers (Mahesh and Mukesh Bhatt) have to come together again to make it happen, which I unfortunately don’t see happening. It’s a team, right? If by some stroke of luck or miracle that happens, it will happen. Till then my life goes on, I do what I love most- acting. I have a couple of projects going to be announced, solo films which are kind of that streak which audiences have loved to see me in, the bad boy. I will try to kickstart that again."

Hashmi was seen recently in the web show Showtime and the film Ae Watan Mere Watan. 2023 saw him returning to the mainstream spotlight with Tiger 3, playing the antagonist opposite Salman Khan.

He writes for HT City, keeping pace with an industry where news cycles expire long before the popcorn gets cold. He completed his graduation in English Honours from Kirori Mal College, followed by a Master’s degree in English Literature-effectively training his brain to over-analyse classic texts before applying those exact same skills to 3-hour Bollywood blockbusters. He got into the profession when he had barely graduated from college and has been at HT ever since.

Beyond reviews, as Assistant Editor, he helps navigate the broader circus of showbiz, tracking everything from OTT shifts to sudden box office panics. In a beat driven by loud PR machinery and carefully scripted answers, Rishabh prefers cutting through the noise to focus on how stories get made and why trends shift. When he isn’t writing against a deadline, he is usually sitting in a dark theater, compulsively memorising dialogues. For Rishabh, analysing movies isn't just a day job- it’s a habit he couldn't turn off even if he tried.Read More
