Harshvardhan Rane has declined working on a potential 'Sanam Teri Kasam' sequel if the original cast will be involved. Amid India-Pakistan tensions, the actor wrote, "After reading direct comments made about my country, I...respectfully decline to be part of Sanam Teri Kasam part 2 if...previous cast [is]...repeated." Pakistani actress Mawra Hocane was the female lead in 'Sanam Teri Kasam'.
