In a recent interview with Film Companion, filmmaker Karan Johar discussed the possibilities of a sequel and 'Rocky aur Rani's life post-marriage life.Karan stated, "Absolutely valid question to ask. I definitely think that Rani would not move into Randhawa Paradise (the Randhawas family's home). I definitely think the Chatterjees would be okay with the fact that they (Rocky and Rani) would move into their separate home because now they get along with each other's families well enough for them to create a world of their own. So, in my head, neither does Rocky move to Rani's nor does Rani move to Rocky's, they have a place of their own. In my head, Rani would do up that place. I'm not sure she would be bent on Rocky's aesthetic. Also, Rocky would not stop being Rocky."
