Awarapan 2, the sequel to the 2007 cult classic Awarapan, is shaping up to be a high-profile return, with Emraan Hashmi reprising his role and Disha Patani confirmed as the female lead.
Directed by Nitin Kakkar, the sequel is expected to retain the gritty, emotional flavor of the original while amplifying its stakes.
Sources close to the production say that Disha Patani accepted the offer almost immediately after reading the script—she was deeply impressed by the emotional arc of her character. Though specific details about her role remain under wraps, insiders promise that the sequel will deliver “twice the romance and twice the emotions” of the first film.

As for the story, Awarapan 2 is reported to revisit the underworld backdrop, exploring darker and more intense themes while building upon the original’s narrative foundation. Filming is slated to begin by late September or early October, and the team hopes to wrap production by January next year. Meanwhile, the soundtrack is already being worked on, with expectations of both new romantic numbers and possibly reviving some songs that resonated with fans of the first film.

With this lineup and the promise of elevated storytelling, Awarapan 2 is building up strong anticipation among Bollywood audiences. Stay tuned—this could be one of the most-awaited sequels in recent times.
