Awarapan 2 is one of the most highly anticipated films of 2026. Ever since the official announcement came out, fans of Emraan Hashmi have been waiting to see what the sequel has in store for them. Except for Emraan, the other cast members are completely new. However, one question has still raised a lot of curiosity among the audience. This is related to the storyline, where people are confused whether it is going to be new or continued from the previous part.
Is Awarapan 2 a direct sequel to Awarapan?
The teaser of Awarapan 2 has been released on June 29, 2026. While sharing the teaser on Instagram, Emraan Hashmi wrote in the caption, “Shivam is back.” For the unversed, ‘Shivam’ refers to the lead character of the film, who also appeared in the first film. As of now, the caption has hinted that the story will continue from where the first film ended. But it seems like it is too early to decide before the film hits the theatres on August 14, 2026.
