Netizens credit Shriya Saran for Awarapan 2 sequel and request her to come back to films
Awarapan 2 will see the return of ‘Shivam Pandit’ a.k.a Emraan Hashmi. The trailer has already shown how he misses ‘Aliyah ‘, a.k.a Shriya Saran, as he places a rose on her grave. Now, a while back, when Shriya posted cute snaps with her husband and daughter from Petersburg, netizens credited her for the sequel of Awarapan 2.
A fan wrote, “You are the reason Awarapan got a sequel.” Another die-hard fan commented, “Please come back to the cinema industry. Yeh na Santoor wali mummy hai.” A devoted fan of Awarapan narrated the cult classic dialogue that ‘Shivam’ narrates, remembering ‘Aliyah’. It goes like, “Ek awaaz hai joh mere kano mein goonjti rehti hai. Ek chehra hai joh meri aankhon ke samne baar baar aa jata hai mere dil ka sukoon thi woh.”
