Emraan Hashmi’s new post sparks buzz about Awarapan sequel or re-release

Bollywood actor Emraan Hashmi’s recent social media post has sparked excitement among fans. On Friday, the Jannat star shared a video on Instagram that seems to bring back the world of his 2007 cult film Awarapan. The video features the iconic song Toh Phir Aao playing in the background, instantly reviving nostalgia among fans.

This post has led to speculations about whether Awarapan is getting a sequel or if the film is being re-released in theatres. As soon as Emraan dropped the video, fans flooded the comments with their reactions. Some expressed hope for a sequel, while others eagerly wished to see the film back on the big screen. One user wrote, "Please tell me Awarapan 2 is happening!", while another commented, "This movie deserves a re-release, such a masterpiece!"

Adding to the curiosity, Emraan captioned his post "Jumma Mubarak" and used the hashtag #Awarapan. The video shows him in a boat at an exotic location, releasing pigeons from a cage—reminiscent of a scene featuring Shriya Saran’s character in the original film. A powerful dialogue from Awarapan can also be heard, where Shivam (Emraan's character) talks about sacrificing his life for a noble cause.

Released in 2007, Awarapan was directed by Mohit Suri and starred Shriya Saran, Mrinalini Sharma, and Ashish Vidyarthi. The film, produced by Mukesh Bhatt, became a cult favorite over the years. It was inspired by the South Korean movie A Bittersweet Life and is known for its intense storyline and emotional depth.

The film revolves around Shivam Pandit (Emraan Hashmi), a gangster assigned by his boss Bharat Malik (Ashutosh Rana) to keep an eye on Reema (Mrinalini Sharma), a Pakistani girl held against her will. Shriya Saran played Aaliyah, Shivam’s love interest, who tragically gets shot by her own father. The movie’s gripping narrative, soulful soundtrack by Pritam, and powerful performances made it an unforgettable cinematic experience.

With Emraan Hashmi’s cryptic post, fans are now eagerly waiting for an official announcement. Will Awarapan get a sequel, or is it making a grand comeback in theatres? Only time will tell.
