Overview

The promotional campaign for the Bollywood sequel Awarapan 2 began with a motion poster and a teaser of the song “Tera Mera Rishta Puraana,” released on 29 July 2026. The poster featured Emraan Hashmi as Shivam Pandit in rain, and the track introduced newcomer Subodhh Sharma, with original lyricist Sayeed Quadri and composer Mithoon returning.

On 4 August 2026, producers announced during a live interaction with Hashmi and producer Vishesh Bhatt that the film’s trailer would drop on 6 August 2026, ahead of the worldwide theatrical release scheduled for 14 August 2026.

The film is directed by Nitin Kakkar, written by Bilal Siddiqui, and produced by Vishesh Films.

The soundtrack expands beyond Mithoon, featuring contributions from Jeet Gannguli, Amaal Mallik, Akhil Sachdeva and newcomer Subodhh Sharma, aiming to recapture the musical appeal of the 2007 original.

On 5 August 2026, composer‑singer Amal Malik announced a new track titled “Yeh Aawaarapan” for the sequel, designed to echo the emotions of the original characters and referencing earlier hits such as “To Phir Aao” and “Tera Mera Rishta.” The promotional rollout continues ahead of the film’s worldwide release on 14 August 2026.
