The show’s success has not depended entirely on Bollywood stars. An episode featuring Kiku Sharda, Chandan Prabhakar and Harsh Limbachiyaa has accumulated around 4.7 crore views, proving that the comedy itself remains a major attraction.

The episode featured plenty of unscripted entertainment, including an unexpected performance by a police officer. Samay also revealed that having the comedy trio on the panel was a personal dream come true.

The original Awarapan, released in 2007, did not become a major theatrical success when it first arrived in cinemas. Over the years, however, its emotional storyline, music and performances helped the film develop a dedicated cult following.

Nearly two decades later, the sequel has managed to turn that nostalgia into substantial theatrical momentum. Audiences have returned to the world of Awarapan, helping the second instalment achieve numbers far beyond its predecessor’s original theatrical performance.

When asked by The Hollywood Reporter India whether she would return to the world of Arjun, Imraan and Kabir, Zoya offered an encouraging update.

We are on it. Let’s just put it that way, she said, while stressing that a sequel would only happen if the story feels right for the characters today. For Zoya, nostalgia alone is not enough to bring the trio back.

The filmmaker wants a story that reflects how the characters may have changed fifteen years later. If the right idea comes together and everything falls into place, she believes another chapter could be worth telling.
