The immense love and support I received for this film is overwhelming. Kanika has once again crafted a phenomenal arc for Rani, pushing the character to new depths.

Adding fuel to the fire is Officer Mritunjay or Montu Chacha, played by Jimmy Shergill, a new ace cop with a personal vendetta, dead set on exposing their web of lies.

Sunny Kaushal, thrilled to join the cast, adds, “Joining the universe of Phir Aayi Hasseen Dillruba has been an incredible opportunity. The first film created a unique world that left audiences wanting more and certainly did leave an indelible mark on them. Being able to add my own color to that canvas is by far one of the most exciting experiences. I have always loved the works of Taapsee, Vikrant, and Jimmy sir and sharing the screen with such talented actors is an absolute privilege. It’s a beautifully gripping script. Portraying Abhimanyu has been immensely rewarding and a great learning experience. Can’t wait for the audience to meet him too.”
