The poster also shows a glimpse of one of the film’s tracks, titled ‘Teri Talash Mein,’ and depicts various modes of transportation, ranging from a bus to a car to a train. However, the creators are withholding additional information.

The 2014 coming-of-age romance Yaariyan, starring Himanshu Kohli and Rakul Preet Singh, was directed by Divya Khosla Kumar. Yaariyan 2 will be directed by filmmakers Radhika Rao and Vinay Sapru, best known for directing Salman Khan-starrer Lucky: No Time for Love (2005) and Sanam Teri Kasam (2016) starring Harshvardhan Rane and Mawra Hocane. Yaariyan 2 stars Warina Hussain, Priya Varrier and Pearl V Puri round out the cast of the film.

The makers of Yaariyan, the 2014 musical hit, announced the sequel Yaariyan 2 with a quirky motion poster introducing the cast.

T-Series took to Twitter to share information about the upcoming film, which will be released in theatres next year and wrote, “Cousins by blood, friends by choice! A family glued by the bond of true friendship brings back to you, #Yaariyan2 In cinemas 12th May 2023 #BhushanKumar #DivyaKhoslaKumar @SapruAndRao #VinaySapru #RadhikaRao @MeezaanJ @AnaswaraRajan_ @Yash_Dasgupta @pearlvpuri @Warina_Hussain”

The sequel’s plot appears to be quite different from the first instalment, which revolved around a gang of college students. Yaariyan was a coming-of-age film about a group of college students who learn about love, values, ambition, and life as they embark on a quest to compete with the rest of the world.

With this film, Pearl V Puri will make his Bollywood debut, alongside Malayalam actress Anaswara Rajan, Yash Dasgupta, and Priya Varrier. While Meezaan Jafri made his Bollywood debut in 2019 with Malaal, Yash is a well-known Bengali actor who will make his B-town debut with this film.

The film is set to hit theaters on 12th May, 2023.
