Bharuccha, while speaking to ANI, opened up about the time between the two films and how the four-year gap allowed her to grow and take a break.

Talking about how important it was to take a step back, the actress said, "The four-year gap was very helpful. If this had come back-to-back, I don't know what I would've done. The break allowed me to do more light-hearted films... it helped me detach from the film, and sometimes detaching has its positive side."

Sharing how good it feels to be appreciated by the audience, Bharuccha added, "It feels good when you give a performance and want to make a positive impact on the audience. You feel like giving yourself a pat on the back, like we did something meaningful."

When asked if there will be a Chhorii Universe, director Vishal Furia said, "I don't know about a universe, but I hope the story moves forward from here. We haven't written anything yet, but we do have a few ideas. If people like Chhorii 2, then I believe we'll get another chance to explore more in the third part. With that hope, we present this film."

The trailer for 'Chhorii 2' was released earlier this week. It begins with a dark and emotional tale told by Nushrratt's character to her daughter, where a king, angry at the birth of a girl, orders a daasi to kill the child.

Directed by Vishal Furia, who also directed the first part, Chhorii 2 also features Gashmeer Mahajani, Saurabh Goyal, Pallavi Ajay, Kuldeep Sareen, and Hardika Sharma.

The film is set to premiere worldwide on April 11, 2025, under the banners of T-Series, Abundantia Entertainment, Psych, and Tamarisk Lane Productions.

Interesting point about the gap between films. Sometimes sequels come too fast and feel rushed. Glad they took time to develop this properly.

The first movie was so intense! I needed those 4 years to recover before watching another one 😅 But seriously, horror films with good stories are rare in Bollywood.

While I appreciate the thought behind the gap, I hope the sequel maintains the same level of quality. The trailer looks promising but the first film set a very high bar.

Vishal Furia is such an underrated director! His horror films actually make you think instead of just cheap jump scares. Can't wait for April 11! 🎥

Respectfully, I think the trailer revealed too much of the plot. I would have preferred more mystery going into the film. Still excited though!
