Story Overview
Without giving away too much of both parts of this movie, you see, this movie actually is set 10 years after the events of the first part, and the story basically continues. Manu is let out of prison in 2021 in the middle of the coronavirus pandemic. Upon searching for Priya and getting to know that she was in an agonising marriage and that her family was in dire straits, he comes across Surabhi, who ultimately aids him in helping Priya’s family and dealing with some of the events of his past. It was a tale of lost love, redemption, and second chances.
Budget and Box Office Performance
The budget was fixed at ₹10 crore each for the two parts of the films. Side B grossed around ₹15.6 crore locally at the box office; this shows a good audience interest in a High Budget.
