Sequel to Sanam Teri Kasam Announced for 2026
Director Vinay Sapru revealed that Deepak Mukut will produce the sequel of Sanam Teri Kasam, which is slated to release during Valentine’s week in 2026. The original film, starring Harshvardhan Rane and Mawra Hocane, was first released in 2016 and re-released earlier this month, receiving a strong response from audiences. Following the success of the re-release, directors Radhika Rao and Vinay Sapru announced the sequel.
Producer Deepak Mukut Clarifies His Stand
However, producer Deepak Mukut soon after stated that he was not consulted about the sequel and reminded everyone that he owns the IP rights for Sanam Teri Kasam. He clarified that the rights to make a sequel, prequel, or remake lie with him. Also: Amazon Prime Video has put a hold on the Rs. 120 crore-budgeted Gulkanda Tales, while shows by Raj & DK are facing criticism.
Vinay Sapru Clears the Confusion
Vinay Sapru has now addressed the confusion, assuring fans that everything is in order between the makers. He confirmed that the sequel, which had been written earlier, is set for release in 2026. In an interview with Hindustan Times, he explained, “We had written the second part when the first film was made. We always wanted to move ahead with it, but for some reason, it didn’t happen. There’s been confusion because of some interviews, but I want to make it clear: the sequel will be another story of love and promises, and it will be released in 2026. However, we haven’t officially announced it yet. I respect my team, my producer, and my actors. Deepak is a dear friend, and we even had dinner together on Monday.”
Deepak Mukut on the Sequel Announcement
Earlier, commenting on the misunderstanding, Deepak Mukut had said, “Since I am the producer, the IP rights for Sanam Teri Kasam belong to me. Therefore, the rights to make a sequel, prequel, or remake are mine. I announced the sequel in September 2024, with Harshvardhan Rane in the lead, but I haven’t had any discussions with the directors about it. They haven’t met or spoken to me regarding the sequel. I also haven’t finalized any director yet.”
