'Chhorii' was a significant departure from the work I had previously been a part of and to see the risk being rewarded is such a great feeling. Chhorii' is a passion project for all of us and I cannot wait to engage with Vishal and the team as we take the story forward with Chhorii 2."

The film will be produced by Psych, which is Abundantia Entertainment's horror vertical; Crypt TVs and T-Series with Bhushan Kumar, Krishan Kumar, Vikram Malhotra, Jack Davis and Shikhaa Sharma continuing as producers.

With 'Chhorii 2', we are delighted to continue the successful collaboration with Vishal at the helm and Nushrratt as our leading lady. We hope to take 'Chhorii 2' a notch higher and make it scarier than the first edition."
