Producer Deepak Mukut of Soham Rockstar Entertainment put an end to recent speculation by confirming that Apne 2 has not been shelved. The sequel to the much-loved family drama Apne, starring Dharmendra, Sunny Deol, and Bobby Deol, had been surrounded by rumours—especially following Dharmendra’s passing earlier this year. The original film held a special place in the late actor’s life and career, making the uncertainty around the sequel particularly emotional for fans.
Addressing the rumours, Deepak Mukut said, “People need to stop spreading unverified reports. Apne 2 is NOT shelved. The film is happening, and it is happening with full conviction. We have been working quietly but consistently, and there has never been a question of dropping the project. Apne 2 remains one of the most emotionally significant films for our banner.”
Mukut also reflected on Dharmendra’s importance to the franchise. “Apne belonged to Dharamji. His presence, his warmth, his soul—everything he stood for—made that film what it became. Apne 2 is extremely close to my heart. In many ways, this film will be a shradhanjali, a heartfelt tribute to Dharamji. We want the sequel to celebrate him, his values, and the emotional world he created with the Deol family on screen.”
The sequel, originally announced with Dharmendra, Sunny Deol, Bobby Deol, and Karan Deol, has been going through creative restructuring, but the intention behind it remains unchanged. The team aims to continue the emotional legacy of the 2007 film, which became a major favourite among audiences for its heartfelt portrayal of family bonds, resilience, and love.
Following Dharmendra’s passing, the meaning of Apne 2 has deepened for the makers and fans alike. With Deepak Mukut’s confirmation, admirers of the Deol family and Dharmendra’s enduring legacy can look forward to a sequel shaped as a warm and respectful tribute to the legendary actor.
