ENE Repeat Release Date: 19 November 2026 Expected

Plot details have not been announced. The sequel brings back the friend group from the original film, known to fans as the Kanyarasi gang, and adds Srinath Maganti. The first film followed Karthik, a Hyderabad club manager about to marry his boss's daughter and move to the US, whose plans fall apart after a chaotic reunion with his friends.

Release date

The date was announced on 29 June 2026, the original film's eighth anniversary, with a nostalgic video built around its Friendship Anthem. Tharun Bhascker said it felt like "clearing a very old debt", because people had asked for the sequel for years. The makers later confirmed that the date had not changed. We list it as expected until certification is announced.

The original

Ee Nagaraniki Emaindi released on 29 June 2018. It followed Karthik, a Hyderabad club manager about to marry his boss's daughter and move to the US, whose plans fall apart when his old friends reunite. The film did modest business at first but built a lasting following for its relatable characters and natural humour, and a theatrical re-release confirmed its popularity.

Cast changes

Vishwak Sen, Abhinav Gomatam and Venkatesh Kakumanu reprise their roles from the first film. Srinath Maganti joins as Karthik, replacing Sai Sushanth Reddy, who played the role in 2018.
