Aditya Sarpotdar, who directed the original Munjya, will also be helming the sequel. He has reportedly completed the final script, and the shooting for Munjya 2 is expected to commence in December 2025.

The climax of Munjya subtly hinted at a continuation of the story. The narrative was left open-ended, creating a perfect setup for a second part. Munjya 2 will build upon this unfinished storyline and take the tale forward.
The Original Plot – A Unique Take on Horror
Munjya stood out for its unique concept. Starring Abhay Verma and Sharvari Wagh, the film was based on Munja, a traditional Maharashtrian ritual.
The story revolved around a young boy who dies with an unfulfilled desire to get married. His spirit, unable to attain salvation, begins to haunt the protagonist in a bid to complete his incomplete wedding. This fresh horror concept resonated with audiences and was widely appreciated.
