Building on that legacy, the makers chose to make a sequel called ‘Ee Nagaraniki Emaindi Repeat (ENE Repeat)’. Sources now say that the unit of this film is in Thailand filming important sequences.

Vishwak Sen, Abhinav Gomatam, and Venkatesh Kakumanu have reunited for the sequel, reviving the chemistry that made the first film so memorable. In the sequel, Srinath Maganti will be seen along with this trio.

At the helm once again is Tharun Bhascker, ensuring the same quirky storytelling flavour, while Srujan Yarabolu, and Sandeep Nagireddy are backing the project under S Originals and Rootnode Cinema.

Sources close to the unit say that the shoot of the movie is presently underway in Thailand, and will continue for a month. A picture released from the set of the film captures a breezy, easygoing moment, brimming with laid-back charm.

The four boys — the “Team Kanyaraasi” gang, radiate effortless energy as they lounge in a vintage blue convertible. The frame beautifully fuses a retro vibe with the spirit of a modern-day bro trip.

Promising to recapture the same carefree spirit and chaotic fun, the film aims to take audiences back into the lives of the beloved gang. Adding to the excitement, the core team from the original is returning, bringing along a wave of nostalgia.

The sequel boasts of an excellent technical team. Music for the film is to be scored by Vivek Sagar while the film’s visuals are being crafted by cinematographer AJ Aaron. Raviteja Girijala has been assigned the task of overseeing editing.
