Phir Hera Pheri (2006)

Streaming on Prime Video

Raju, Shyam and Babu Bhaiyya take us along on more of their madcap adventures in this timeless comedy. Phir Hera Pheri was incredibly successful when it was first released and is just as beloved today. The film is often considered one of the best sequels ever made. 

Dhoom 2 (2006)

Streaming on Prime Video

Hrithik Roshan and Aishwarya Rai set our screens on fire with their sizzling chemistry as a pair of thieves in the second instalment of the Dhoom series. The action-thriller franchise has achieved cult status in Bollywood history, and this sequel definitely did not disappoint.

Gangs of Wasseypur - Part 2 (2012)

Streaming on Netflix

One of the rare sequels that is regarded as better than the original, black thriller Gangs of Wasseypur - Part 2 seamlessly picks up after the first film. Interestingly, Anurag Kashyap shot both parts as a single, 5+ hour-long film, which was later split into two for Indian audiences.

Tanu Weds Manu Returns (2015)

Streaming on JioCinema

Kangana Ranaut and R. Madhavan reprise their roles as the charming Tanu and Manu in this critically-acclaimed sequel. The film takes us through the next chapter of the couple’s life and explores their marital issues to comedic effect. Ranaut plays a double role here.

Drishyam 2 (2022)

Streaming on Prime Video

Like its predecessor, Drishyam 2 is a remake of the Malayalam film series starring Mohanlal. Vijay Salgaonkar (played by an appropriately stoic Ajay Devgn) and his family deal with the fallout of their actions in the first film. The twists and turns are sure to keep you at the edge of your seat.
