The film marks Priyadarshan's return to Bollywood after a six-year hiatus since Rangrezz (2013). It is not a sequel to Hungama (2003), with Priyadarshan saying, "We decided to title the new comedy Hungama 2 because the mood of masti, mischief and hungama remain unchanged."[6] It also marks the comeback of Shilpa Shetty for the first time in 13 years since Apne.[7]

gollark: I can *kind of* do most of the operations my calculator can, at probably a millionth of the speed.
