Behind The Scenes: Nushrratt Bharucha Shares Coffee-Fueled Set Life From Chhorii 2

Nushrratt Bharucha recently offered fans an exclusive behind-the-scenes look at the making of Chhorii 2, the much-anticipated sequel to the 2021 horror film Chhorii. Sharing a reel on Instagram, the actress captured what goes on on set, emphasizing the collective effort and camaraderie required to craft the chilling atmosphere that defines the franchise.

Her caption, “It takes a village… and a lot of coffee ☕ to make the chills look this good. #Chhorii #SetLife,” highlights both the hard work and the lighthearted moments behind the scenes. Chhorii 2 is currently streaming on Amazon Prime Video, continuing to engage horror enthusiasts across India and beyond.

The Horror Continues

Chhorii 2 picks up seven years after the harrowing events of the first film, with Bharucha reprising her role as Sakshi, now navigating new supernatural threats while protecting her daughter Ishani. The sequel delves deeper into the eerie cult and sinister forces introduced earlier, pushing the boundaries of Indian horror cinema. In promotional videos, Bharucha appeared alongside co-star Soha Ali Khan and director Vishal Furia, discussing how the franchise has evolved from a chilling tale into a “terrifying legacy,” reflecting their ambition to elevate the genre beyond conventional jump scares and clichés.

Bharucha’s journey into the horror genre marks a significant expansion of her acting repertoire. Known for her roles in commercial hits like Pyaar Ka Punchnama, Sonu Ke Titu Ki Sweety, and Dream Girl, she embraced the challenging and intense role of Sakshi with enthusiasm. She has openly shared the physical and emotional demands of filming Chhorii 2, including the many screams and tense moments required to bring authenticity to the horror experience.

Critical Reception And Audience Response

While Chhorii 2 has been praised for its visual style and Bharucha’s committed performance, some critics found the narrative less compelling compared to the original. Reviews note that the film’s pacing suffers from repetitive dialogue and predictable scenes, though the climax delivers impactful moments. The film’s attempt to blend horror with a message-driven story received mixed reactions, with some appreciating the ambition and others feeling it diluted the horror’s intensity.

Chhorii 2 represents Nushrratt Bharucha’s continued evolution as an actress willing to explore diverse and demanding roles. The sequel’s production showcases a collaborative filmmaking process dedicated to redefining Indian horror with sophistication and depth. As the film streams on Amazon Prime Video, it invites audiences to experience the chilling world that Bharucha and her team have painstakingly crafted, blending suspense, style, and storytelling into a memorable horror legacy.
