Development

Following the commercial success of Udhabaani (2009), director Amjad Ibrahim and producer Hamid Ali began working on the development of a sequel in 2013. They initiated the process of budget acquisition and brainstormed potential storylines for the movie. Initially, Ibrahim intended to start filming Udhabaani 2 in mid-2017, after completing his ongoing project, titled Dheythee Aniyaa. However, due to various delays in pre-production and his prior commitments to other films, the pre-production of Udhabaani 2 was postponed indefinitely. To craft the plot for the sequel, Mohamed Gasim, the writer of the first installment, was brought in to develop the storyline. The team also contemplated the possibility of a third installment in the film series. Hussain Sobah was hired as the music composer, similar to his role in the first film. By 2017, Sobah had composed five original songs, including the theme song for the sequel. The film was officially re-launched in July 2023 with a new cast. Post-production of the film commenced in October 2023 while majority of the editing work by Ali Musthafa was completed by October 2023.

Casting

In 2020, director Amjad Ibrahim announced that Yoosuf Shafeeu would reprise his role, and Hamid Ali would return, but Amira Ismail would be replaced by a new actress due to her absence from the film industry at the time. However, as the project faced further delays, Ibrahim and producer Hamid Ali later approached Yoosuf Shafeeu and Amira Ismail to return to their roles in Udhabaani 2. Nevertheless, as the screenplay called for an immediate continuation from the events of the first installment and considering the physical changes that had occurred during the twelve-year gap, the original actors declined the offer and suggested casting new actors for their roles. In July 2023, the new cast was officially announced, including Ahmed Easa, Aminath Shuha, Ali Azim, Nathasha Jaleel, Ali Shameel, Mariyam Shakeela and Mariyam Haleem, while Hamid Ali was confirmed to reprise his role.

Filming

Initially, Ibrahim planned to finalize the cast and commence filming after Ramadan in 2020. However, due to COVID-19 pandemic, the project was put on hold, and several changes were needed, including reworking the cast, before the film could proceed. The crew departed to R. Maakurathu on 10 July 2022 to begin filming. First schedule of filming was wrapped up in September 2023. The second schedul of filming commenced in November 2023 and was completed by the end of the year.

Release

Udhabaani 2 was released theatrically on 19 September 2024.
