Girish stated in a media interview that he will only begin work on Premalu 2 following his next movie, Bethlehem Kudumba Unit. He went on to say that the majority of the sequel's locales will be in India and abroad. The director stated, "We knew Premalu would be a successful project, but we never imagined it to be such an incredible success at the box office."

Following the film's enormous success, the romantic comedy drama's sequel was announced last year. According to recent sources, disagreements among the crew, producers, or actors caused the film to be shelved. Some, meantime, asserted that the movie's delay was due to the script's inability to adequately comply with Premalu. After a great theatrical run, Premalu, which starred Naslen and Mamitha Baiju in the key roles, made over Rs 100 crore at the box office.
