'Ada Apa Dengan Cinta? 2' (English: What's Up with Love? 2) is a 2016 Indonesian teen film directed by Riri Riza. It is the sequel to the 2002 cult classic romance Ada Apa Dengan Cinta? with Dian Sastrowardoyo and Nicholas Saputra reprising their roles as Cinta and Rangga.

Plot
Cinta is now the owner of a mini pop art café in Jakarta. She and her high school gang comforts Karmen, who is recovering from drug addiction. Milly is married to the gang's formerly geek high school mate Mamet and is currently pregnant with their first child, while Maura is married to Chris with 4 kids. Cinta announces that the ladies will go on a vacation to Yogyakarta and that she is engaged to her boyfriend Trian.

Meanwhile, in New York City, Rangga is the co-owner of a coffee shop when his step-sister, Sukma, pays a visit to ask him to visit his estranged mother in Yogyakarta, but he refuses. He ultimately has a change of heart and decides to go there after his co-owner and friend Roberto convinces him to return to Indonesia and tie up his loose ends.

Before the ladies go, they visit the grave of Alya, who died in an accident in 2010. Rangga arrives in Jakarta to find that Cinta is no longer living in her old house, so he continues on to Yogyakarta. In Yogyakarta, while vacationing, Karmen and Milly sees Rangga on the road, and they tell Cinta about it. Cinta refuses to see him at first, but after an argument with Karmen, she decides to do so.

It is revealed that they broke up in 2006. Cinta expresses her resentment towards him for gratuitously ending their relationship and that she only agreed to meet him because of her friends. Rangga explains that he broke up with her because of his academic and vocational struggles, and he thought that he couldn't make Cinta happy. However, they decide to end things in friendly terms. Cinta ends up spending the whole day with Rangga, forgetting her vacation schedule with her friends. Before parting ways, Cinta kisses Rangga, to the shock of both former lovers. Cinta then returns to Jakarta and Rangga pays his mother a visit.

Cinta cannot get Rangga out of her head and before returning to New York, Rangga stops by in Jakarta and goes to Cinta's café. He admits that he wants them to be more than friends again but she replies that the kiss meant nothing, leaving him furious. Rangga storms out of the café as Trian arrives. Trian, noticing Cinta's changed behavior after her trip, and after seeing Rangga himself, confronts Cinta about Rangga, resulting in the end of the engagement. Rangga flies back to New York while a distressed Cinta has a near death experience on the freeway, but walks away with no injuries.

A month later in New York, Rangga and Roberto gives their employee Donna a raise, and in gratitude she hugs him; just as Cinta unexpectedly enters the café. Misinterpreting the situation, Cinta runs away. Rangga gives chase, straightening the situation and they express their love for each other, and share a passionate kiss in a snowy Central Park, united at last. Before the credits, Rangga and Cinta hold what appears to be their baby, until Mamet comes and asks them to return his new baby.

This positive reception of the short proved that the 2002's cult classic teen romance remained popular in Indonesia. Finally, in March 2015, after months of speculations and rumours, Mira Lesmana the short's director and producer of Ada Apa Dengan Cinta? confirmed that a feature sequel was on the works.
