As ckuan says all content purchased or downloaded with the old Apple ID will always be associated with that old ID. So to update apps you will need to enter the password for that old ID. If you want to avoid this your only alternative is to delete those apps and download them again with your new Apple ID. But this will remove all content of the apps from your phone and you will have to pay again for any apps the have a fee.
