Here's a good news for the fans of Netflix originals we series Sacred Games as Netflix India on Friday announced the second season of the hugely popular crime drama series with a teaser.
The teaser of the show, shared on the official Twitter account of the streaming giant, didn’t reveal any footage from second season, but implied that Nawazuddin Siddiqui’s memorable Ganesh Gaitonde will return in some manner.
The 45-second long video shows a mandala spinning around- the recurring motif from season 1, as several characters from the show provide a voice over.
“Do you believe in God,” asks Ganesh Gaitonde, the larger-than-life gangster who died in the first episode of season one, but returned in flashbacks to narrate his own story. We also hear the voices of Saif Ali Khan’s character Sartaj Singh, Neeraj Kabi as Parulkar, and Radhika Apte as RAW agent Anjali Mathur, in the background.
At the end of the teaser, the mandala stops spinning to reveal a new title design for the season two, with numerical ‘2’ in the Devnagri script.
Watch the teaser here:
The first season of the show, consisting of eight episodes, traced the fallout of Gaitonde’s death, which sent Inspector Sartaj Singh on a race-against-time mission to uncover a potential terror attack on Mumbai.
Sartaj Singh had been given 25 days to solve the mystery, which included a godman, played by Pankaj Tripathi, who is rumoured to have a bigger role in future episodes.
Several fan theories have come up in the past which have speculated where the plot of the second season will go.
With some anticipating a nuclear attack and others wondering if Gaitonde is dead at all, and 14 days of his 25 days still remaining and about a third of Vikram Chandra’s source novel still unexplored, the remaining episodes will answer all the questions that we all have.
Saif Ali Khan had earlier teased that Sartaj’s personal life would be further explored in season 2. The actor had also disclosed that four seasons of eight episodes each had been planned.
Co-directed by Vikramaditya Motwane and Anurag Kashyap, Sacred Games is Netflix’s first Indian original series.
