Taaza Khabar was always intended to push the boundaries of storytelling in India, blending humor with suspense, while also featuring a relatable set of characters. To see it not only compete with but surpass global and regional favorites is a testament to the growing appetite for fresh, high-quality content here. Bhuvan has truly outdone himself, and with such an incredible cast that includes Jaaved Jaaferi, Shriya Pilgaonkar, and others, it’s no surprise that audiences have embraced Season 2 with open arms. We’re beyond thrilled with the response, and this is only motivating us to bring even more impactful stories to the screen.”
