After delivering one of the most gripping performances on OTT with Farzi, Shahid Kapoor is all set to return as Sunny in the much-awaited second season. Fans who were left hanging by the cliffhanger ending of Season 1 can finally breathe a sigh of relief — reports suggest that Farzi Season 2 will begin filming in December 2025, with a planned release in the second half of 2026.
Farzi: A Record-Breaking Debut
Released in early 2023 on Amazon Prime Video, Farzi quickly climbed the charts to become the most-watched Hindi web series on the platform that year, amassing 37.1 million views. Created by the acclaimed filmmaker duo Raj & DK, known for hits like The Family Man and Guns & Gulaabs, the show merged dark crime, art, and action into a nail-biting narrative.
What to Expect in Season 2
According to a recent report by Pinkvilla, Raj & DK are currently wrapping up their project Rakht Brahmand. Once that concludes, the duo will dive into Farzi Season 2 pre-production, with shooting set to start in December.
“The Farzi sequel will see a face-off between Shahid Kapoor and Vijay Sethupathi, along with Kay Kay Menon returning as the villainous Mansoor,” a source told Mid-Day.
The story is expected to pick up right from where it left off — with Sunny (Shahid Kapoor) burning down the printing press and severing ties with Mansoor, and Michael (Vijay Sethupathi) tightening his grip as the head of the anti-counterfeiting unit CCFART.
Returning Cast and Crew
Joining Shahid Kapoor once again will be:
- Vijay Sethupathi as Michael
- Raashii Khanna as Megha
- Kay Kay Menon as Mansoor
- Bhuvan Arora, Amol Palekar, Kubbra Sait, Regina Cassandra, and Zakir Hussain in key roles
What About The Other Raj & DK Shows?
While The Family Man Season 3 is confirmed for a late 2025 premiere, another Amazon Prime series by Raj & DK, Citadel: Honey Bunny, has reportedly been shelved and won’t be moving forward with a second season.
