Sacred Games

Season : 2
Genre : Crime Thriller
Language : Hindi
Network : Netflix

Two years before,when Sacred Games aired,it was an instant hit.A game changer to be precise..Many other series came,but none of them was able to create an impact like 'Sacred Games'.Many things happened while we were waiting for the second season - like the production house closing down -rumors that there will be no second season.Anyway,finally,we got the second season on Aug 15,2019.I was on a tour and was able to start it only by Sunday night and finished it with in two days..What a ride it has been....So let's look what the second season of India's first major Netflix series offers..


Just like the first season,story is shown in two time periods.First,the story of Gaithonde ( Nawazuddin Siddiqui) set in the past and second story of Sartaj (Saif Ali Khan),set in the present. Both stories begins exactly where the first season ended.It explores what happened to Gaithonde after he was released from jail,how he joined hands with Kusum (Amruta Subhash),a raw agent,to find his way back to Bombay and how this all lead him to his 'tisare baap'-Guruji (Pankaj Tripathi).Guruji,who was planning to end the dark time -kaliyug - and to create a world for the pure -Satyug. A plan which lead to the present situation in Mumbai,where Sartaj and entire police department is trying to find out about the threat that will destroy the city.As he investigates,Sartaj realizes that he is also a part of the plan which was set in motion,years ago..


The first season was more like a gangster story mixed with police story.This season is different. Even if it starts slow,after four episodes second season,changes into a thrilling ride which ends with an open ending climax which allows the viewer to interpret it as they like...

Oh what I think? I will use one line -'Aham Brahmasmi'-I am the ultimate power
(Once you watch it,you will understand.Otherwise,it will turn into a spoiler and ruin the fun,So,watch it..)

A second season with brilliant performances from,the old and new cast, offers the viewer a great
time..Loved it...
