Actresses Anuja Sathe and Neha Chauhan have joined Huma Qureshi and Sohum Shah in Maharani 2. They will be seen in pivotal roles in the series.
Huma Qureshi and Sohum Shah-starrer political drama Maharani is returning with its second season. The series is centred around a female lead, Rani Bharti (Huma), who navigates the patriarchal hurdles to emerge as a formidable political face. Viewers have been eagerly waiting for the next season of the show. Putting an end to the audience’s wait, the show is back with an exciting Season 2 with Neha Chauhan and Anuja Sathe joining the ensemble cast.
Stepping into the shoes of a political candidate, Anuja Sathe will be seen as Kirti Singh, who becomes Bheema Bharti’s (Sohum Shah) confidante. Speaking about her role, she said, “I have always been very lucky when it comes to roles. Keeping the trend alive, the audience will see me in a new avatar in this show. Kirti is totally opposite to how I am in real life, so it was an exciting and fulfilling experience for me as an actor. I had to be convincing while portraying the various shades of my character. The entire cast and crew have been very supportive, and I had a great time working with all of them.”
Neha Chauhan will be seen playing the role of Kalpana Kaul - an ambitious woman, running her own political consultancy firm called I-ACT. Talking about her role, Neha said, “I have been a big fan of the show since the first season, so it feels great to join such a stellar cast and work with the wonderful Subhash Kapoor Sir. My character will take things up a notch and catalyse plot twists that will unfold this season. I have never done anything like this before and am excited to see the audience’s reaction.”
Maharani 2 is directed by Ravindra Gautam, with Subhash Kapoor and Nandan Singh serving as showrunners and writers of the show. Headlined by Huma Qureshi, the show also features, Sohum Shah, Amit Sial, Vineet Kumar, Inaamulhaq, Dibyendu Bhattacharya, Kani Kasturi, Pramod Pathak and Vineet Kumar in prominent roles.
