Press Release:

When you pursue vengeance blindly, it blurs the line between right and wrong. With this vengeance in her eyes, Maya is all set to return on 2nd December at 9 pm Mon to Fri on Sony Entertainment Television with a brand-new season of Beyhadh2. Produced by LSD productions, this franchise will raise the bar high for dark thriller dramas on Indian Television.

In the current era of social media, when anonymity is a luxury, comes a story of secrets and deceits. Maya, who was adored for her obsessive love in the last season of Beyhadh, will be seen in a mysterious and intriguing avatar. Jennifer Winget plays an elusive thriller author Maya Jaisingh who becomes a sensation when her first novel becomes a bestseller, yet nobody has even seen her face, she has zero social media presence and her identity is guarded. This time it is a story of love gone nuclear, of an innocent turning into a monster, this is the story of Maya who would stop at nothing to avenge herself. And everyone in the path will have to become collateral damage!

Donning all black attires throughout the season, she will be meticulous, unpredictable, calculative. The show will also see Ashish Chowdhry playing the multi-millionaire Mrityunjay Roy aka MJ who is a megalomaniac and believes money can buy everything. He thinks he is invincible and can overpower anyone. Yet, he is god-fearing and loves his two sons Rudra played by Shivin and Rishi played by Rajat Verma. While Rudra is a charmer, who has faced betrayal in love in the past, Rishi is happy-go-lucky guy.

The alluring Maya will seduce both the brothers. While Rudra doesn’t believe in love anymore, he still falls for Maya who plays hard to get and is a challenge he must take up. For Rishi, Maya is an innocent older woman, a damsel in distress, who he falls for. Maya, meanwhile, plans her next move to destroy them both. But, why is she playing the two brothers at the same time? What happened in the past that there is so much hatred in her? Where will she stop? Are they mere pawns in her road to revenge? How does she plan to take her revenge and why?

The show has an ensemble cast that includes renowned names from Indian Television Industry. Melanie Nazrat will be playing Antara, MJ's wife and Roopa Divetia as Nilanjana Roy, MJ's mother in law. Apart from the Roys, cast is inclusive of Nikunj Malik as Deeya, Hassan Zaidi and Gurpreet Bedia as Aamir and Nargis, respectively.

COMMENTS:

Ashish Golwalkar, Head – Programming at Sony Entertainment Television (SET)

Beyhadh has successfully established the genre of Thriller series on Indian Television. This season is coming with a promise that Maya will go a notch higher and entertain the audience with her unpredictable mindset. The character of Maya has already generated a lot of curiosity in the audience, and I am sure they will love the mystery of her character once the show unfolds.

Prateek, Producer – LSD Films

Sony Entertainment Television as a GEC has always been ahead of its time when it comes to showcasing unique content. Our association with Sony goes back to the time when we launched season 1 of Beyhadh. The show did well and came as a breath of fresh air for the audience. With the second season, we are returning with a completely new story that is going to leave our audience by surprise.

Actress Jennifer Winget, essays the character of Maya Jaisingh

Maya is not just a character anymore, it is a feeling! The love that we got in season one has definitely encouraged us to come back with an edgier, bold and Mystical Maya. This time we will go extreme lengths to seek revenge.

Actor Ashish Chaudhary, essays the character of Mritunjay Roy aka MJ

When I first came across the show’s script, I knew I am going to love it as it looked extremely promising and worth applauding. I am playing the character of MJ, a multi-millionaire who is a megalomaniac. It is refreshing to step into the shoes of a different personality altogether. I was excited for the role as soon as I came across the show’s concept and my character sketch.

Actor Shivin Narang, essays the character of Rudra Roy

With this show coming my way, I am geared up for an exciting roller coaster ride full of learning and great experiences. While I have previously been part of a lot of shows on television, this is the first time I am a part of a thriller drama. I am glad that I’ve got an opportunity to share the screen space with such talented and experienced actors in the industry – Jennifer and Ashish.
