Popular YouTuber and content creator Bhuvan Bam is all set to bring back his much-loved series Taaza Khabar for a second season. The show, which gained a massive following during its first season, will continue to feature an ensemble cast including Shriya Pilgaonkar, Mahesh Manjrekar, Deven Bhojani, Shilpa Shukla, Prathamesh Parab, and Nitya Mathur. The highly anticipated second season is scheduled to release on Disney+ Hotstar on September 27.
Expressing his excitement about the upcoming season, Bhuvan Bam, who plays the character of Vasant Gawde, shared in a press note from the streaming giant, “Taaza Khabar is just not a series, it depicts the graph of my life. Playing Vasya was effortless because for most parts he is a mirror to me. His ambition to reach the stars and his zeal to live a better life and serve his family to the fullest is all I ever dreamt of. I am so grateful to the audiences for the outpouring of love they have showered on Vasant Gawade on Disney+ Hotstar. This time, they will experience newer complexities in the character and I can’t wait for audiences to witness that.”
Producer Rohit Raj also shared his thoughts on what viewers can expect from the upcoming season. “We were super stoked and overwhelmed to see the amount of love for our labour of love. I have always looked at Taaza Khabar as a rags-to-riches journey, with a twist and local flavor of Mumbai. Our sole vision for Taaza Khabar as a franchise is to draw experiences from our daily simpleton life, elaborate on them, and have subtle takes on them. Looking at Bhuvan’s journey through Taaza Khabar has been so enriching from an acting perspective, his journey is only going to grow onwards and upwards from here,” he said.
Produced by Rohit Raj and Bhuvan Bam under the BB Ki Vines Productions banner, Taaza Khabar is directed by Himank Gaur and written by the duo Hussain and Abbas Dalal. The series, which combines elements of drama, humor, and local Mumbai flavor, is poised to take fans on another thrilling journey with its upcoming season.
