Netflix has announced that its acclaimed crime-drama series Kohrra will return for a second season on February 11.
After a critically acclaimed first season that was widely praised for its nuanced character-driven storytelling, the new instalment promises a fresh investigation set once again against Punjab’s bleak, wintry landscape, where silences often reveal more than confessions.
“Dhundh mein sach kho jaata hai.Aaiye iss naye shehar mein, sach ko dhundne. Watch Kohrra 2, starring Mona Singh and Barun Sobti, out 11 February, only on Netflix,” the streamer wrote alongside a poster of the show.
Actor Barun Sobti will return as assistant Sub-Inspector Amarpal Garundi with Mona Singh joining the franchise in a key new role.
Season two will see Garundi leaving Jagrana behind and taking charge at the Dalerpura Police Station, where he reports to a new commanding officer, Dhanwant Kaur, played by Singh.
Created and written by Gunjit Chopra, Diggi Sisodia and Sudip Sharma, Kohrra is produced by A Film Squad Production in association with Act Three.
The second season marks a creative evolution for the show, with Sharma, also known for his work with Prime Video show Paatal Lok, stepping into the director’s role alongside Faisal Rahman.
The first season of Kohrra follows the death of an NRI and explores its impact on those investigating the crime and the families affected by it. Also starring Suvinder Vicky, Varun Badola, Harleen Sethi, Rachel Shelly and Manish Chaudhary, the six-episode series hit Netflix on July 15, 2023.
