Hostages Season 2 trailer out: Ronit Roy returns for an encore 

Disney+ Hotstar has released the trailer for Hostages 2. The upcoming season marks the return of Ronit Roy as SP Prithvi Singh. The Hotstar Special series will also feature Divya Dutta, Dino Morea, Shibani Dandekar and Shweta Basu Prasad.

The returning season has been directed by Sachin Kumar Krishan. Sudhir Mishra, who helmed the first season, has assumed the role of Series Director.

The storyline resumes shortly after revealing that CM Handa (Dalip Tahil) is indeed alive and Prithvi Singh has kidnapped the politician. However, an unfortunate chain of events ends up making Prithvi a hostage himself. 

“Hostages franchise is very close to my heart because of the unexpected nature of the narrative – it's explosive, twisted and will catch everyone by surprise,” Sudhir said. “Hostages Season 2 marks a journey with an intriguing turn of events and brings new faces, new secrets and new mysteries for the audience to explore and enjoy.” 

Ronit said it was humbling to know that his character was widely appreciated. “For me personally, I wanted to go beyond my own performance from the previous season and really explore the depths of this intense character where he goes from being entirely in control to losing that control and finding himself in a situation he can’t find a way out of. Hostages Season 2 is a finely crafted masterpiece and I’m eager to know what else is in store for Prithvi,” the actor said. 

Hostages 2 is produced by Applause Entertainment in association with Banijay Asia. The second season is set to premiere on September 9 on Disney+ Hotstar VIP.
