Kohrra is all set to return with its much-anticipated second season, and the makers promise a darker, more layered investigative journey. Led once again by creator and writer Sudip Sharma, the crime drama brings back Barun Sobti as Assistant Sub-Inspector Amarpal Garundi, while welcoming Mona Singh, Rannvijay Singh, Pooja Bhamrrah, Anurag Arora, and Prayrak Mehta to the expanding universe.
In an exclusive conversation with IMDb, key members of the cast and crew including Sudip Sharma, Faisal Rahman, Mona Singh, and Barun Sobti spoke candidly about the creative process and the challenges of raising the bar after a widely acclaimed first season.
Mona Singh, who takes on a powerful new role in Season 2, shared how deeply she immersed herself in preparation. Talking about her workshops, she said that meeting real female police officers in Punjab played a crucial role in shaping her performance. She explained that observing how women navigate authority and command respect within a largely masculine work culture gave her invaluable insight. Beyond workshops, she repeatedly revisited the script to internalise the emotional and psychological layers of her character.
Recalling her most challenging day on set, Mona described a night shoot that pushed her far outside her comfort zone. She admitted feeling nervous as it involved action-heavy sequences, something she had not attempted before. With guidance from action choreographer Amrit Pal and encouragement from Sudip Sharma, she slowly found her confidence. A simple direction to not let fear show on her face helped her unlock the intensity the scene demanded. That moment, she said, marked a turning point where she truly began to enjoy the physicality and discipline required for the role.
Barun Sobti, returning as the much-loved Garundi, addressed the pressure that often comes with sequels. He shared that while many shows struggle to live up to a strong first season, he believes Kohrra Season 2 has the potential to surpass expectations and offer something even more compelling.
Sudip Sharma, meanwhile, reflected on the long journey behind the scenes. He revealed that the team spent nearly two and a half years developing the new season, from writing to execution. For him, the real pressure was not about comparisons or reviews but about doing justice to the time, effort, and emotional investment poured into the project.
With intense performances, grounded realism, and a deeper exploration of crime and character, Kohrra Season 2 aims to build on its gritty reputation while pushing its narrative further. The full IMDb On The Scene interview offers a closer look at the dedication behind the series.
