Medical drama Mumbai Diaries is coming back with a new brand season
in which audience will see a return of its ensemble cast, including Konkona Sen
Sharma, Mohit Raina, Tina Desai, Shreya Dhanwanthary, Satyajeet Dubey, Natasha
Bharadwaj, Mrunmayee Deshpande and Prakash Belawadi.
Many newer members have joined the drama, including Parambrata
Chattopadhyay and Ridhi Dogra.
On Friday, the makers unveiled the trailer for the upcoming season,
which will unfold with the doctors, trainees, and staff of Bombay General
Hospital dealing with the aftermath of the terror attacks and their personal
struggles that follow, juxtaposing it against the devastation brought by the
Mumbai floods.
The trailer promises a thrilling season that raises the stakes with
a devastating deluge that threatens to submerge the city of Mumbai.
The staff at Bombay General Hospital once again needs to put aside
their personal issues; some of which threaten to destroy them, their
relationships and their very futures, to help a city survive.
They will have to come to terms with past demons and present
circumstances to try and stay afloat and do what they do best – save lives. Nikkhil
Advani has created the show.
Talking about it, Nikkhil said, “Mumbai Diaries is an intricately
woven medical drama that explores the trials and triumphs of our frontline
workers and the heroes of the medical community. After the overwhelming love
and acclaim received for Mumbai Diaries 26/11, we’ve upped the stakes this
season for our protagonists as they’re faced with challenges that will test
them on all fronts. We’re excited to be back with yet another collaboration
with Prime Video, and look forward to bringing Mumbai Diaries Season Two to
viewers across the world.”
Sharing her experience working on the show, Konkana said, “Working
once again on the sets of Mumbai Diaries was like coming home for me. It has
always been a rewarding and joyful experience to work with Nikkhil Advani.”
“Prime Video and Emmay Entertainment have raised the bar this time,
and it is evident in this season’s narrative, as it delves deeper into the
intricate web of relationships among the doctors, nurses, and staff, adding
layers of intrigue and drama. What’s particularly exciting for me is that my
character, Chitra, undergoes significant development in this season as she
comes face to face with her past. I am thankful for the love and appreciation
given to the first season and look forward to sharing the next chapter with
everyone,” she added.
The season 2 will drop on October 6 on Prime Video.
