Know About Cartel Season 2: Release Date, Cast And Crew
Cartel, the Hindi-language crime thriller web series created by Ekta Kapoor and produced by ALT Balaji, made a significant impact in the Indian OTT space when it premiered on MX Player in 2021. With its gripping storyline, stellar performances, and intense action sequences, Cartel quickly gained a massive fan base. Viewers were left on the edge of their seats by the season finale, and since then, there has been growing anticipation surrounding Cartel Season 2.
Will There Be a Cartel Season 2?
The short answer is yes—Cartel Season 2 is on the cards. Although it was initially announced to be released on 2 January 2022, the launch was unexpectedly delayed. One key reason behind the delay appears to be the transition and management shift within MX Player, the platform where Season 1 premiered. Despite the long gap and uncertainty, recent updates confirm that Season 2 is in the pipeline and will be released soon.
When is Cartel Season 2 Expected to Release?
The official release date has not been confirmed by the creators yet. However, reports suggest that Cartel Season 2 is likely to be released between April and May 2024. The production delays over the past two years have been frustrating for fans, but the good news is that the wait may finally be coming to an end.
Is There a Trailer for Cartel Season 2?
No trailer has been released for Cartel Season 2 yet. Since filming has reportedly not begun or is still in the early stages, there is no teaser or official footage available. Fans are advised to keep an eye on the official pages of ALT Balaji and MX Player for announcements. Until then, viewers can revisit the Season 1 trailer for a refresher.
Who Will Return in Cartel Season 2?
Though the full cast list hasn't been officially confirmed, it is expected that many main characters from Season 1 will return based on how the story left off. Likely returning actors include:
- Rithvik Dhanjani as Abhay Angre
- Supriya Pathak as Rani Mai
- Tanuj Virwani as Ex-Major Arjun
- Jitendra Joshi as Madhukar Mhatre
- Divya Agarwal as Grizzey
- Monica Dogra, Sushrii Mishra, Samir Soni, Shubhrajyoti Barat, and many more
This ensemble cast is expected to bring back the intensity and complexity that made Season 1 so popular.
What Could The Possible Plot of Cartel Season 2 Be?
Season 1 wrapped up in spectacular style with a cliffhanger, the battle for the underworld, and the end of one of the Gang Lords in a gruesome attack. The show followed along with five gang lords in Mumbai's underworld. The five gang lords operate under a tenuous balance of power. So, with the cliffhanger done and dealt with, we can expect the subsequent seasons to pick up from that cliffhanger and likely reveal the repercussions of that on how the surviving gang lord leaders deal with not only betrayal but enemies, new and shifting alliances.
If you watched the first season, enjoyed it, and are now waiting for Season 2, expect more bloodshed, confrontations, and unexpected twists as Cartel dives even deeper into the hazardous world of organized crime ahead of the growing organized crime culture in society.
Final Words
While Cartel Season 2 may be delayed, but is not cancelled. If viewers do enough talking about it and the producers see just how much demand there is for Cartel once the public sees an increase in seasons, then it'll happen. We trust that the creators of Cartel are going to do the best possible job in the next season to try to live up to the hype. Please look for official updates regarding trailers, release dates, and updates regarding the series from the producers. The wait may be long - but it should be worth it!
