Confirmed: Saas Bina Sasural to return with season 2

With several successful television serials returning to the small screen for a second season, Sony Entertainment Television has also renewed one of its popular shows, Saas Bina Sasural, for season 2.

According to reports, Sony TV is planning to rope in a number of actors from the previous season for Saas Bina Sasural 2. Actors Darshan Jariwala and Rajendra Chawla have already been approached to step into the shoes of their characters Cheddilal Chaturvedi and Pashupatinath Chaturvedi respectively once again.


Confirming the development, Jariwala told an Indian publication, “Yes, I have been approached for the show. You will have to wait and watch to know if I will reprise the role or not. What piqued my interest about this role is that it is different. My character is a tech-savvy guy. At his age, he has discovered and taken a penchant for the fun aspect of the world of the internet. His physical age has nothing to do with the way he thinks and his outlook towards life.”

We also hear that the makers have decided to shoot the new season in front of a live audience. “The format of the show has also appealed to me. We are trying to go back to the quintessential sitcom. Had we not been hit by the pandemic, I would have loved to perform before a live audience. In fact, it is something we will definitely consider, once the fear of Coronavirus vanishes. This genre is different — here, you do not shoot scenes and piece them together at the edit table. Here, it is more about raw energy. It is a brilliant idea because people are afraid to go back to the real theatre. So, we are trying to bring theatre on TV,” added Darshan Jariwala.

News also has it that Aishwarya Sakhuja might return to reprise her role in Saas Bina Sasural 2. An official confirmation is awaited though.

'My Brilliant Career' review: Netflix makes a 125-year-old feminist story feel dangerously modern

Highlights

  • Netflix’s six-part series adapts Miles Franklin’s 1901 feminist novel
  • Phillipa Northeast stars as Sybylla Melvyn, a young writer determined to avoid the life chosen for her
  • The adaptation combines period drama with modern music, frank sexuality and stories of racism and social inequality

An erotic poem, a scandalised grandmother and a young woman with little interest in marriage make for an unexpectedly lively opening to My Brilliant Career. Netflix’s six-part adaptation of Miles Franklin’s 1901 novel wastes little time establishing that this will not be a restrained period drama.

Adapted by Liz Doran, the series follows Sybylla Melvyn, a fiercely independent young woman who dreams of becoming a writer. It follows Gillian Armstrong’s acclaimed 1979 film starring Judy Davis and Sam Neill, but brings a distinctly contemporary energy to Franklin’s story.
