Samir Kochhar roped in for Four More Shots Please season 2

Samir Kochhar has added one more interesting project to his bouquet. The talented actor has been cast to play a pivotal part in the second season of Amazon Prime Video hit Four More Shots Please.

The first season of the web-show, which starred Kirti Kulhari, Sayani Gupta, Gurbani and Maanvi Gagroo, received phenomenal response from the audience, and now the makers are coming up with the second season of the series.


“I have just started shooting for the above Nupur Asthana-directed venture. I play a smart, charming lawyer who does not like to lose. I can’t reveal much, but yes, he will be a principal character, impacting the life of one of the four protagonists, essayed by Kirti Kulhari, Sayani Gupta, Gurbani and Maanvi Gagroo,” says Samir Kochhar.

Besides Four More Shots Please 2, Kochhar will also be seen in Netflix’ Sacred Games 2 and ghost series Typewriter. The actor says that he is enjoying being a part of web-space as it gives him an opportunity to collaborate with some great directors.

“I am having a good time shooting with the girls who all are very chilled out. The best part of doing web series is that I am getting to associate with some great directors who are doing totally different kinds of stuff. While Nupur is too good in Four More Shots Please, Sujoy Ghosh opened my eyes to new forms of acting in the horror series, Typewriter,” he adds.

Talking about Sacred Games 2, the actor says, “My character really came into his own in the second half of the premiere season 1 and I will continue to play a pivotal role in its sequel as well.”

  • Netflix board approved a $25bn share repurchase on 22 April, with no expiry date.
  • The move follows Netflix abandoning its $83bn bid for Warner Bros' streaming and studio assets.
  • Netflix stock has fallen more than 10 per cent since weak Q2 guidance, closing at $93.24 on 22 April.
Netflix has approved a $25 billion share buyback programme, using capital it had kept aside for its failed bid to buy Warner Bros.
The board gave the green light on 22 April, with the decision disclosed in an SEC filing the next day.
There is no expiry date on the programme. It comes on top of an existing December 2024 buyback that still had $6.8 billion left as of 31 March.

Earlier this year, Netflix pulled out of an $83 billion deal to acquire Warner Bros' streaming and studio assets after Paramount Skydance made a rival bid for Warner Bros. Discovery. Paramount then paid Netflix a $2.8 billion exit fee.

Co-CEOs Ted Sarandos and Greg Peters had already said the company would restart share buybacks once the deal was off.

Netflix shares have had a rough ride. They hit an all-time high of $134.12 in June 2025, then fell more than 40 per cent when the Warner Bros deal was announced.
