The alluring Maya will seduce both the brothers. While Rudra doesn’t believe in love anymore, he still falls for Maya who plays hard to get and is a challenge he must take up. For Rishi, Maya is an innocent older woman, a damsel in distress, who he falls for. Maya, meanwhile, plans her next move to destroy them both.

Beyhadh has successfully established the genre of Thriller series on Indian Television. This season is coming with a promise that Maya will go a notch higher and entertain the audience with her unpredictable mindset.

Sony Entertainment Television as a GEC has always been ahead of its time when it comes to showcasing unique content. Our association with Sony goes back to the time when we launched season 1 of Beyhadh. The show did well and came as a breath of fresh air for the audience. With the second season, we are returning with a completely new story that is going to leave our audience by surprise.

Actor Ashish Chaudhary essays the character of Mritunjay Roy aka MJ
When I first came across the show’s script, I knew I am going to love it as it looked extremely promising and worth applauding. I am playing the character of MJ, a multi-millionaire who is a megalomaniac. It is refreshing to step into the shoes of a different personality altogether. I was excited for the role as soon as I came across the show’s concept and my character sketch.
Actor Shivin Narang essays the character of Rudra Roy
With this show coming my way, I am geared up for an exciting roller coaster ride full of learning and great experiences. While I have previously been part of a lot of shows on television, this is the first time I am a part of a thriller drama. I am glad that I’ve got an opportunity to share the screen space with such talented and experienced actors in the industry – Jennifer and Ashish.
