Suniel Shetty returns for ‘Hunter' season 2, Jackie Shroff joins the cast
The show revolves around Shetty's Sinha going against the crime world to save his daughter. In season two, Sinha 'gets pulled into a new maze that is far more twisted faced against a villain who is charming, unflinching, and impossible to read.' according to a press release.
New Delhi, Jul 10 (PTI) Actor Suniel Shetty is all set to return as ACP Vikram Sinha in the second season of Amazon MX Player series 'Hunter', which just released a teaser.
Shroff and Shetty are friends in real life and have worked together on movies such as 'Border', 'Hulchul', 'Apna Sapna Money Money', 'Aan' and many others.
Shroff, who plays the negative character of the Salesman, said he was hooked when the role was offered to him.
'He's layered, smooth, calculated, and you never quite know what he's thinking. It was the kind of character that gives you a lot of room to play with. Season 2 packs a solid punch, but it's also deeply rooted in emotions. Sharing the screen with Anna (Shetty) again, but this time on opposite sides, was a treat. Hope our bhidus (friends) who watch us enjoy this battle of minds and morals,' Shroff said.
Directed by Prince Dhiman and Alok Batra, the crime thriller is produced by Yoodlee Films.
'Hunter' season two also stars Anusha Dandekar and Barkha Bisht and will soon premiere on Amazon MX Player. PTI SMR BK SMR BK BK BK

Suniel Shetty reveals why filming Border's 'suhaagraat' song was unforgettable: 'Athiya had a fever...'
Suniel Shetty shared a memorable experience shooting 'To Chalun' from Border, revealing initial nervousness about the song's sensitive nature. A passing MIG jet inspired a key scene, symbolizing duty above all. Adding to the emotional intensity, Shetty was deeply concerned about his young daughter Athiya's high fever, ensuring her safe return to Mumbai amidst a storm while filming the song. Suniel Shetty recently opened up about one of the most memorable moments of his film career—shooting the romantic track To Chalun from Border (1997). While the film is known for its patriotic intensity, Shetty revealed that the emotional depth of this particular song, coupled with a personal crisis involving his young daughter Athiya, has etched it in his memory forever. Nervous About Shooting a 'Suhaagraat' Song While speaking on a podcast with Pinkvilla, Suniel shared that he was initially nervous about filming the 'suhaagraat' song To Chalun in Border (1997). However, once director JP Dutta narrated the track to him, Shetty knew only Dutta could handle it with such sensitivity. He called it the most memorable shoot of his career, praising the way it was beautifully filmed. Shetty also recalled a key moment during the shoot of To Chalun when the team was unsure how to portray the soldier's emotional farewell to his wife. As they discussed the scene, a MIG fighter jet flew overhead. That powerful visual gave director JP Dutta the clarity he needed, and he immediately knew how to frame the shot, Shetty revealed. Patriotism at the Core of the Scene Explaining how the scene unfolded, Suniel said that as his character looks up at the sky, the sound of the MIG symbolizes the ever-present call of duty. The soldier, reminded of his responsibilities, marches forward without looking back—reinforcing Border's central message that the nation comes above everything else. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Elegant New Scooters For Seniors In 2024: The Prices May Surprise You Mobility Scooter | Search Ads Learn More Undo A Father's Worry Behind the Scenes He also recalled a personal moment that made the shoot even more unforgettable.

Throughout the shoot, he kept calling to check if she had reached safely and was receiving proper care.
