Special Ops 2 Trailer: Kay Kay Menon Pitted Against Tahir Raj Bhasin, Tackles Cyber-Terrorism
Last Updated:
Special Ops 2 Trailer: Kay Kay Menon returns as Himmat Singh after 5 years, tackling cyber-terrorism. Tahir Raj Bhasin joins as the antagonist, with Prakash Raj also in the cast.
Kay Kay Menon is back as the fearless and calm Himmat Singh, this time, ready to tackle cyber-terrorism. The concept is timely and apt, especially at a time when artificial intelligence is at its peak. This time, Himmat Singh will be pitted against Tahir Raj Bhasin, who plays the antagonist in the series. Prakash Raj has also joined the cast.
The trailer of Special Ops 2 begins with how AI, if not utilised properly, can turn fatal. Himmat Singh is called for another mission after new threats emerge. Karan Tacker, who was a part of Himmat's core team, returns in the second season. Quite like the gripping first season which released in 2020, Part 2 is expected to be a blend of power, politics and action. It releases on July 11. 'This time, everyone is a Target! Cyber-Terrorism vs. Himmat Singh and his squad," read the description on JioHotstar's Instagram page. Take a look:
Fans expressed their excitement in the comment section. They wrote, 'One and only Kay Kay Sir", 'Finally the most awaited date is out", 'Finally the wait is over", 'Lezzgooo woohoo!!", 'Back with Bang", 'Finally Trailer is here", and others.
At the trailer launch, Kay Kay Menon was asked about reprising his role as Himmat Singh – a character known for his composed yet relentless pursuit of truth in the face of cyber terrorism. He was also quizzed about how closely he relates to the character and whether there are any differences between him and Himmat.
Reacting to it, Kay Kay Menon said, 'I am not even in the K.G class of cyber, I don't know anything about it as Kay Kay Menon. So today, Himmat Singh, who knows all about cyber and it is quite a task." He stated that everyone helped him master the role. 'I ask people when I have to post on social media. I ask them how it is to be done, so I am that bad," he shared.

Ram Kapoor admits he is ‘guilty' of making inappropriate remarks after getting dropped from Mistry promotions: ‘Can't be my obnoxious normal self'
Actor Ram Kapoor was dropped from all promotional activities for his upcoming show Mistry after he was accused of making a series of sexually coloured and inappropriate remarks to crew members during the promotions. The events came to light on Tuesday and now, in a new interview, Ram has presented his side of the story, where he confessed to the accusations against him. Explaining his behaviour, he said that 'he tends to become bindass' when he's around people he feels comfortable with, and added that he intends to apologise to everyone he has offended. In a chat with The Times of India, Ram said that he was 'guilty as charged' and proceeded to explain his side of the story. He said he was caught up in the moment and did not realise that his words could offend those around him. He mentioned that if he had any inclination how his behaviour was being interpreted, he 'would have dealt with it right away.' Addressing the specific incident where he allegedly told a female crew member that her outfit was 'distracting,' Ram said he had also made a similar comment to male crew members who were in his line of sight. He questioned that if he saw the comment as inappropriate, 'why would I say it openly in a hall full of media people?' He insisted that while his words come from a 'harmless space,' he has realised can't be his 'obnoxious normal self' around team members who are half his age as they were offended, and that is 'not acceptable.' He acknowledged the seriousness of the situation and said his fans and his son look up to him, which makes the entire episode even more disappointing. Ram also added that he respected Jio Hotstar's decision to drop him from all promotional duties once the complaints came to light, and accepted that this taught him a lesson.

According to a source present at the event, issues first surfaced when Ram began interrupting interviews, allegedly 'mansplaining' and answering questions meant for Mona. But matters worsened when he made an inappropriate comment to a member of the Jio Hotstar marketing team. As a journalist was preparing to interview him, he reportedly asked how many interviews were left for the day and then said, 'I feel like I've been gang-raped by elephants.' After a journalist objected, Ram insisted it was a joke and that his comment wasn't directed at anyone in particular. However, another incident followed shortly after. While getting ready for another interview, he said to a marketing team member: 'Which position should I take now? Doggy or missionary?' These remarks, combined with a comment about a crew member's dress being 'distracting,' led to internal discussions at Jio Hotstar. Eventually, the platform decided to remove Ram from all remaining interviews. The following day, Mona Singh continued promotions alone.

Ram Kapoor Breaks Silence On Being Dropped From Mistry Promotions Due To Inappropriate Sexual Comments: "Guilty As Charged"
New Delhi: Ram Kapoor received severe backlash after news of him passing inappropriate sexual comments during the promotional activities of his upcoming JioHotstar series Mistry was brought to light. Ram Kapoor has now reacted to the allegations and confessed to being "guilty as charged". What's Happening Ram Kapoor has finally opened up about the incident and requested everyone to give him a chance to justify himself. He told ETimes, "Let me begin by saying that everything I've been accused of saying - I have said it. So yes, I am guilty as charged. But this is what I want people to understand, when I'm in a space where I feel comfortable, I become my usual, bindass self. That's just how I've always been. Everyone who's worked with me knows that I never intend to offend." Furthermore, he added that he was oblivious to how it might have made some people feel uncomfortable, as he stated, "I didn't feel that even once throughout the day. We were laughing and joking. If I had gotten the whiff that they were offended, I would have dealt with it right away." He elaborated, "If I felt it was inappropriate, why would I say it openly in a hall full of media people? My character has been questioned for the first time in 25 years, so do acknowledge my justification." He concluded by saying that he is aware that he cannot be his "obnoxious normal self". The Incident According to a Mid-Day report, the Bade Achhe Lagte Hain alum passed these questionable remarks at an event in Mumbai last week following which the top management at the streamer took the call of keeping the actor away from the series promotions. People, who claim to be eyewitnesses of the incident which reportedly took place on June 19, said Ram Kapoor made the members of the JioHotstar team uncomfortable with his comments loaded with sexual innuendo. A JioHotstar source insider said, "The tone and content of his 'jokes' were unprofessional. He had back-to-back interviews that day. Referring to the work pressure at one point, he said he feels 'gang-raped'. This remark was made while one journalist was setting up her mic." The journalist also corroborated the episode. Following this event, Ram Kapoor reportedly again made some unacceptable off-colour remarks about the outfits and the family of the JioHotstar and public relations team. "He looked at my colleague's dress and referring to its length, said, 'The clothes are distracting'," mentioned one of the executives. "It didn't hit immediately, but when it did later that evening, we started recounting the number of offensive things he said. He told one of our male colleagues that his mother should have faked a headache and he shouldn't have been born. He made references to sex positions." On June 20, the JioHotstar senior leadership was roped in. According to the Mid-Day report, after internal discussions with the streamer's HR team, it was decided that Ram Kapoor's remaining promotional appearances would be cancelled. In A Nutshell Ram Kapoor has shared his side of the story amid the ongoing controversy of his inappropriate sexual remarks during the promotions of his upcoming project Mistry. He has admitted to having made certain distasteful statements and how he didn't realise that it would make the crew present, uncomfortable.
