The Indian thriller series, Sacred Games, based on Vikram Chandra’s novel of the same name is all set to return with its second season. And with the show, returns gangster Ganesh Gaitonde, essayed by Nawazuddin Siddiqui. The actor, whose gangster avatar became popular the instant series hit Netflix, will be back but with more layers to his character.

A source close to the series reveals, “In Season 2, it will be more internal and the viewers will see different layers to this complicated character. While Nawaz has done many memorable roles in the past,  but Gaitonde in Season 2 will be a show stealer as this character will lead the entire show.”

The Netflix India original Sacred Games centers primarily around two main characters — Mumbai police officer Sartaj Singh (Saif Ali Khan) and Ganesh Gaitonde.

On the work front, Nawaz will also be seen in his brother Shamas’ film Bole Chudiyaan.
