The multi-starrer show has garnered a massive following and has been the subject of much discussion and speculation. Recently, it was announced that the series would be returning for a second season, sending fans into a frenzy of excitement and anticipation.

Heeramandi 2 Update
According to Manisha Koirala, the shoot for the second season of Heeramandi: The Diamond Bazaar is slated to commence next year, and the entire cast and crew are eagerly awaiting the opportunity to reunite and bring this captivating story to life once again.
When questioned about the impact of the first season's success on her career, Koirala's face lit up with a warm smile as she revealed that while there are indeed several scripts currently under consideration, she prefers to maintain a discreet silence until a project is officially finalised. This hint has undoubtedly piqued the interest of fans and industry insiders alike, who are now eagerly anticipating the announcement of Manisha Koirala's upcoming projects.
Earlier, in June, Sanjay Leela Bhansali said in a conversation with Variety, “It takes a lot to make a series. This one has taken a lot. After ‘Gangubai’ released in February 2022, from that to now every single day I have worked without a break. So the responsibility is huge on the series.”
“In Heeramandi 2, the women now come from Lahore to the film world. They leave Lahore after the partition and most of them settle in the Mumbai film industry or Kolkata film industry. So that journey in the bazaar remains the same. They still have to dance and sing, but this time for the producers and not for the nawabs. So that’s the second season we are planning, let’s see where it goes," he further added.
