Nawazuddin Siddiqui, who'll be reprising his role in the sequel, said, "Jatil Yadav is a character very close to me, flawed and restless, yet relentless in the pursuit of justice. In the sequel, Raat Akeli Hai: The Bansal Murders, he faces a case that tests everything he believes in. Smita and Honey have created a world that feels real and raw, where every clue hides a secret. Coming back as Inspector Jatil Yadav feels like returning to unfinished business. I’m grateful to RSVP, MacGuffin Pictures, and Netflix for giving me the chance to explore new layers of this character. I am excited for audiences to see more from the man behind the uniform."

What To Expect From Raat Akeli Hai Sequel?

Raat Akeli Hai: The Bansal Murders is set a few years after the events of the previous movie, which was released in 2020 to a favorable reception. It follows Inspector Jatil Yadav as he becomes involved in another intricate investigation—this time, a terrifying case of cold-blooded murder. As a result, long-kept secrets within a prominent family are revealed. Jatil is forced to face the difficult balance between truth and consequence once more as the mystery becomes more complex.

Raat Akeli Hai: The Bansal Murders pushes the limits of the Indian crime thriller genre while carrying on the tradition of the first movie with its multi-layered storytelling, atmospheric tension, and stirring performances. Soon, Raat Akeli Hai: The Bansal Murders will be available exclusively on Netflix.
