As the trailer has dropped, viewers are quite excited to watch the show soon on OTT. But the excitement level went up, when the creator of the series, Neeraj Pandey, gave a playful hint of Sourav Ganguly’s involvement. When asked about rumours of Sourav Ganguly’s cameo, Neeraj Pandey at the trailer launch event, said “As far as Sourav is concerned… keep looking.” But he did not give any concrete details about the cameo but has definitely fueled the rumours.

While talking about his personal connection with Kolkata, Neeraj added “I was born and brought up in Kolkata. This played an important role in me choosing Kolkata for the second chapter in the series… there was a personal bias.”
