‘Taaza Khabar’ S2, produced by Rohit Raj and Bhuvan Bam under the BB Ki Vines banner, has made history on the Indian OTT landscape, shattering all-time viewership records. Since its premiere on Disney+ Hotstar on September 26, 2024, the comedy thriller has garnered a remarkable 14 million views, captivating audiences across the nation.
This latest season not only delivers a gripping storyline and stellar performances but has also surpassed popular shows like ‘The Rings of Power’, which now ranks second, and ‘The Great Indian Kapil Show’, now in third place.
The show is led by the versatile Bhuvan Bam, joined by seasoned actors including Jaaved Jaaferi, Shriya Pilgaonkar, Prathamesh Parab, Mahesh Manjrekar, and Deven Bhojani, who all bring their unique energy to this intriguing comedy thriller.
Producer Rohit Raj expressed his excitement over this milestone achievement, stating, “Breaking viewership records is a dream come true for us. More than numbers, it’s the love from fans that makes this journey special. Taaza Khabar was always intended to push the boundaries of storytelling in India, blending humor with suspense while featuring relatable characters. To see it not only compete with but surpass global and regional favorites is a testament to the growing appetite for fresh, high-quality content. Bhuvan has truly outdone himself, and with an incredible cast, it’s no surprise that audiences have embraced Season 2 with open arms. We’re beyond thrilled with the response, and this motivates us to bring even more impactful stories to the screen.”
Following the phenomenal success of ‘Taaza Khabar Season 2’, the Indian OTT space has experienced a reshuffling of popular shows. ‘The Rings of Power’ and ‘The Great Indian Kapil Show’ now hold the second and third spots, respectively. Other notable mentions include ‘Sector 36’, starring Vikrant Massey, in sixth place, and ‘Thalaivettiyaan Paalayam’, a Tamil adaptation of ‘Panchayat’, rounding out the top rankings.
