Ekta Kapoor’s popular action-thriller comedy web series ‘Apharan’ season 2 debuted on Voot Select a couple of months ago and will now makes its way to ALTBalaji on 24th May, 2022.
Where it might seem to be an ordinary news, there’s an interesting angle to it which we highlighted back when ‘Apharan’ season 2 was announced to premiere on Voot Select instead of Ekta Kapoor’s very own OTT platform ALTBalaji.
Most of Ekta’s shows like ‘Cartel’, ‘Mai Hero Bill Raha Hu’, ‘Broken But Beautiful’, ‘Code M’, ‘Bicchoo Ka Khel’, ‘Bebakee’, ‘Dark 7 White’ and many more including season 1 of ‘Apharan’ itself have been launched on ALTBalaji, which is also a logical thing to do when you also own the platform.
But when ‘Apharan’ season 2 made its way to Voot Select instead of ALTBalaji it did not make much sense. It intrigues why would a producer drop the sequel season of a show on a different streaming service despite the first one running on one’s own platform and also being touted as an ALTBalaji original?
What’s more surprising is why release the show now on ALTBalaji after two months of its premiere on another platform. While the first season was quite popular the second one failed to impress the viewers as much.
