Prime Video India has just launched the trailer for the hotly anticipated new season of its hit show ‘Mumbai Diaries’. Along with the trailer, we also have a release date for Mumbai Diaries Season 2. The series will premiere on Prime Video worldwide on 6th October, 2023, that is next week.
As guessed by Binged in a previous writeup, Mumbai Diaries Season 2 will focus on the horrifying floods that devastated Mumbai back in 2005. On 26th July 2005, a sudden cloudburst hit Mumbai, leading to an incessant deluge, flash floods and more than a thousand people losing their lives in the mayhem. Cars were stuck on flooded streets, some even one on top of the other; rainwater gushed into ground-floor premises; and thousands of people were stuck on roads, railway stations, offices and more, with no means to reach home.
People walking on the roads disappeared down manholes, their bodies turning up days later in drains or on the shore. Scores of people died inside their cars, stuck in swirling flood water. It was a disaster of terrifying proportions; and the Mumbai Diaries Season 2 trailer captures all of it in minute, blood-curdling detail.
As in Season 1, Mumbai Diaries Season 2 shows how the team of doctors at the fictional Bombay General Hospital rise up to meet the challenge of coping with the deluge of flood-affected people brought into the hospital for treatment. The series also shows them grappling with their personal demons amidst the larger chaos.
Mohit Raina, Konkona Sen Sharma, Mrunmayee Deshpande, Satyajeet Dubey, Shreya Dhanwanthary, Natasha Bharadwaj, Tina Desai, Prakash Belawadi among others, return in Mumbai Diaries Season 2. Parambrat Chatterjee and Riddhi Dogra are the new additions to the cast of Mumbai Diaries Season 2.
Mumbai Diaries Season 2 is produced by Emmay Entertainment, and created and directed by Nikkhil Advani. It premieres on Prime Video on 6th October, 2023. Have a look at the trailer of the series –
