Beyhadh 2 is a spiritual successor of famous 2016 series of Beyhadh starring Jennifer Winget, Kushal Tandon, Aneri Vajani The first promo was released on 1 October 2019, featuring Jennifer Winget as Maya Jaisingh.[3]

Talking about the show, Jennifer Winget said, "In Beyhadh, Maya was looking for love and was hungry for Arjun's attention. But in Beyhadh 2, Maya is back with an agenda and she has hatred in her mind. Everyone wanted to know, who Maya is in the first season but now everyone is aware of the lengths Maya can go to get her things done."[4]

Due to the coronavirus lockdown, on 20 April 2020, the show was cancelled by the channel along with two other shows, Patiala Babes and Ishaaron Ishaaron Mein. A producer, Prateek Sharma, conceded to the network's actions, describing them as being "in the best interest of all the concerned parties, including producer, actors, writers and the rest of the crew."[5] In a statement to Times of India, the channel stated that production on the shows stopped in March, due to the Covid-19 spread. They noted that the Beyadh 2 narrative was "time-bound", and the Covid delay made it difficult for the network to finish telling the series' story to the end.[6]

Reception

Times Of India stated, "The plot of the show is intriguing and fast-paced. The sequence of events is well-aligned and it makes for an interesting watch. What stands apart is the outstanding cinematic visuals, something that the viewers were also a witness to in the first season. The background score adds to the mystery element".[7]
