Karan Tacker is set to reprise his role as paranormal investigator Gaurav Tiwari in the second season of Bhay: The Gaurav Tiwari Mystery. The series, which premiered on Amazon MX Player, has been renewed for another season, with filming expected to begin in March.
The first season, directed by Robbie Grewal, followed the life and work of Gaurav Tiwari, who was known for investigating paranormal cases. The series also featured Kalki Koechlin and explored his professional journey as well as the circumstances surrounding his mysterious death.
Speaking about the renewal, Karan Tacker said, “The success of Bhay: The Gaurav Tiwari Mystery Season 1 has been extremely encouraging for all of us associated with the show. In today’s entertainment landscape, audience attention is hard-earned, and when a show manages to create an impact and sustain that interest, it means a great deal.”
He added, “The response and ratings have been phenomenal, and the renewal for Season 2 is a wonderful validation of the work that went into the first season. Personally, I’ve always enjoyed being part of stories that allow me to move beyond familiar territory as an actor. Bhay has been one such experience.”

Returning as Gaurav Tiwari will also require Karan to change his current appearance. The actor is presently in Scotland for another project, where he is sporting long hair and a beard.
For Bhay, Karan will adopt a shorter hairstyle and clean-shaven look, closer to Gaurav Tiwari’s real-life appearance. He is expected to return to India in December and begin preparations for the new season, including the physical transformation required for the role.
Karan said of the upcoming season, “With Season 2, we’re looking forward to building on the world we’ve created and bringing audiences another compelling chapter.”
Produced by Almighty Motion Pictures, Bhay: The Gaurav Tiwari Mystery Season 2 is expected to go on floors in March. The series will stream on Amazon Prime Video.
