Umesh Bist shared details about ‘Gyaarah Gyaarah’ Season 2.
As Raghav Juyal, Dhairya Karwa and Kritika Kamra’s ‘Gyaarah Gyaarah’ ended on a cliffhanger, director Umesh Bist revealed that there’s more than what meets the eyes.
Umesh Bist’s ‘Gyaarah Gyaarah’ is not just your run-of-the-mill thriller; it’s a mind-bending ride through time that flips the script on investigative dramas. Set across three decades—1990, 2001, and 2016—this series is like a well-brewed cup of mystery with a splash of science and a dash of mysticism to keep things spicy. Starring the dynamic trio of Raghav Juyal, Dhairya Karwa, and Kritika Kamra, *Gyaarah Gyaarah* has been making waves, and not just in the temporal sense!
With critics and fans alike showering the show with love, it’s no surprise that the finale left everyone hanging on by their fingernails. That cliffhanger? Totally intentional, according to Umesh Bist. In an exclusive chat with News18 Showsha, when quizzed about the tantalizing ending, Bist admitted, “Of course, we planned it that way! Every episode needed a hook, and the final episode? Well, it had to be a whopper! The audience’s love has been overwhelming, so yes, more seasons are definitely on the horizon. We’ve only just begun to peel back the layers of this story, and trust me, one season barely scratches the surface.”
When asked how he felt about the series now that it’s out in the wild, Bist’s response was refreshingly candid. “As a creative, you’re always restless. Satisfaction? What’s that? You’re constantly tweaking, nervous about every little detail. But that’s what keeps the magic alive. I’m happy with ‘Gyaarah Gyaarah*/’, but there’s always room for more. Each day on set brought unexpected moments of brilliance, things we didn’t plan for but turned out to be pure gold. That’s the stuff that makes you excited to come to work every day.”
On his growth as a director, Bist reflected on how ‘Gyaarah Gyaarah’ pushed him into uncharted waters. “Mystery and mysticism have always fascinated me, and this project was a playground for those themes. It’s not just about telling a story; it’s about making quantum physics, Advaita Vedanta, and the mysteries of time relatable to everyone. Like that scene with the clockmaker—breaking down complex ideas into something simple was a challenge I embraced. Working with such a talented cast and crew was a joy, and I’m already itching to dive into the next season with them.”
Set in the misty, mystical landscapes of Uttarakhand, ‘Gyaarah Gyaarah’ follows the journey of Yug Arya, a police inspector in 2016, whose life takes a detour into the surreal when he starts receiving mysterious transmissions from Shaurya Anthwal—a man trapped in the years 1990, 1998, and 2001. The twist? These timelines align for just one minute at 11:11 pm every night, turning a humble walkie-talkie into a gateway across decades. With this narrow window of connection, Yug and Shaurya must piece together clues from the past and present to crack cases that defy the boundaries of time.
In ‘Gyaarah Gyaarah’, time isn’t just ticking; it’s practically dancing to its own tune. So, if you’re ready for a series that’s as much about bending your mind as it is about solving mysteries, this is one show you won’t want to miss. Season 2? You better believe it’s coming, and it’s going to be one wild ride!
