Get ready for Anil Kapoor's 24 Season 2

September 09, 2014 14:41 IST

Anil Kapoor in 24Anil Kapoor’s television series 24 is all set to return.

Buzz in the television industry was that the second season of the show had been indefinitely postponed after the TRPs of the first season did not match expectations.

To add to that, Amitabh Bachchan's television show Yudh on Sony Entertainment Television proved a colossal failure, thereby adding to the growing feeling that fiction shows with A-listers don’t work on television.

However, Anil Kapoor will start shooting for 24's Season 2 in October.

Says a source, “Anil took a break from movies to do the first season of 24. Likewise, he had to take a break from television to complete his films, Zoya Akhtar’s Dil Dhadkne Do and Anees Bazmi’s Welcome Back. That done, he is all set to begin shooting 24 again. In fact, the pre-production for 24 Season 2 has been on for months."
