Meanwhile, new faces will be introduced in Sacred Games season 2, such as Kalki Koechlin whose character, Batya Abelman, was created only for the series. She is a loyal follower of Guruji, and the actress said that she has a personal connection to the role.
"I grew up with meditation centres. I grew up with these kinds of communal workshops on how to better yourself as a person," Koechlin said in an interview with NDTV. "And listening to long stories, lectures. Everyone thought they were a guru. It wasn't just the guru, it was everyone. So I know what that feels like."
