Context
Why does this story matter?
Created by director duo Raj Nidimoru and Krishna DK, the fast and edgy series garnered appreciation from audiences worldwide.
Initially, the scamster drama was intended to be made into a film but the project was closed due to unforeseeable circumstances.
After eight years, Kapoor suggested it be made in a series due to its hefty content that was difficult to fit into a film.

At the recently held Zee Cine Awards, Kapoor interacted with the media and stated, "I am sure there will be a Farzi Season 2, but these things take time. Post-production takes one-and-a-half to two years."
Further, he elaborated that the show is dubbed in 35-40 languages and asserted that there are still around two years left before the release of the second installment.
Production

The directors already had the idea of how they wanted to proceed with the script after leaving Season 1 on a cliffhanger.
The reports suggested that the production of Farzi will roll out after the completion of Citadel, followed by Manoj Bajpayee's The Family Man 3.
