Atleast Season 1 made one curious to see what was the plot all about, why will a dreaded gangster call the son of a cop in the middle of night and what was a commercial Bollywood star doing in a TV series and that too the first one for Netflix.

Sacred Games Season 2 just meanders along scene after scene, gangsters indulging in sex, crime and mouthing expletives, there is a guru and his shady ashram members, they talk about world destruction, guru quotes Indian Mythology, there is lot of mumbo-jumbo about nuclear attack on Mumbai, cops are able to reach and link all activity leading to the nuclear attack without much procedural investigation and so on and everyone in sight mouth more expletives.

After a while you lose interest. There is hardly any character you care for. I watched the 8 episodes over 5 to 6 days. Maybe because it based on a book that the series seemed so lifeless and the makers had to follow the story and couldn't make it interesting.

Nawazuddin is such a gifted natural actor, he shines in the role of Gaitonde, his expressions and mannerisms are spot-on. Commercial Bollywood star Saif Ali Khan continues playing the low-in-confidence cop Sartaj from Season 1 and he is one of the main reason that more people watched Season 1 and may watch Season 2. Also, Surveen Chawla, who had a special appearance in Season 1 episode 1, has an extended role in Season 2 and puts in an amazing performance.

Just for these 3 actors you can watch the second Season, otherwise give it a miss.
