As per sources, Pankaj Tripathi who was seen in a brief but prominent role of Guruji, will reportedly finish his first international schedule in Cape Town and then resume the remaining shoots in Mumbai. Speaking about his character, he had earlier told PTI, “My character was kind of kept hidden. I shot for the series for just one day after the main shooting was over. They thought ‘Let’s bring this character into the light’. Initially, that was not the plan. Something happened that they didn’t announce this differently and I am not someone who likes tom-tomming. It was a small role in the beginning, so we did not promote it as if it were a main one in the first season.”

Directed by Vikramaditya Motwane and Anurag Kashyap, Sacred Games season 2 will be releasing in later part of 2019.
