After returning to films this year with Anurag Kashyap’s Manmarziyaan (2018), actor Abhishek Bachchan has revealed his next project. He will be joining the cast of Amazon Prime Video’s Breathe for its second season.
The actor is the latest to make the move to digital. Actors like Saif Ali Khan and Nawazuddin Siddiqui and actresses like Swara Bhasker and Radhika Apte have already acted in shows like Sacred Games, It’s Not That Simple and Ghoul.
Bachchan revealed on Twitter that he would be making his “digital debut” with Breathe’s second season.
The show, produced by Abundantia Entertainment, picked up two awards for Best Popular Web-Series and Best Popular Male Actor (for R Madhavan) at the 18th Indian Television Academy (ITA) Awards earlier this month.
Director Mayank Sharma will return for the second season and writers Bhavani Iyer, Vikram Tuli and Arshad Syed have been named as well. There is no word yet as to when the second season will debut online.
