What BollyAI Thinks

Season 2, released July 30, 2021, was the show's critical peak at 86 percent, as the treasure hunt expanded in scope and the stakes escalated to match the fanbase's investment. Critics appreciated the show's commitment to its own soapy logic - the plotting is outlandish by design, and Season 2 leaned into that register rather than apologising for it. The new characters and expanded location shooting gave the season visual freshness. Audience reception stayed consistent with Season 1, confirming a loyal base rather than meaningful growth beyond the initial lockdown audience capture.
