Raashii Khanna Returns as Megha Vyas as ‘Farzi 2’ Shoot Gets Underway; Prime Video Has Yet to Announce Release Date

Updated: Aug 21

Raashii Khanna is officially back in Megha Vyas mode.
The actor has begun filming the second season of Farzi, sharing behind-the-scenes glimpses from the set on her Instagram account on August 13. The update provides fresh confirmation that production on Raj & DK’s counterfeiting thriller is actively moving ahead after Prime Video formally included Farzi Season 2 in its 2026 slate earlier this year.
Khanna’s post included moments from her vanity and makeup preparations, along with an image involving a ₹500 note
an obvious visual callback to the counterfeit-currency world around which Farzi is built. Her caption included “#backatit” and “#farzi2,” leaving little ambiguity about the project she had returned to.
The more important development, however, is not simply another BTS album. Three years after the first season premiered, Farzi has now moved from years of sequel discussion into confirmed production.
Prime Video has officially confirmed ‘Farzi’ Season 2
Unlike many sequel stories that rely primarily on actors hinting at future plans, Farzi 2 now has first-party platform confirmation.
At Prime Video Presents 2026 on March 19, Amazon officially announced Farzi Season 2 among its returning Indian series. The company specifically confirmed that Shahid Kapoor and Vijay Sethupathi will return for the Raj & DK crime thriller.
That makes the existence of the second season an established fact rather than a reported development.
Khanna’s latest set update additionally confirms her return as Megha Vyas, the determined officer whose investigation became increasingly entangled with Sunny’s counterfeiting operation during the first season.
What Prime Video has not announced is equally important: there is currently no officially confirmed streaming date for Season 2.
Any precise release month or date circulating elsewhere should therefore be treated as unconfirmed unless Prime Video subsequently announces one.
Why Megha Vyas remains important to the story
Khanna’s return is narratively significant because Megha was not merely a supporting investigator around Sunny’s story.
In the first season, she worked on identifying counterfeit currency and gradually moved closer to the truth surrounding Sunny, played by Shahid Kapoor. Prime Video’s own episode description for the Season 1 finale states that Megha was getting close to uncovering a “devastating truth,” while Sunny faced a heavy consequence for his involvement in crime.
That unfinished thread leaves Megha well positioned to play a major role when the story resumes.
The original series follows Sunny, a gifted artist who discovers that his talent can be used to manufacture near-perfect counterfeit currency. His operation eventually brings him into conflict with Michael, Vijay Sethupathi’s unconventional law-enforcement officer determined to dismantle the counterfeit network.
Megha sits differently within that conflict. Her professional investigation and personal connection with Sunny create a potential collision between the person she knows and the criminal operation she is trying to expose.
‘Farzi’ premiered more than three years ago
The first season arrived on Prime Video on February 10, 2023.
Prime Video’s official trailer credits Shahid Kapoor, Vijay Sethupathi, Kay Kay Menon, Raashii Khanna, Bhuvan Arora, Zakir Hussain, Chittranjan Giri and Jaswant Singh Dalal, with Amol Palekar, Kubbra Sait and Regina Cassandra also among the ensemble. Raj & DK created and directed the series, while the writing team included Raj & DK, Sita R. Menon and Suman Kumar. D2R Films produced the show.
The long interval between seasons makes the current production updates particularly useful. Rather than another promise that Season 2 is being developed, viewers are now seeing the principal actors actually return to the set.
Shahid Kapoor had already signalled production activity earlier in 2026, and Khanna’s August update now shows Megha’s portion of the new season underway as well.
Raashii’s BTS photos are public not an ‘exclusive’ anymore
There is an important sourcing distinction for any updated version of this story.
Bollywood Hungama reported on August 11 that it had obtained exclusive photographs showing Khanna filming Farzi 2.
Two days later, however, Khanna herself published BTS material from the production on Instagram.
So an article published now should not describe the currently circulating pictures generically as “exclusive BTS snaps” unless it is specifically referring to the earlier photographs obtained by that publication.
The cleaner current angle is that Raashii Khanna has herself confirmed her return to the set through her social-media post.
What has Prime Video revealed about Season 2?
Very little about the actual plot.
Prime Video’s 2026 announcement confirms the return of Farzi, Raj & DK, Shahid Kapoor and Vijay Sethupathi but does not provide a detailed Season 2 synopsis.
Khanna’s photographs likewise reveal no meaningful story spoilers.
That means claims about new villains, character deaths, major crossovers or detailed plot directions should not currently be presented as confirmed unless supported by subsequent official material.
The strongest expectations come directly from unresolved Season 1 storylines: Sunny’s counterfeiting operation, Michael’s pursuit and Megha moving closer to discovering the truth.
Anything beyond that is speculation.
The Celebrity Hour Take
Raashii Khanna’s return matters because Farzi 2 is finally crossing an important line between sequel anticipation and tangible production.
For years, the most obvious question around the series was whether its open-ended first season would receive a continuation. Prime Video has now answered that formally, while the actors’ set updates show that the continuation is no longer just sitting on a development slate.
Megha could also be one of Season 2’s most consequential characters. Sunny’s criminal life and his relationship with her cannot remain comfortably separated once her investigation reaches the truth. The first-season finale deliberately left that tension unresolved.
For now, though, the most useful update is straightforward: Raashii Khanna is back, filming is underway, and Prime Video has not yet announced when audiences will see the finished season.
Sources & Verification
This report was independently researched using Prime Video and Amazon’s official material for Farzi, including the platform’s March 2026 announcement confirming Season 2 and its original 2023 trailer and programme information.
Raashii Khanna’s return to production was cross-checked against coverage embedding her August 13 Instagram post. Separate reporting from August 11 was used only to establish that filming had already started before Khanna publicly shared her own BTS material.
No official Farzi 2 release date or detailed Season 2 synopsis was located during this research.
