Star-studded line-up

Season 2 will feature veteran actors such as Asha Parekh, Prem Chopra, and Shabana Azmi, along with seasoned filmmakers like Ramesh Sippy, David Dhawan, and Subhash Ghai. The teaser showcases engaging moments and candid conversations with these icons of Indian cinema. Prem Chopra brings a nostalgic touch by recreating his famous signature dialogue, “Prem naam hai mera, Prem Chopra.”

Subhash Ghai's surprise

Subhash Ghai is put in a spot by Arbaaz, who asks him to name two actors—one easy to work with and one difficult. Ghai’s surprised reaction hints at a revealing and entertaining conversation that fans are eager to see.

Ramesh Sippy on Sholay

Ramesh Sippy discusses his 1975 cult hit Sholay, sharing how audiences were so captivated that they stayed in their seats even during the film's interval. This anecdote highlights the enduring impact of Sholay, which was co-written by Arbaaz’s father, Salim Khan, and veteran lyricist Javed Akhtar.

Shabana Azmi on Salim-Javed and Javed Akhtar’s Struggles

Shabana Azmi talks about the intimidating reputation of the screenwriter duo Salim-Javed in the 1970s. She also opens up about her husband Javed Akhtar's battle with alcoholism, recalling how he decided to quit drinking to ensure his longevity and creative productivity. “He told me that he’s quitting drinking because he wouldn't be able to survive longer and do the creative work he wants to do in the near future.”

David Dhawan on Handling Govinda

Arbaaz jokes about the "No. 1" in David Dhawan's name, referencing his successful films like Coolie No. 1, Biwi No. 1, and Hero No. 1. David Dhawan shares his experience of working with Govinda in 16-17 films, admitting that he was the only one who could handle the actor’s notorious tardiness. “I was the only one who could handle him.”

Asha Parekh on Her Contributions

The promo also features Asha Parekh reflecting on her career. She discusses how someone once doubted her potential as an actress, and later proudly states in Hindi, “The industry has given me a lot. But I've also given a lot to the industry.”

Anticipation for Season 2

The Invincibles 2 promises to deliver more fascinating insights and untold stories from Bollywood’s most respected figures. With its blend of humour, nostalgia, and candid revelations, the upcoming season is set to captivate audiences just as its predecessor did.
