Kriti Kharbanda and Arjun Rampal’s entry elevates buzz for Rana Naidu Season 2

Kriti and Arjun in Rana Naidu Season 2

The makers of Rana Naidu are back with an exciting second installment after the success of the show's first season in 2023, which included standout performances from Rana Daggubati and Venkatesh Daggubati. Due in large part to the exciting new cast members, Kriti Kharbanda and Arjun Rampal, the internet was ablaze when the Season 2 trailer was released online.

Fans have already expressed their admiration for the new pairings and intense visuals teased in the trailer, suggesting that Karan Anshuman's gritty action-drama is upping the ante this time around. Arjun Rampal's debut in the Rana Naidu universe and Kriti Kharbanda's comeback to the screen have added excitement to the already well-liked series.

Social media platforms have since been flooded with fan reactions. One admirer of Kriti wrote, “Will watch only for you Kriti, you are my childhood crush. How time flies—still remember when I first watched your movie Shaadi Mein Zaroor Aana. Now my queen has debuted in a web series.”

Another supporter chimed in with unreserved affection, saying, “Loved the trailer. @kriti.kharbanda. Super super proud of you always. So glad to see you back. Can’t wait for 13 June. Sending you lots of love and positivity always. Biggest biggest [fan] from Singapore always. Keep shining as always.”

While fans appreciated the performances of Abhishek Banerjee and Venkatesh in Season 1, some felt the plot could have been stronger. One viewer remarked, “Apart from Abhishek and Venkatesh sir's acting, nothing was good in Season 1—even the story wasn’t exciting. I hope Arjun sir brings some change in this season.”

The focus is squarely on Kriti Kharbanda and Arjun Rampal as the June 13 premiere date draws near. Unquestionably, their inclusion has heightened interest and expectations for Season 2, which is expected to be more complex, intense, and exciting than ever.
