Season 2 of 'Satyamev Jayate' likely next year

Following the success of his debut television show 'Satyamev Jayate', Bollywood star Aamir Khan is keen on bringing its second season by next year.

Aamir, 47, made his debut on small screen with the social issue-based show, highlighting problems like female foeticide, dowry, inter-caste marriage and others. "On an emotional level, I would want Season 2 of the show. Hopefully, by next year we should come up with next season," Aamir told reporters here.

"I remember few people telling me that this show is a social (one) and it will not work. But seeing the impact it has had....it has proved cynics wrong," he said. Before the makers intend to go ahead with the second season of 'Satyamev Jayate' they would carry out ground activity by taking people's reactions about the show and gauge its impact in the society.

"Our research team will access the impact created by the show, go to different places take reaction of people. We need to understand what we had set out to do with this show have we actually achieved...reached that mark. All these things will consume two-three months," Aamir said. "Also, we have a data ready where we have got responses about the show either through e-mails, text messages, phone calls or on internet medium...we are tracking all this," he said.

After 'Satyamev Jayate' highlighted the menace of female foeticide, a number of state governments have woken up to the malice, the latest being Maharashtra.
