Actors Shahid Kapoor and Vijay Sethupathi are gearing up to reunite for the second season of their hit OTT series Farzi. According to sources, the show — created by Raj and DK — is currently in the writing stage and is set to begin filming in January 2026. Shahid has reportedly blocked six months for the shoot and is said to be pocketing his highest-ever fee — around Rs 40 crore — for the season, proving just how successful the first instalment was. Insiders hint the new season will be “bigger and more ambitious” than the previous one. Meanwhile, Shahid is putting the finishing touches on Cocktail 2 , which is currently being shot in Italy and aiming for a summer 2026 release. It also stars Kriti Sanon and Rashmika Mandanna.
