Abhay Mahajan of Pitchers fame on his character in the second edition of the OG series and life in the interim

Abhay Mahajan
After seven years of waiting, TVF is back with the second season of Pitchers with Naveen Kasturia, Abhay Mahajan and Arunabh Kumar. Wondering why the fourth member of the foursome — Jitendra Kumar — is missing from the series? Makers claim that creative and logistical issues kept the actor away. While he will be missed in the crazy start-up story, Mahajan — who plays Saurabh Mandal in the OG series — claims that they were aware of his absence when they began reading the script two years ago. “We were not shooting, but we were in talks. So, we were aware of [Jeetu’s absence]. We were originally scheduled to shoot the series in September, but I was in France for a play. They had to push the April dates because I was getting married in May. So, we finally began shooting in June.”
