Vikas Kumar is set to reprise his role of a cop in Aarya 2, the trailer of which dropped online yesterday. Discussing showcasing a gay cop on screen, he says, “It is refreshing to see such a character, and that is why I took it up. The character [has been written] as one who belongs to a minority group, and has [different] sexual [preferences]. Season one was about my occupation, but season two will also highlight other factors.”

As ACP Khan, a cop in the narcotics department who is in search of a pen-drive that is linked to a drug racket, Kumar shares screen space with Sushmita Sen in the Ram Madhvani-helmed venture. It will air on Disney+Hotstar.
