Emraan Hashmi in Bard of Blood
"As an audience, I genuinely liked the show," begins Emraan Hashmi when we ask him about Bard Of Blood, the Netflix original series that marked his web debut earlier this year. The espionage thriller, which arrived amidst much hype earlier this year, is gearing up for a second season. "The [initial] work has begun. We don't have a date yet, but we'll probably start shooting sometime mid-next year. The first season was entirely inspired from Bilal's [Siddiqi] book. But now, we will go beyond the book, using the cliffhanger of the final episode as our cue," shares the actor.

Bring this up with Hashmi, and he asserts that the show achieved the goals that it set out to.
