“Great thing about Hostages is that nothing is as it seems”, opines Hostages’ director Sudhir Mishra. The web series is an official adaptation of an Israeli series by the same name. A crime thriller at its core, Hotstar Specials Hostages revolves around the life of a renowned surgeon who is ordered to assassinate the chief minister, in exchange for the survival of her family. Starring Ronit Roy Bose and Tisca Chopra, Season 1 was well received by audiences across the country.
Just days ahead of its Season 2 launch, Show runner Sudhir Mishra talks about the franchise and what unfolds in season 2 he adds, “Great thing about Hostages is nothing is as it seems, the way Ronit played in the beginning he seemed a villain and then suddenly things unfolds. Tisca’s character was amazing in season one as she was seen as a mother, doctor and when the two character come together its an excellent screenplay”.
He further adds, “The second season of Hostages looks exciting with many things happening, suddenly things turn over its totally unexpected, you think its all over and boom it begins again. Season 2 clearly opens a lot, the characters and way the screenplay unfolds the plot and shooting, its amazing hats off to the entire team”.
