Review:
Directed
by
Ram
Madhvani,
Aarya
season
2
follows
the
same
pattern
as
season
1.
With
similar
tone
and
chemistry,
the
weight
of
doing
something
exceptional
falls
on
Sushmita
Sen's
shoulder,
and
the
actress
is
up
for
the
challenge.
The
eight-part
series
keeps
up
the
pace
throughout
to
deliver
a
thrilling
end
which
is
sure
to
leave
the
audience
waiting
for
more.
Aarya
2
begins
with
her
return
to
India
under
pressure
from
the
prosecutor
and
the
cops
to
be
a
key
witness
in
the
drugs
cartel
case
which
will
also
help
deliver
justice
to
the
death
of
her
husband.
But
Aarya
decides
to
put
her
family
first
and
within
minutes
it
becomes
clear
that
their
safety
does
not
lie
with
the
cops.
Backed
into
a
corner,
she
does
what
Aarya
has
done
best
in
season
1,
she
claws
up
and
takes
the
challenges
head-on.
After
a
vicious
attack
that
leaves
her
with
a
bullet
wound,
Aarya
is
hell-bent
on
leaving
the
country
with
or
without
the
help
of
the
law.
However,
after
denying
the
proof
in
court
things
don't
go
as
planned.
She
not
only
let
out
her
enemies
free
but
also
ends
up
making
more
in
the
process.
With
the
prosecution
and
cops
against
her,
she
has
no
choice
but
to
return
to
the
world
of
crime.
Even
before
she
has
a
chance
to
catch
up,
the
Russians
find
her
to
settle
the
score.
If
that
is
not
enough,
Aarya's
brother
is
also
playing
a
game
of
his
own,
leaving
her
wounded
in
the
crossfire
more
than
once.
Season
2
also
follows
a
similar
intricate
pattern
of
subjective
good
versus
evil.
Aarya
as
she
says
is
just
a
working
mother
even
if
others
see
her
as
the
don,
it
is
also
something
the
makers
continue
to
focus
on.
Every
minute
of
the
show
with
Aarya
on
screen,
she
is
engaged
with
the
kids
through
her
phone,
by
feeding
them,
caring
for
their
needs
in
one
way
or
another.
While
the
kids
were
younger
in
season
1,
Aru
and
Veer
play
a
bigger
role
in
season
2.
Sushmita
Sen
gives
an
amusing
performance
as
the
scared
mother
and
the
scarred
tigress.
Her
absence
is
largely
felt
when
she
is
off-screen,
meanwhile,
Sikandar
Kher,
Virti
Vaghani
keep
the
audience
engaged
by
bringing
their
characters
to
life.
Daulat
and
Aru
have
the
most
vibrant
chemistry
with
other
characters
and
a
heavy
emotional
burden
which
the
talented
actors
bring
out
naturally.
However,
the
screenplay
of
season
2
comes
off
more
chaotic
and
rushed.
With
several
subplots
to
keep
track
of
eventually
Aarya
becomes
a
passive
character
where
things
just
happened
to
her,
instead
of
her
taking
any
active
decisions
to
change
them.
Hopefully,
in
season
3,
Aarya
Sareen
will
be
on
the
centre
stage
instead
of
receiving
help
from
everyone.
Overall,
Sushmita
Sen
holds
her
ground
in
the
dramatic
season
and
comes
out
on
top
with
a
few
mesmerising
scenes.
Aarya
2
is
easily
one
of
the
best
releases
this
month.
