Filming on Scam Season 2, which will focus on Abdul Karim Telgi’s 2003 Stamp Paper fraud, began on Wednesday, according to filmmaker Hansal Mehta.
Last month, Hansal Mehta, star of Scam 1992, began filming Scam season two, which follows Abdul Karim Telgi’s 2003 Stamp Paper hoax. The logo poster for the Sony LIV show Scam 2003 has been released by the producers. Pratik Gandhi, the Scam 1992 star, has been cast as Mahatma Gandhi in a new film.
The current season is a sequel to Scam 1992: The Harshad Mehta Story, which was critically acclaimed. It is based on journalist Sanjay Singh’s Hindi book Reporter ki Diary, which is credited with breaking the tale of the scam.
Hansal Mehta shared a photo of the clapboard from the sets on Instagram. Producer Sameer Nair, casting director Mukesh Chhabra, and writers Karan Vyas and Kiran Yadnyopavit were among those labeled by the filmmaker.
Tushar Hiranandani of Saand Ki Aankh fame directs Scam: 2003, with Hansal Mehta serving as showrunner. Applause Entertainment and StudioNEXT are collaborating on the series.
The series’ creators announced it last year, saying it will follow Telgi, who was born in the Karnataka town of Khanapur, on his “journey to becoming the mastermind behind one of India’s most creative frauds that shocked the entire country.””
The names of the actors who will appear in the second season have yet to be revealed by the filmmaker.
