Anil Kapoor,
who starred in and produced "24", the Indian adaptation of the
eponymous show, is geared for its second season, and says viewers will
be treated to some new cast members.
Anil, who has starred in a season of the American "24", brought a 'desi'
version of the show to Indian TV screens with the same title via Colors
in 2013. It was a refreshing change not just in terms of the concept
and production values, but also had an impressive line-up of actors like
Shabana Azmi, Tisca Chopra and Mandira Bedi.
Now a second season will soon be in place.
"We will have a new star cast, a lot of new people are going to be there," Anil, who himself essayed Anti-Terrorist Unit chief Jai Singh Rathore in the show, told IANS here.

Asked if the trend of adapting foreign TV shows for the Indian small
screen -- the latest being "Sumit Sambhal Lega", which is adapted from
"Everybody Loves Raymond" -- can be equated to the idea of 'playing
safe', the 58-year-old shared: "There is nothing wrong with adaptations.
It is, after all, a business. You can get a good story from anywhere,
so why not?
"Some people make remakes of Telugu and Tamil (films and shows), some
from English... So if you find something good and exciting... today the
world has become one, so globally, wherever you get a good story from,
you should go ahead."
